Just so everyone is clear

[Stewo]

Iowa State didn't win this football game. Nope. The Huskers handed the game to ISU. They caught the interceptions. They forced the fumbles. They recovered the fumbles. They also kicked our 52 yard field goal and threw our 47 yard touchdown pass.

At least, this all according to anyone outside of the ISU camp. I seriously cannot believe how much people are trying to discredit ISU's win today. It's fine though. At the end of the day, our boys got the 'W'. Isn't that all that really matters anyway?

What an ***. Get exited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IOWA STATE IS BACK!

Just so everyone is clear.... if we had had ARob and AA in the game today, we'd have won by 30. :cute:

Not an Al Davis fan, but he has the best quote in all of sports: 'Just Win Baby'

 

[Enginerd]

And for once I am proudly willing to admit we won a game we didn't deserve to thanks to coaching, players' heart, and a little luck. This feels about as good as I dreamed for about 30 freaking years.

 

[Drive4cy]

That seems to be a common thought around the internets. Just a fluke game, Iowa State isn't any good, etc. Not many people mentioning how we played without the best RB in the conference or our QB and leader on offense.

Just remember, you folks were saying the exact same things when Iowa beat the Clones by 32 on their own field.

I'll leave it at that.

How nice is it that that is not an excuse for a loss.

I believe there was a lot of credit to Iowa and their defensive game plan...

 

[Chizit]

Yeah they defffinetly forced those fumble by themselves.

If we didn't win the game then how did they? They didn't force any turnovers and there offense didn't play very well for a margin of the game.

Great. Anything else I should know?

Some of you, yes...but there were many of you claiming that Iowa was just lucky, and that a 2nd grader could have picked off some of those ducks Arnaud was throwing up.

Man, I wish the Hawks would leave our boards alone after we play our annual game. U won. easily. now leave?

 

[TarHeelHawk]

Yeah...good luck next year on your deployment. Stay safe.

 

[tim_redd]

a 2nd grader could have picked off some of those ducks Arnaud was throwing up.

well that is true too...

 

[justcynn]

Fans of opponents like Iowa and Nebraska never actually lose, their teams simply beat themselves...Well - times are a changin...this Coach believes he can win and as Kirk F has proven year in and year out, nobody remembers how you win, just that you won. That sure as hell beats remembering all of the opportunities that have been lost. Something big is happening in Ames...

By "you folks" I hope you mean the people fixated on Iowa, because I certainly wasn't. Iowa is having a great year and I wish some of my fellow Cyclone fans would lay off.

Not sure about luck but I still contend the latter.

Yeah, you'd think Hawk fans would be more interested in being on their own boards, especially after a huge win. Can't blame 'em though. The crowd here is classier.
