1. Nothing Ever Changes And Life Is Stupid
Last year, I (along with many other Iowa State fans) spent the season complaining about Paul Rhoads and his inability to win close games. In games against Iowa, Toledo, Kansas State, and Oklahoma State, the Cyclones blew multiple chances in the second half to put the game away.
We’ve now had two chances (three if you count UNI, but I’m willing to give a pass on that one) to put games away in the fourth quarter. Instead, Iowa State continues to crap the bed. There are a few possible explanations for this.
