Until he loses again this year... ISU is gonna be brought up a LOT when discussing WVU.
WV - Full of it
- Thread starter Cloneon
- Start date
Dana Holgorsen is the living embodiment of all that is West Virginia.
Reading that article makes it sound like WV destroyed Texas by about 3 TDs, when in reality they needed basically a hail mary and a 2 pt conversion at the very end to win by 1 point.
I'm not sure I want to give WV another shot at us in the championship game or not, but how sweet would it be to face them again in the championship game and beat them even worse.

WV is the Iowa of the B12. Holgorsen is the Kirk Jr. of the program.
I could give a rats a$$ if Holgerson or some WVU fans give ISU credit. The only credit I need to hear is from Campbell.
Kinda yes, kinda no. It did let it be known that Texas copied us . . . which is awesome, and obviously referred to our victory and Holgs said he was "sick of hearing about it"
But all the implication seems to be that the only reason we won was that we "sprung" this defense on them that they Totally weren't expecting (even though we've ran it for 1.5 seasons). "Recognition," to me, would be at least some kind of acknowledgement that we have some pretty good players and some good coaching, too, that can make in-game adjustments.
Edit, Texas tried to copy us. Nobody has been able to take the deep ball away from WV the way Iowa State did. Limit WV's homerun balls and it's pretty amazing how limited their offense can become.
The first 2/3 of the article, I really didn't find too bad at all from an ISU perspective. However, once Holgerson started yapping in the last part, it went all downhill from there. Maybe he should consider that our defense isn't necessarily some gimmick defense that can easily be conquered? Maybe Texas isn't the exact same as us, even though they copy our strategy? Maybe we've beat a lot of these teams a couple years in a row now where they still can't figure out how to beat our defense? Maybe we are the #1 ranked defense in the conference for a reason? I don't know, there is at least a few things to consider there.
Cut Texas some slack. When Texas played WVU they didn't have Ray Lima...oh, wait a minute...neither did ISU.
I was really disappointed there wasn't a Herman-Holgorsen rumble after the game last week. It would have been the perfect ending for those douche-ass teams.
Texas can't copy Iowa State, they don't have the athletes we have.
To be fair, he cost Iowa State $25K. We should be able to hate him all we want.
It's not a good thing when you are every Big 12 fan's favorite team besides their own.
He said Kirk, Jr. meaning Kirk's OC son who takes his frustration out on the walls and doors of the press box.
I DID call him a piece of ****. I think that’s a fair assessment.
