What would have happened if the minnesota QB didn't fumble at the goal line.

This will be a productive thread.

I don't remember him fumbling at the goal line.

What would have happened if cloned dinosaurs had suddenly roared onto the field right after the half time show?

Well, we had a hell of a drive there at the end of the game. We could have scored if needed. Plus, we had all 3 timeouts left.

Or if Arnaud didn't throw 2 picks, and a fumble?

What if the internet was never invented? Then I wouldn't open up a thread and read this dumb ****.

What would have happened if nobody brought a football to the stadium? Would they play with a basketball?

Well, the QB didn't fumble at the goal line, the QB/RB fumbled at the 17-yard line.

What if you were a hot dog? Would you eat yourself? I know I would.

**CYNWIA** · 01-02-2010, 10:12 AM

in case you do not understand the sarcasm utilized by the above posters.... they did fumble, and we did win... end of story

**ISU3000** · 01-02-2010, 10:14 AM

What if C-A-T really spelled dog?

It wasn't even near the goal line first of all, and.... it doesn't matter what would have happened... it didn't.

What if Arnaud didn't have 4 turnovers? What if Benton had broken that ankle tackle on that last fumble and taken it the distance... it would have been a 21-13 game.

We found a way to win the game... that's all that matters. Just ask Iowa. They were about 4-5 plays away from being 6-6 this year just like us. UNI missing that FG, McNutt's catch on the final play against MSU, a play or two in the Arkansas St game from losing, that ball that was tipped like 4 times and fell into Sash's hands in the Indiana game which he returned 95 yds for a TD when Indiana would have went up 28-7 but instead it was 21-14. Just those 3 off the top of my head would have given them a 6-6 record instead of 10-2.

There are a lot of "what if's" in football. And most of them are the difference between a good year and an average year.

Closed to avoid the fight that will surely ensue. If you would like to discuss this further, please move it to the post game thread and keep it civil.
