Iowa State got off to a 1-3 start this season. If the Cyclones had looked too far ahead, the scene might not have been pleasant.
“If we would have looked ahead, probably a lot of guys would have quit or bailed,” ISU coach Matt Campbell said. “We didn’t.”
Now Iowa State has won four straight games and has a decent chance at the Big 12 Championship Game. If the Cyclones and OU win out, they would meet December 1 in Arlington.
But Campbell says looking too far ahead remains unadvisable.
“To be able to turn things around a little bit and start to have some success, it’s the same situation,” Campbell said.
