Better than the Gator? I guess it pays out more and is in Orlando rather than Jacksonville. ??

Iowa State has the 13th ranked passing defense in the country. DJ throwing is not going to happen unless something changes between now and then.

I'm glad you are a fan and not a coach. Taking an opponent lightly is a nice recipe for a butt kicking.
Iowa State has the 11th ranked defense in the country right behind Clemson, our coaches better not be morons and take them lightly. They have a great coach and not many blue chippers, but they can play. Running the ball on Iowa State probably won't be easy.

I may not be a coach, but I can research.

And Big 12 Conference is ranked lower than the ACC even, and we have looked good against their better teams.

It makes me sick to think we won't be playing in the last game of the year, or even on December 31 or January 1. Today is a bummer all the way around.

We may well get beat, but it doesn't say much for us to play in a bowl game against an unranked 5 loss team.
I was personally hoping for Iowa.

No one is impressed by a win (or loss) to Iowa State. They are like playing Wake Forest except not as prestigious.

What a terrible season. My wife’s birthday is the 29th. We ALWAYS seem to play on the 29th lately. Playoffs etc. I could use the playoff excuse before, but I don’t think I am getting to watch this one.
2021 just be done already.

This actually looks like a pretty tough opponent despite the 5 losses...All their losses were close: Lost by 2 to Big 12 Champ & #7 Baylor...Lost by 7 to # 16 Oklahoma...Lost by 10 to #10 Iowa...Lost by a combined 6 points to 6-6 teams in West Virginia & Texas Tech... Their best wins were by 3 over #8 Oklahoma St., by 23 over Texas, and by 13 over Kansas St.... Hope the Tigers show up for this one because Iowa St. looks like a tough team that shows up... to attest to this is the fact that their largest margin of defeat all year was by 10 points to #10 Iowa

Years from now I can imagine someone looking at the bowl we went to this year and laughing at the name. It appears we are the underdog even if I St. has 5 losses. This game will mean a lot about how we view this season. 10-3 ain’t bad even if we wanted more. But losing to this opponent, giving us 4 losses and the defeat to think about all year would suck.
