Last year Hansen averaged 10.8 carries/game, this year he is averaging 12.0.

Encapsulates what I thought ... numerous CyHawk games (and others), with how this game unfolded, ISU would've lost most of the time.
I swear...
Sama had 47 yards on 12 carries with a long of 11 yards
Hansen had 46 yards on 11 carries with a long of 11 yards
The difference between the two was practically negligible on the game... but people act like Hansen was heads and shoulders above Sama.
Most of the current commits, and these guys for next year.
2027 Iowa State Cyclones Football Visits
2027 Iowa State Cyclones football team visit list.
Haven't seen it mentioned a ton but I felt like the Ireland travel might be hitting. 3 straight weeks of intensity and being ~12 days since traveling across the world. I don't think we wore down per se but sputtered a bit in the late 1st half and 3rd quarter.
With that said, picking up the flag on perhaps one of the most clear running into the punt returner penalty flags in the history of football - and no, our guy didn't push their guy into our guy - changed every ounce of a momentum in that game. I truly believe had the officials not somehow picked up the flag (something I will wonder about on that specific play for the rest of my life) - we would have gone down and scored to make it 13 to 0, and the boat race would have been on. I sincerely believe that that specific call and that specific timing changed every aspect of the game. Picking up the flag in the manner they did was egregious and quite intentional. And because they picked up the flag, there was no penalty, and thus there is no record or history of it happening in no accountability whatsoever. A very, very, very sneaky way to directly and meaningfully impact a game. And it almost worked. F*ckers.
F*cking f*ck Iowa. Tougher for longer baby!

Iowa holding the ball for 30-some plays, 160-ish yards, and 10 points sandwiching an Iowa State 3-and-out would have sunk many a Cyclone team of years past, let alone a punt returner running into somebody and giving Iowa the ball (hello 2019) or only getting 6 points out of two excellent early drives (too many examples to count).
You're right but today Rocco was just slightly off. Two deep passes were only contested because the throws were slightly off
Sama and Burkle stood out to me with some great downfield blocking today. We had an outside sweep early on that Burkle made TWO big blocks on.
Game ball to Konrady AND Burkle. Great catch! If he doesn't make that catch, might be a different end result.
Yep, they wasted years trying to groom his son, but that was a disaster, and Phil Parker is too old and never seemed to have the desire to be a head coach. They'll be hiring from outside.
I'm guessing he's had enough of "playing nice" when the powers that be are actively trying to sabotage our conference and ruin every program in it.

Look, I get their confidence. Not every team has a quarterback who can air it out for 64 yards a game
Overby had some drops today but did Eskildsen have any? How many targets did Esk have? Would have liked to have seen more.
He had one drop where Rocco threw him a back shoulder throw early on
