Last weekend was not pleasant. Iowa State suffered its first loss to Texas Tech of the Matt Campbell era and did so in absolutely gut-wrenching fashion. Let’s take a look at a few things we learned last weekend.
Slow starts are absolute killers
This shouldn’t be news to anybody, but Iowa State has made a bad habit of slow starts at both the game and season level under Matt Campbell. I do love being a “second half” team and knowing that the team gets better as the game wears on, but that doesn’t have to mean you have to be bad in the first half.
