Question;
- Thread starter Big Bobm
- Start date
.....Daiquiri......way too much credit for hogeyes. Hawkeye vodka mixed with someone's puke would be more appropriate.
I'm going with trolling Hawk fan. Regardless of how the game went or anything that was said, it'd be odd for a Memphis fan to have this much animosity towards ISU.

The feeling of superiority is based on how bad the other AAC members did in the Big 12 this year. They went T9, 11, 13 and 14. It was our mistake assuming that those trends over an entire season were going to apply to a single game with an AAC team after three weeks off.
Memphis was clearly the better team on Friday. pretty natural to think this should’ve been a W when your former league mates came over and brought up the rear in the Big 12. ISU was a team that had largely lived in close games and beat BYU and Cincy by a combined 52 pts and 300 yards.
ongrats on being Caliparis stepping stone almost 2 decades ago.

Memphis has been to 3 final fours, but 2 of those were vacated by the NCAA. So if you don’t count the vacated ones, both schools are tied with 1.
Yep. Just like the Fab Five never existed. Memphis choking vs KU in 2008 allowed me to win a big pool. That **** happened.

Couldn't remember if 2 were "vacated."
If we count Elite Eights and Sweet Sixteens, though, the two programs still aren't historically close.
Most of those for memphis still came under cheating regimes, even if they weren't fully vacated.
Yeah. I wouldn’t mind having a couple vacated final 4s.Yep. Just like the Fab Five never existed. Memphis choking vs KU in 2008 allowed me to win a big pool. That **** happened.
huge, and I mean huge difference playing in a power league. You can beat P5s when your teams are fresh in September or if you have a month to prepare for a bowl game, but try competing with P5 every weak. Look at UCF, Houston, BYU, and Cincinnati, all had a lot of football success over the past few years. They got the @sses handed to them in the Big 12. If you had to go on the road and play in Ames, don't think it would have been so easy. I respect Memphis, good team, good speed, but make no mistake about it, there is no way in hell they would get 10 wins playing in a league like the Big 12.
If you don’t count the vacated ones, Memphis has 4 elite eights and 6 sweet sixteens. ISU has 2 elite eights and 6 sweet sixteens.

So they're better, maybe much better. I won't bother with the tired stuff people are mentioning about cheating. That's just every winning college basketball program ever.
You lost me at "vastly superior basketball program". Since that cheater Calipari left you only have 3 Ncaa tournament wins in like 15 years. You also went about 8 years without even making the tournament while Iowa State was going to multiple Sweet 16s.
BTW, your city sucks, maybe work on that. I remember going to the 2016 Liberty Bowl and there's bars on all the buildings driving up to the stadium.

Serious question….who is your QB recruiting analyst? I thought Petrius (sp?) was the worst P5 QB for accuracy I had ever seen but Hill is another level of bad. It is shocking that as well as Iowa recruits linemen, tight ends, linebackers and defensive backs that they embarrass the program on the national level by trotting out QB’s that are clueless.
They can recruit adequate QB’s, they just can’t develop them so they progressively get worse. Spencer Petra’s will lead the mountain west in passing yards and TD’s this year. And be newcomer of the year, and Bobm’s tiny hawk brain will explode
Memphis has vastly superior crime also. I mean we do petty theft in Iowa. U all do the real deal
Looks to me he is getting sunshine pumped in to his back alley.
