If every game Iowa State played in were ISU +3.5, they would've covered against #4 Oklahoma, #7 Baylor, and #16 Iowa.

We should win this game, but this is about as good as a 7-5 team can be. 3.5 seems right to me, and I don't think it has to do with our history.

Tomorrow is going to suck. We might lose. We'll likely win with something like a 24-20 game. It'll be boring, frustrating, and a true lose-lose situation.

With that said, I'm getting up at 8AM for a 14 hour day of drinking and Brian Kelly can't stop me.


You can’t drink all day

I saw the ends of their losses to IA and to OU. My point was that ND's history would be a factor (among others) to logically take into account in setting this spread.
