*** Official #18 IOWA STATE vs #13 Miami Pop-Tarts Bowl Game(Day) Thread ***

[RezClone]

We have no reason to win this game and I have an awful, awful feeling about it. They have one of the better QBs we’ve seen in years.

Word on the street is he is NOT mobile!

Somewhere a 500 lb woman is climaxing.

Disappointed no eggplant emojis for this.

Inspired, I asked AI to write a poem. Here's what it came up with:

In Orlando's sunshine, where citrus blooms
A bowl game tale of pride and youthful tunes
The Cyclones, red, white, and gold
Face off against the 'Canes to unfold

From Ames to Coral Gables, they roam
With spirit and cheer, they make their home
Their armor shines like morning dew
As they take the field, with hearts anew

In Central Florida's vibrant heat
The Pop Tarts Bowl brings fans to the street
Strawberry, brown sugar, and s'mores delight
Fueling dreams of victory tonight

The Cyclones charge, with ferocity bold
Their defense, a fortress to behold
While Miami's offense, with speed does play
Seeking the end zone, in a dazzling display

In the fourth quarter's crunch time thrill
A Hail Mary pass, may just fulfill
But Iowa State's grasp, is strong and tight
As they claim the victory, under Orlando's lights

The 'Canes depart, with heads hung low
Their dreams of glory, left to grow
While Cyclones celebrate, with glee
Their triumphant win, a memory to be

In Orlando's warmth, a tale is told
Of courage and heart, that never grows old
For the Iowa State Cyclones, their name is known
As champions of Pop Tarts Bowl, in Florida's winter throne.

HarHar. I had forgotten that AI is a thing now. Amazing really.

I'm not sure it's a good thing. Did AI come up with the entire poem or did you have to give it some key words and direction? The future will be very interesting. @nrg4isu

People are just prudes! Closeted freaks.

Give me all the rainbows you want, it may not happen. But I’ll make a call right now, it’s ridiculous that Jaylin hasn’t returned one for a TD yet. That streak ends today.

If you are talking kick offs and punt returns remember this........it took being behind 31-10 against Arizona St. for Matt to finally squeeze his butt cheeks and give the green light on returning a kick off.

So if Jaylin does do what you suggest.....it will more than likely be because ISU is getting their a**** handed to them. Because I doubt Matt is going to flush his "process" to risk a turnover in anything close.

ACC could be 1-7 going into our Pop Tarts bowl. Maybe Miami was good but competition was not?

Xavier Restrepo opting out 3 hours before kick…. Lol

It is not part of his game NORMALLY,
but today he might look like Michael Vick!
Did I do that right?

Let's Go State!

What's wrong with that dudes face?

C'mon... have you never seen Animal House??

I think that one went right over your head.

He's on a roll.

I put 5 dollars on an alternate spread of Miami -13.5 so the blowout won't happen.

Just watched Nebraska pressure the QB w/2 down DT’s, 2 standing DE’s & blitz 2 middle LB’s. On the QB in one second. Hope Professor Heacock goes after Cam.

We don't really have any pass rushers.

Them keeping track of bowl games records for conferences is about as reliable as my last team Temu order.

If teams end up in the playoffs then it slides other teams around along with several other factors.

 

[CycloneDaddy]

Higgins out and maybe Porter?

Nebbie just did the same alignment w/2 LB’s blitzing inside. LB hit the QB who fumbled & Nebraska recovered. I can hope.

Well 1-7 and many by blowout does not say much for the overall strength of a league. You point may be true but why are we then proclaiming that Miami will look no different? They are taking this more serious than the rest of the ACC? Who knows, we will find out soon.
