*** Official Iowa vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[CyFanInChiLand]

Illinois is not good

That means little, Iowa is always good for a loss or 2 to ****** teams

 

[Cyhig]

Well we always lose one nobody sees coming. So add Wisco, PSU, and that, and that puts us at 9 wins, tops. I also think Minney gets us this year. Maybe Nebby. Our HC and OC are big giant p*ssies, we're a 7-8 win team this year at best.

Minny and Neb are not very good. I’d be shocked if Iowa lost to either one

 

[JP4CY]

I thought it was a properly officiated game. There were a call here and there that were questionable, but that happens every game. The teams decided the outcome themselves. Iowa State made too many mistakes, and Iowa took advantage of the mistakes.

Iowa “should” win 10+ games this year, not because the team is great, but because their schedule is terrible the rest of the way. Only one difficult game remaining for Iowa. They’ll get exposed in the conference title game

I thought it was close to properly officiated.
I would have called probably a PI on ISU and Iowa once each. Not really giving each team either an advantage since it was called the same way.
By saying no penalties on Iowa, it reaffirms this:

Iowa doesn't make many mistakes so it's time to clamp down after that TD.

ISU to play the way CMC wants to, against Iowa, needs to play basically perfect. We didn't.

Why are you here right after this loss for us? **** off.

Do you have to trash everyone with negativity? Why?

 

[Nococy]

With that schedule, yes, Iowa will win 10 games. Everyone expects a loss to Penn State. The only other game they might lose is Wisconsin. Besides those two, what matchup would you think Iowa would lose?

and this is why they are correctly called the fake id of college football. Anyone one with a decent pulse will roll them.

Sticking up for the hok guy, figures.

 

[Skyh13]

How did they underachieve?

I imagine you either watched it yourself or can go and read about expectations based on their players, combined with the number of drafted players on that roster and who they were. If you feel differently, then fine, but I fail to see the use in discussing it.

 

[ClonerJams]

44 pass attempts
2.8 yard per rush

Not a recipe for success with this offense. Throw in a pick 6 and its a mother-lovin disaster

Noted.

I don't need you on my side dude.

I'd love to go back and read about the expectations after the LA game or when the expectations were high since most of the year we didn't think there'd be a season.

 

[cincinnaticyclone]

When was the last time they were at leart 7-5 most years in an 8 year span?

They’ll do it this year and Iowa State won’t. They’ll beat us for the second year in a row. You can be satisfied with that but I’m not

 

[Dopey]

Oh yeah and what else is frustrating is Iowa just crossed off one of its 3 hardest games from the list. They are not losing more than 2 games with that jv schedule

Cripes I hate this. They play who is scheduled, including us, and usually get 9 wins.

Its ridiculous to belly ache about the big 10 when we can't beat them.

 

[madguy30]

What are your expectations for ISU football?

What is that based on outside of the year where some teams played 6 games?

 

[atlantacyclone]

@atlantacyclone is in denial. We have as good or better football players.

I agree so what am I in denial about?

 

[Cardinal2001]

In progress.

My game time beer breakdown was

4 Ames Lagers
1 Old Style

our best and worst plays came while I was drinking Ames Lager. However, I got sick of watching and went out and hit golf balls while listening to Jon and Eric while sipping Ames Lager. We won 10-0 while I was doing that. So in a way, this loss is my fault, since I didn't do that the entire afternoon.

H

couldn't throw in a swarm beer? just in case?

Honestly, it’s amazing we had the ball in a 1 score game late. It took an equally ****** offense on the opposing side.

If I was I apologize. My bad.

Any fan of any football team expects to beat their rival and go to a bowl game. Quit being a moron

 

[jbhtexas]

Agreed. While it’s fun to win this game, it’s treated the same as any other non conference game. If I had to choose between the following options, I would take a 6-3 conference record with a loss to Iowa than a 3-6 conference record with a win over Iowa

I think this team will get better as the season progresses just because there is so much youth on the offensive side.

Those winning conference records came with NFL-caliber RBs and QB on the roster. That kind of talent can cover alot of "bad". That "bad" is still here, but NFL-caliber talent doesn't seem to be.
