*** Official #13 IOWA STATE vs #17 Texas Game(Day) Thread ***

[CloneGuy8]

Yo. This guy is still a piece of crap, but this made me laugh.

 

[Aclone]

Could you imagine what JTS would be like next week if it was a normal year

Even better. Imagine what Jack Trice is gonna be like next YEAR!

Not quite on a platter, but I’m going to pack my back on this - throwing twice on that drive by Mensa Tom was stupid.

To some degree I get trying to go for the jugular, but after the first pass failed he should’ve tried to kill some more clock.

I’m not complaining though

They pretty much were acting like the game was over when it was 20-10 and Kolar was playing high school ball on the drive.

They were ****** anyway but then really ****** for that kind of stuff.

In the 4th quarter the commentator called us Oklahoma State. You literally have one job to do.
They gave ISU TEs props for most of the game. Just thought they were more prepared for Texas PxP. It’s like the forgot Who was leading the division.

ESPN/FOX...wouldn't it be nice from these suit guys to just say what a great win this was for ISU without the next sentence being..."Well, Matt Campbell's phone will be ringing with new coaching vacancies after today's win. Ugh...I get it but it doesn't mean I like it. It's like calling our university, garbage.

Agreed>

And they really never gave Hall credit for his running. Some of his runs off the edge were magical if you're an RB fan and they just kind of 'Hall out for a decent gain' about it.

Been babysitting grandkids all day (awesome!), so only was able to see bits and pieces. However, my techie wife has the YouTubeTV set to record all Cyclone games, so I will be enjoying the game in its entirety tonight! Isn’t she the best? I’m a lucky guy!

Enjoy! It was awesome. I won't try to spoil it and tell you who won!

It’s both a shallow and a simplistic take. One that doesn’t require research or actual acumen, so it’s easy to toss out as a first impression.

Why would you expect anything more from those folks?

 

[blutarsky]

Didn't they show some graphic about Ehlinger, something like toughest of the game or player of the game, something like that in the first half?

Sam Ehlinger is a good story and is a good QB. Just think he gets so much helium playing for Texas. I thought Purdy matched him step for step and out played him in the final moments of the game. There’s a reason why Texas had underachieved the past 4 years.

playing some MMJ tonight and this came on -- seemed to capture the mood pretty well.

Classy by CPR...

Not the greatest ISU head coach, especially towards the end, but still a class act.

 

[jdoggivjc]

If he leaves I have upmost confidence that he was 'all in' along with the successes and can't really be too upset about that.

Being sarcastic but I wouldn't be surprised if Chizik was texting with Auburn officials during games his last season in Ames.

I know you're being intentionally douchey (and I'm all here for it, LOL), but the difference would be Campbell succeeded here - Chizik didn't stay long enough to determine whether he would or not.

Agreed, but he got people believing again after the Chiz, and nobody wanted it worse than him.

Good dude, and nice to hear from him on a day like today.

 

[CloneLawman]

I love most of you!

“I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.”

 

[jdoggivjc]

Agreed, but he got people believing again after the Chiz, and nobody wanted it worse than him.

I agree. He was the perfect coach for that moment in time. He was just never going to be a long term solution. Unfortunately we didn't know that at the time.

 

[Cyched]

You think our special teams have it bad, Cal just had a game tying XP blocked

Texting wasn't a popular activity amoung middle aged men in 2007/08.
