Iowa State's resume

They lost to Iowa and Texas.

It doesn't matter if you have a Ph.D. from Harvard if you also rub mashed potatoes all over your resume.

Yeah Notre Dame has a better winning resume, IMO.

Who has 2 better wins than the Cyclones?

As of now, no one. But they also have two pretty bad losses so they need a lot of help to reach the playoff. Incredibly unlikely IMO.

And will lose again before the season is over.......

Maybe. The best chances are Farmageddon in Manhattan or Ok St at home. They aren't losing to WVU or Baylor.

Even if Iowa State finishes 11-2 with a Big 12 CCG, they would be left out. The committee would stick a 3 loss "name brand" in the playoffs before the Cyclones unfortunately.

I hope they win the big 12.

To TH03:

I’m stupid, you’re smart.
I was wrong you were right.
You’re the best I’m the worst
You’re very good looking, I’m not attractive

Should have edited, it's a better overall resume, not that those wins by themselves are better.

I'd disagree, but I suppose it's close. I put a lot of stock into beating OU on the road, where they hardly ever lose.

Either way, the two losses to Iowa and Texas are bad. If they had beaten one of them they'd be in the top 10, but not with both.

How are those wins better than two top 5 wins, one on the road?

I'm not saying they are, but the way the world works is those teams aren't top 5 teams now (fair or not)

Is beating TCU really that impressive of a win? They very well could lose 2 or 3 more games this year.
