Greetings, Cyclones!

[CycloneErik]

I take it you have not seen Iowa play this season? They are a really good team. I have not been impressed at all by your defensive line or linebackers no matter what your post says. You would struggle against Weisman. Just looking at it from an outside perspective. Didnt you struggle to beat Minnesota last season?

Iowa is a really good team?
That loss is one of the most disappointing we'll see all season. There's no way that Iowa handles Tech's speed and physical play.

I don't have a good read on Tech yet, but I don't see where Iowa is a good team, or better than Tech.

Whaaaa?

I have to give credit where credit is due and Iowa is going to win 3-4 more games, compared to last season they are a good team. As for matching up to TTU's speed, am I the only one who watched them almost lose to Minnesota in their bowl game, where is this speed?

Who cares about last season? We weren't good last season. We're talking about this season, try to keep up.

If you're going to use that logic, Kansas ran for 400 yards against us last year, and only 50 yesterday. Of course, I, as a reasonable person, know that doesn't actually matter because I'm smart enough to know the transitive property doesn't mean **** in college football.

If you don't understand that, please tell me so I can stop arguing with you.

I hate Iowa, but TTU would get destroyed by Iowa.

Drinking at 2:30 on a Sunday? I like it.

Iowa gave up 26 points to a horrible offense yesterday. Tech would easily beat Iowa

Different coach, different system, different team altogether. Not great, but better than last year.

You werent good last season yet you started the season the same way you did this season, playing no one and pointing at an undefeated start only to be overwhelmed come conference play.

Troll in Sheeps clothing called it.

Thanks for answering my question. Can you ignore people on this board?

I just think Iowa would be a matchup issue for TTU like Minnesota was for you 6 months ago, just my opinion, carry on.

Yeah, I don't think anyone has a real good read on us yet. The only "decent" team we've played is TCU, and I say decent because they have a good defense. We'll learn much more in the upcoming weeks. Iowa State certainly isn't a bad team, regardless of record, and will be another decent measuring stick for our team.

That's a fair enough opinion, I suppose. It's hard to read teams that haven't played any common opponents. Even then it's difficult to read, as common opponents don't always tell the story.

The only other win Iowa will get is Purdue. Iowa has beaten no one, the only two good teams they played they lost. And to your other point about TT losing to Iowa, put down the crack pipe. You do realize that TT is a good passing team. Whats Iowa's weakness? Oh thats right their secondary blows.

I see one game on iowas schedule that I would call a win and that's Purdue. They will be dogs in the rest of them.

 

[CyBroncos]

I think they'll get another one in there somewhere, i could see them upsetting Michigan or Wisconsin in Kinnick

 

[CYEATHAWK]

I pretty much just assume we're being trolled by opposing fan bases generally. Don't really see the point in trying to make nice with other fan bases.

Don't worry.....your reputation in the cave won't be ruined if you do.

 

[CYEATHAWK]

No..........don't think so. Kingsbury and company would probably figure out Iowa's can't cover anyone right away, and not wait until 5 minutes left in the game.

 

[KillBilly]

I hope this upcoming game brings back TTU poster KillBilly and his very nice avatar.

You rang? Lol. RaiderMacht is giving y'all a fair assessment of this season's Tech squad. Our OL is improving thanks to the return of G Beau Carpenter. Tech's defense is legit. And Tech has playmakers all over the offense. The big question week to week is what kind of QB play we'll see. Glad to have a week to chat with you clones. Next season we can do it in person at your tailgates.

 

[Dr.bannedman]

Then don't reply. A Tech fan bothering to post some positive comments is a nice change of pace after the trolls we had on here last year. Thank you for the post. Welcome to CF and good luck Saturday

too condescending; dr

 

[KingBling]

I really don't think ISU wins this game, but our QB situation could make it at least a little bit interesting early on. Hopefully, KK can figure it out in a week.
