Ten points in Provo, and the room quit watching the scoreboard the moment Aiden went down.
The emotional rollercoaster
Iowa State fans’ misery during the game, every 15 minutes. Up is worse.
What happened
Thursday night in Provo, Iowa State lost 10-24 to BYU and fell to 3-3, which is the tidy version of events. The messy version arrived the moment Aiden Flora went down, and the fanbase stopped watching the scoreboard entirely. Misery jumped from 24 to 77 in seven days, a number that feels less like a rating and more like a diagnosis. "Im gonna throw up," one fan wrote. Another, briefer: "This season is fucking over." Three wins, and already grieving.
