Texas Tech: Loss
West Virginia: Win
TCU: Loss

Something I've wondered for a while, does Iowa State take these terrible pictures every year or do you have your own private stash of ridiculous offensive lineman poses?

I didn't even know they existed until someone started making them my avatars. So I'm not sure. I think they take a few gag ones every year though.

One of the two coaches likely won't survive this.

Rhoads' seat is barely room temperature. Even if we go 1-11 the only way he gets fired after this season is if the lockerroom is in open revolt.

I guess I should do an actual prediction instead of just being super pessimistic

Your 2014 Iowa State Cyclones.


North Dakota State: Win. NDSU graduated a ton of their starters and an FCS school doesn't just reload from the departure of a historically successful senior class. Plus while our defense is going to be as bad as last year I expect our offense to be decent.

Kansas State: Loss. Snyder is a wizard

Iowa: Loss. The game is going to be a pillow fight this year but ISU is more bad than Iowa.

Baylor: Loss. Hopefully not by a million. But probably by a million.

Oklahoma State: Loss.

Toledo: Win. Because we're better than the MAC, drat it.

Texas: Loss. It would be nice to get a win after what happened last year, but Strong will have Texas at least a step above where they were last season.

Oklahoma: Loss. Haven't beaten them since 1990. That's not going to change this year.

Kansas: Win. Because Kansas.

Texas Tech: Win. Going out on a limb here, but Kingsbury isn't showing himself to be a great head coach, at least not yet. And Tech isn't on another level from ISU athlete-wise like Oklahoma and Texas are.

West Virginia: Win. This is actually turning into a real rivalry and that owns.

TCU: Loss. I'd like to put this down as a win so we can go bowling, but I already picked Tech as my upset for the year and I don't see us getting a second one.

5-7 (3-6), better than last season's dumpster fire but still short of a bowl.

Kingsbury didn't win the Big XII in his very first season as head coach, so that guy is clearly a scrub.

So far the consensus prediction for TTU by our opponents:

1-4 with 1 toss-up and 6 teams yet to weigh in.

Tech and TCU are the next level above the cluster of failure that is Iowa State/Kansas/West Virginia. So they're a default upset pick.

Are there any B1G teams that aren't looking at their schedule and going "No way we don't win ten games"?

Can I count the inevitable second-tier bowl game against an unmotivated SEC team?

Don't see why not.

You'll light up our rebuilt back 7 after losing to NDSU and Paul can be so so proud of going 2-10.
