La Gesse Column: Changing ISU’s Big 12 perception starts with Warren
Ames Tribune sports editor Bobby La Gesse
Mike Warren is a realist. At least when it comes to Iowa State football. He knows the rest of the Big 12 will see the Cyclones 1-2 record and come to the same conclusion.
“I think everyone is going to count us on the schedule as a win,” Warren said.
It’s likely true, even Kansas, where the winless Jayhawks likely view ISU as its best shot at a Big 12 win this Saturday (11 a.m., FSN).
There is only one way to change it. Win games and that begins with more players responding like Warren.
“I don’t like it,” Warren said. “That makes me want to push myself to even greater lengths and play better, practice harder, work out harder and watch more film.”
