I have been on the sidelines a lot

So, you really want to whine and cry after a monumental win like this? That's what makes you happy? OK, so what if the refs were giving Texas a little love. Did UT win? I thought ISU did? People have no complaining about the team this time around, so now everybody has to complain about the officials?

When is there a time that ISU plays that people DON'T have something to complain about? I have a feeling that even if Hoiberg goes undefeated in his first year, people will find a reason to complain about the parking at Hilton, the refs were calling too many charges, something blah blah blah.

Give it a rest folks. ISU beat up on one of the best programs in the history of the sport, in a place that nobody wins, and people are still complaining about something. Unreal.

SplitIdentity, you're never going to understand Iowa State fans because you're not an Iowa State fan. You may cheer for Iowa State but you're not a fan. You don't understand the emotional blasting Iowa State fans take constantly. You'll never understand what it means to be an Iowa State fan so stop complaining about it. If you don't like being around Iowa State fans and hearing what Iowa State fans have to say, then stop coming to this website. You're not an Iowa State fan.

I thought everybody wanted to keep Iowa out of this discussion? So how about we go ahead and do that, no? This is about ISU vs. Texas, and the officials, I see no reason to keep talking about the Hawks.

Yet you post this.
Changing your tune?

From the looks of things it was a few people venting about some bad calls that were made, it didn't turn into a ***** fest until you put your two cents in. You are the catalyst for this trainwreck of a discussion. Way to go, well done.

I almost never complain about officiating in football (B-ball -- another story), but there were a few obvious holding calls not being made. Made me crazy.
