Cyhawk postgame thread

Beating Iowa is fun. It would be cool to do this every year from now on.

Offensive play calling was too conservative and it didn’t seem like we tried to take any real chances.

Oh, and Gronowski is horrible. Iowa paying $2.1mil for him and he turned into a scared little baby…this is so good it has to be fattening.

What impressed the heck out of me was that Iowa has one of the top offensive lines and we only rush three, but we stopped the run game amazingly.

ISU went for long passes several times that didn't connect and Overly dropped a TD in the first quarter.
 
I'm pretty sure the tipped pass that Burkle caught was tipped at the line of scrimmage, not just a bad pass to Townsend.

So tipped twice, making Burkle's catch even more impressive!
Damn, going to have to check that play again. Even crazier play, if so - but not Rocco off in that case, just fortunate (which I'll take every time, which is what I immediately told my wife when it happened.)
 
Some Cy fans, for some unknown reason, seem to want to give Hassle the benefit of the doubt but he is empirically a douche.

Yeah I don't know listen to him much but anything seems to be just kind of said with a smirk and people are quick to take it really seriously.

Like in that clip, he's not actually screaming about the FG, it's said with some humor.

Now Eickholdt or whatever his name is and that neckbeard dude are the pinnacles of Haydenism to a T.
 
The first time I saw that I thought it was a busted play. Then I thought Iowa was moving in slow motion. They I yelled, “What the hell was that?”

And then they ran it again. I’m not sure why they stopped, ISU seemed as befuddled by it as I was.

I think it takes about 3 plays to adjust to that. That’s HS football level offense. It’s only viable for a handful of plays.
 
Looking at those scores, other good teams don't have any issue scoring points and beating the hawks decisively. How the hell do we keep making their D look like the 85 Bears year after year? Would be nice to lay the wood for once.

Aside from maybe Missouri ISU's not on the same level as those other teams.
