Say what?

There are two questions it seems like every reporter is asking Iowa State football players these days.
1.) Are you guys watching how Coach McCarney is doing?
2.) Do these upsets give you hope?
The Cyclone’s season has already reached the destination point where the answer, “we don’t consider ourselves under dogs,” answer is no longer reasonable. Most players are realistic and Coach Chizik is honest. Monday he said everything would have to go right to in order for the Cyclones to pull off an upset Saturday at Jack Trice Stadium. Sitting 1-5 and near the bottom of the Big 12 North Division, a win against anyone is rapidly turning into an upset.
And fans thought the sky was falling after the Longhorns dropped two in a row? Imagine how they would feel if their team lost to a Cyclones team whose lone win of the season came at the hands of the Hawkeyes who suddenly don’t look like as great of a team as most people thought.
After Appalachian State defeated Michigan, the questions began. Now, we’ve watched Notre Dame start off 0-5, Stanford beat USC, and South Florida (McCarney’s team) travel to Auburn and win.
“There is absolutely no doubt that you can win or lose every game you have left bad on the way things are going,” said Texas coach Mack Brown during his weekly press conference Monday.
Do you think the Cyclones have an upset brewing on their schedule?
They have plenty of opportunities coming up over the next three games.
Saturday: Texas
October 20: Oklahoma
October 27: at Missouri
Take your pick. If not, you can always count on McCarney’s Bulls, or are their wins even upsets anymore?
