Iowa State cared players played ours quit.

Wtf are you talking about?

Cam gave this program 2 more quarters than he should have.

I love Cam. He's an all time Cane. But him playing was far from a selfless move. He 100% played to break Keenum's record. That's a fact. And this is no knock on him but it is true.

Where do you get cared players from?

 

[404Usernamenotfound]

Do you think he just walked up to coach and said “hey I’m out?” For real?

No, i don’t. I think it was planned. But the definition of “quit” does not change whether it was planned or not.

My opinion is either play the whole game or don’t play at all. I don’t like half way commitment. I don’t think that’s some crazy take either

Cam Ward plays game we win.

Our players quit before game.

why should Iowa State players care more than ours?

Mario inherited worst culture in college football, and only has mildly improved it.

I mean, fine, but he broke the record early on in what, his 2nd drive. He kept playing.

Not disagreeing with you but he could’ve bounced after that. He didn’t.

I never said it was a selfless move. I said he shouldn’t have played. Period.

Who quit???

Martinez got hurt and Arroyo played till the end.

They chose to sit Cam.

A lot of defensive players got hurt. Nobody quit in the middle of the game.

If you want to argue that Cam should’ve came in and shoved Emory out of the huddle, different story.

This is not on Cam.

****, Arroyo took himself out at one point cause he got nicked up. No one quit, but there are some serious changes that need to be made.

We lost. We shouldn’t have but we did. The excuse saying players (especially Cam and others who didn’t have to play) quit is ridiculous.

We’re lucky Cam did play, or that game would’ve been a bloodbath.

Campbell is the kind of coach that will hold you accountable. His players play hard. Mario is a fraud!

When (not if) Mario fails here I would go after Matt Campbell. He does more with less. The exact opposite of Mario.

Our fanbase is prob one of the dumbest so yes they prob do think that’s what happened

Easily the dumbest pound for pound fanbase in America

Whose fault is that regarding the culture? I don’t think that’s even true regarding the culture.

 

[LeavingJesusland]

The only player that quit was ward. Martinez was hurt.

I appreciate ward but this isn’t an nfl preseason game. If you’re going to “play” play the whole game. Leaving half way through is dumb.

Dumb take

X didnt even play but cam, Martinez and arroyo all who will be drafted higher than him did. that shows me something.

Easily the dumbest pound for pound fanbase in America

Chanting for Ward confirmed that

 

[CBurrr93]

Pretty obvious in hindsight cam played to set the record. So we can tone down the praise for him playing

I understand that argument but Gabriel is at 153. He got a nice lead now to actually keep the record.

 

[404Usernamenotfound]

tf ... stop the ward slander ... he was the ONLY player that shouldn't have played, and he did anyway ... cmon now

It’s not slander. Either play the whole game or don’t play and give the reps to the guy that needs it more. This isn’t complicated.

he gave us a chance ... put it this way, i respect this approach better than x's

I didn’t account for Gabriel. Fair!

You would know better but I believe they wanted to see Emory. A half was the plan for Cam.

Well if they wanted to see Emory Cam did us a HUGE favor sitting the second half hahahha.

The Anti-Ward crowd are always a gem.

Just make sure yall keep this same energy next season.
