Deficits

A running deficit is killing the Cyclones.

The first two games ISU had a rushing advantage of 120 and 44 games. But their last four games, three losses and an almost, they have deficits of -39 (SUI), -137 (UT), -79 (UNI) and tonight, -200 (NU).

Until this program can stop the run, and run the ball themselves, it will continue to be mediocre, just another team in the XII. Call it the Fine Curse.

A bowl game is a reach at this point. A North title just a bad joke. A coaching change not implausible.
