Post some funny/interesting things you heard from the fans (both Cyclone and Longhorn) from the loss on Saturday night.

I wasn't at the game, but I heard the Hawk fans at the local establishment cheer for Texas yelling Hawk-em Horns.

They aren't the smartest bunch in the world. If we lost to Texas 37-14, then what would Iowa lose to them by? Maybe 48-10 or something? Us losing does not make Iowa look better.

Heard a lot of people yelling at Jantz. I thought that was completely stupid and unwarranted. Where would this team be without him? 0-4

This. It makes them look like ****. That's why I don't understand why they would cheer for Texas.

I'm going to call out myself. I went a little crazy on the refs after the blocked punt even though I knew in my head Texas must have made contact with the ball.

The dipstick know nothing Cyclone fans that yelled every time the offense paused to look over at the sidelines to get any play adjustments. Surprises me how clueless some fans are.

Yeah. Looking to the sidelines mostly has upside. Gives Herman more time to read the defense and re-call a play.

My self..... I said something along these lines... Ive seen enough zone read (run) plays in the last 3 years that if I never see another one Id be a happy man....

In some instances you will see defensive players jump when teams set and then stand to look to the sidelines. I imagine this can help them see where a blitz may be coming and give them an idea where the pressure is coming from.

Was it just me or did it seem like some of our guys saw the flag and kind of gave up on the play? Play til you hear the whistle! The lack of discipline was sickening. On the other hand the punt earlier in the game needed a flag I thought. There were 3 Texas players who hit Kirby after he kicked the ball.

this is correct... I heard someone say that the James White overtime touchdown was this... They saw blitz coming on the out side... and audible to the option..

I had a Texas fan tell me that it looked like a High School football game atmosphere last night. What high school team has 56,000+ in attendence?

Edit: This was right at kickoff

Everything bad I heard was from our fans, Texas fans were very good imo.

**ISU1294** · 10-02-2011, 12:19 PM

Some Cyclone fans were yellin at McCoy and this girls goes hey morons Colt McCoy graduated... This is why we can't take women seriously when they talk about football.
