Schedule advantage before the game: UI or ISU?
- Thread starter UnbiasedHawk
- Start date
Doubling down on trying to be the stupidest hawk fan on here is not a good thing. Of course we can’t really expect too much from a guy that has to introduce his mother with hyphen.
Also, the fact that your stupid ass still talks about that billboard shows how much ******* smarter he is than you are.
Also you care more about Iowa State than you do any other team. If you didn’t you wouldn’t be here for the 13th time.
How many times has this happened?
Anyway, pretty sure ISU has another bye in November, which is a really nice time if they're in a good spot.
I wasn't saying that Matt Campbell is a bad OC either. I just think for him not having a game to maybe get a feel for everything might've been a crutch.Could be. But for whatever reason when I hear that from our fans it drives me bonkers. It is almost as bad as a sports commentator says "they are within three..." when the reality is they are down by three not within three. I also hate it when people chew loud.
So I have those things going for me
I could have sworn I once (recently) heard him say he likes a bye on week 2. Said they did it all the time at Mt Union.
We are, but what sounds better to you?
1 game of experience/gelling before playing Iowa, or 2 games of experience before playing Iowa.
Thanks.
The old JP trick was to schedule a Thursday night game week one to give his team 2 extra days before the week 2 game with the Hawks. That was absolutely intentional.
bottom line is that he's obsessed with the CYHAWK game more than anyone else in the state.
LOL keep reaching bub! Seriously though, over the last 15 years how many times has Iowa State had a bye game the week before the Iowa game?
Probably just once. But I'll bet the old Thursday night game before the CYHAWK game has happen a decent number of times.
Ok,
So you were just throwing SH** at the walls with the whole bye week theory... Glad we could clear that up.
I don’t care who you are. The fact that this is your 5th-6th-7th name on here, means you’re a ******* worthless insecure loser
It’s what makes dumbasses like this retread so pathetic. They create a whole groupthink story to try to make themselves feel better
You shoot hole after hole in their stupidity, and show how their very existence make rational people question Darwin’s theories of evolution. They get all hurt, and lash out like the children they are, and get banned.
Then to show how much they don’t care about us they re register time and again to let us know how much more important they are to us than we are to them.
They’re pathetic
Iowa State's season opener was on a Thursday night from 2006-2010. Here are the week two opponents for those years. Your theory doesn't hold much weight...
2006 UNLV
2007 UNI
2008 Kent State
2009 Iowa
2010 Iowa
Pollard became AD in 2005.
Since that time, the prior week "Thursday trick" you mention happened exactly 2 times (2009 & 2010).
2 out of 14 (14%) is a "decent number of times?" Someone is stretching to validate their own bias.

Edit: Bill Brasky beat me to it.
I’ve never seen someone get so triggered so frequently in my life. You seem like you have serious anger issues- it’s the Internet dude, it’s not that serious. Relax before you give yourself a heart attack.
I don’t think an extra week of film on Iowa is going to help very much, because 1.) their game plans against Miami OH and Rutgers will be pretty vanilla, and 2.) Iowa doesn’t really do anything scheme wise that would surprise Iowa State. KF’s philosophy is essentially we don’t care if you know what we’re doing, we are going to out-execute you anyways.
