But add in the one pass interference call that was missed in the end zone and UNI wins that game
...and they were only in the red zone because of a 60 yard reception by David Johnson, so right back at ya.:wink:
Like I said, David Johnson was the only reason that game was close. It wasn't pretty, but its a very coachable tape for the Iowa staff to work with.
I'm not overly disappointed today...saw a lot of good things and a lot of talent, coaches just need to put it together in the next few weeks before B1G play starts.
Bet you're glad the Hoks managed to slip past UNI today. A play or two is all that separates Iowa from being in the same boat as ISU right now
1. UNI is a good football team. So is NDSU. I would wager that UNI outperforms NDSU this year. David Johnson is as legit as it gets.
2. Iowa will be just fine. I'm thrilled they got away with a win today. They need to start throwing the ball down the field more. Many wide open opportunities missed today.
3. ISU is bad. Anyone with half a brain knew they were going to he bad. I've been saying it for awhile. Some on here have been saying it, but not many. A lot of people were cautiously optimistic and I had no clue why. Those same people argued with me nonstop about how I felt so I really don't care how you feel about it. We found out the truth today and I'm sorry that it hurts. There was absolutely delusion on this board for the past few months. Of course a loss like today's is going to wake people up. When I say the Cyclone fan base is delusional it's because of how they felt before this game. Everything obvious pointed to another crappy team, but a lot of you prefer to clutch onto whatever possible in order to justify your belief that it's better than it seemed and that to me is laughable. Wake up next time. You're better than that. A couple pump up youtube videos shouldn't be enough to dictate common sense.
I have to say, I really appreciate you stopping by today to enlighten us, you piece of ****.Hate to say I told ya so, but the truth is I did. Chances are the majority of you are too immature to handle it and eat crow like a real man would. I'll probably get banned for saying nothing more than what I've been saying the past few months. So much delusion in Cyclone land regarding the football team. It's been going on for awhile now. JP and Rhoads have effectively pulled a blanket over a bunch of Cyclone fan's heads and a lot of you have allowed it to happen. That's the truth.
You guys wanna listen to Stormin, and Luth, and boyd, and Woody, and Curt Schroeder, and you wanna pretend like reality is something different than what it is. The truth is Rhoads is not the answer and talent just isn't there. The sooner it is accepted the better off it will be. When is basketball season?
Whatever, we all know that football sucks. But guess what, the hawks looked pretty crappy, barely beat UNI, and 100% guaranteed would have lost to NDSU. So as bad as ISU is, Iowa is pretty bad too.......with a damn favorable schedule.
