Today is…

[dahliaclone]

Today is what we have called in our family a ‘perfect day’ for decades. Clones win. Iowa loses.

Today was next level though. Both fun games to watch. Only we snatched the victory away on the road against a good team. While the hawks get their heart ripped out in the final seconds and still haven’t beaten a ranked team in basically 1500 days.

Enjoy the night! Go Cyclones!

…Saturday.

 

[heitclone]

UCLA could add a cherry on top tonight

 

[Cyhig]

And Oregon made their FG just seconds from Iowa State converting 4th and 1

It was a glorious 30 or so seconds

 

[dahliaclone]

I still think Iowa loses at USC and Nebraska

 

[Sigmapolis]

TCU got up to a 93.4% win expectation.



Iowa got up to a 79.9% win expectation.



Chances of things ending with an Iowa State W and an Iowa L after those situations =

(100% - 93.4%) = 6.6% * (100% - 79.9% (or 20.1%)) = 1.386%

Roughly one in 72!

Quite the thrill. I haven't felt this exhausted after a game since Iowa this year.

They will best Nebraska. They always do. Nebraska is garbage

I’m all for this!!!

I always love when you start a thread @dahliaclone

Had the games on the split screen... and both games ended almost exactly the same time.

I appreciated Oregon keeping the score close with Iowa for the whole game to make the Iowa fans have to sit through that cold rain all day until the end... only to be crushed in defeat... and Hawk tears.

Hawkeyes at the gym/tennis were talking a lot of **** this morning.

Iowa gonna win over big bad Oregon. The Ducks can't handle the weather or their defense.

On a glide path to the playoff (not gonna challenge TOSU or IU for the Big Ten title, though).

Iowa State is spiraling toward the ground on fire if it hasn't already crashed.

Defense sucks. Rocco's brain doesn't work anymore after all the hits.

etc.

Boy oh boy I'm gonna have fun saying nothing but smirkin' at them this week.

…glorious!

I don't get it. My focus is on ISU, whether EIU wins or loses just does not matter to me.

How is it a Cyclone win can be matched either by an EIU win or loss? I don't get it.

I know a lot of Cyclones like the schadenfreude when it comes to Hawkeyes. And that's just fine. I don't necessarily mind that they lost, wouldn't have been too mad if they won, either...

I was born in Iowa City and grew up Hawkeye fan (got an education and became a Cyclone decades ago) and..

All that REALLY matters:

CYCLONES WIN!

CYA IN THE JACK 11/22!!!

I just shared your thread with my wife, as my late father-in-law use to say the same thing! She loves it! Well played @dahliaclone

All those Hawkeye tears lost in time like tears in the rain.
