2 running plays of 50 or more yards. Zero passing plays of over 20 yards.

To quote myself from basketball: "There is no such thing as a bad road win".

6th straight road win overall, 5 straight big 12 road wins

So that Memphis bowl game never happened? Don't feed me neutral game bs.

I’d like to note that when Houston was down deep looking like they would at least tie it, I paused the game for about a minute and it has been all Cyclones ever since.

In other news, I have a new superstition

Wanna hear from those in attendance

I think he's hurt.

He doesn't exactly throw the ball from the earhole normally but there's no reason he would just change his motion this much in a week.

Kinda boring oh hum conference road win shutout. I think I'm getting a little spoiled.

That's my take on it. By the end we were dominating them. The Sama run killed their Spirit.

Ok, ignore that part, 5 straight in the big 12 by an average of 3 scores isn't too bad.

If it wasn't prepped for in the same way as a conference game, it's pretty easy to not really care about it.

I totally agree that it's not the same as the other games, but I'm a stickler when it comes to stats.

 

[ClonerJams]

Any news on Noel?

 

[CloneLawman]

Time to pad our rushing stats during mop up duty.

You mean the "Hawkeye Special"?

Memphis isn't in the Big 12

It was just a bad cramp

 

[madguy30]

Any news on Noel?

They didn't show anything weird with him before he went out did they?

I'm guessing (hoping) cramps and they had confidence in finishing things out.

 

[cyclonespiker33]

Memphis isn't in the Big 12

The first stat he gave was 6th straight road win overall

 

[Pope]

For folks as old as me, five straight Big 12 road wins is absolutely nuts! Never thought I'd see the day.

Munenori Kawasaki say: "Noel need banana. 3 banana. Monkey eat banana. Monkey never cramp."

Hell, we've had multiple season stretches we didn't win a single conference road game.
