*** Official #16 IOWA STATE vs #15 Arizona State Big 12 Championship Game(Day) Thread ***

Campbell post game- “I’m so proud of these boys and their efforts.” Get out of here Campbell. You’re trash too

Pretty solid third post. Welcome.

Are we going to play ourselves right out of the Alamo Bowl and into Memphis?? At this point... who cares??

A performance like this should eliminate a team from any bowl game.

 

[67CY]

Good chance we see this same **** in bowl game no matter who we play

 

[Drew0311]

Maybe next year we can avoid playing the top three teams in the conference and make the championship again. This is the most Hawkeye thing ever. Play cupcakes all year and then get smashed in the championship game

Brent, CW, Trent Condon, Ken Miller......all seemed pretty confident in our guys when I was listening to podcasts this morning at the gym.

This is a straight up ass kicking going the other way.

Also, good thing about getting thumped like this is we don't have to wring our hands over missed opportunities or missed calls by the officials.

At least we have the 52nd ranked recruiting class coming in!
******* TJ gets it- you need big time talent to be big time!!

 

[Gunnerclone]

I feel so bad for all of our fans that wasted their time and money for a team and staff that didn’t care enough to show up today. Someone should offer refunds

And now we get to get sad-sacked by the Collection Agency to donate more to get better players.

We win: donate more to keep the good times rolling and keep these players!

We lose: donate more to get better players!

Scam.

Time for Heacock to go.

And they've earned it. I don't know how you can put Boise over these guys.

it's not Boise they're competing with; it's Clemson if they beat SMU. Just think - if Clemson does beat SMU, Boise gets a 3.

 

[demoncore1031]

Jackson 5 fair catches on 5 kicks that didn't reach the end zone. The one kick that went into the end zone he returns. Smart.

 

[LAClone]

Is this worse than the seasons Campbell squandered with Purdy?

 

[BadBoi]

Hoks getting trucked 18-4 by Michigan on FS1.

Who cares. So annoying.

 

[cyclonez7]

Damn you're quick to judge.

1 TD in the last 4+ quarters.

 

[Koala]

This is just depressing

 

[Cyhig]

The only good thing to come out of this is they look so dominant if Clemson wins a close game they may get the bye.

And frankly, I’d rather lose by a lot than by a couple points. Would play the “if only this one play was different” game
It’s much easier to accept defeat when you get blown out.

ASU has a great team. Hats off to them.

 

[stewart092284]

Sucks for the players. For the coaches too but they're professionals and hopefully bounce back.

And of course for the fans.

But I hated this matchup defensively. They are every DC's worst nightmare.

Elite running back + mobile QB who can throw the ball deep on the mark and a good enough OL with talented skill players.

 

[Freebird]

I’m not saying this team just pissed away everything they accomplished this season but boy does it feel like it right now

 

[TABack]

Oh Hansen sighting now we're down 28

 

[Thomasrickj]

Down by 28 and in no rush to run a play!

 

[Gunnerclone]

Not really. I mean, KU and K-State for sure, and Utah and UCF with their arrogance coming into the conference are right up there as well. But for the Big 12 to get any respect from the committee in years to come, ASU needs to make a run in this playoff... or the committee will be looking to put the MWC and AAC champs in over the Big 12 every year.

I don’t think it matters. We’re a one bid league. The precedent is set. Get used to it.
