    Farley: Well, its hard, but sometimes you just need to miss a couple of field goals so your team gets their way. We are still the second best team in the state anyways.
    Media: Well considering the other team in the state is ISU, you may have a point.
    haha good point!

    I agree. I was so ticked about that loss in 2007 because I knew it meant we would never hear the end of it from the UNI coaches, players and fans. It doesn't matter how many times we drub them in the future, they're still going to point back to that game and talk about how they always have a chance against us.

    Huh?

    There are multiple other wins and near wins for UNI in the series as well.

    Farley is a classless piece of crap and has always hated ISU.

    I fixed that for you. I don't want people that don't know about the series to think that you guys have had a lot of success against ISU.

    This is the reason I've gone from just wanting a safe win against UNI to hoping we drub them by 50 points every time.

    Dude, ISU's offense laid a total turd, and they still beat UNI by 27. There is no woulda-coulda-shoulda about a win like that.

    Be thankful ISU's offense couldn't punch through a paper bag last week to keep it down to 27 points.

    These quotes make exactly as much sense as saying UNI would have won if they didn't turn the ball over. "ISU would have won by more if they would have scored more points"

    Name the big number of FBS transfers that make up UNI's recruiting???? The last 2 recruiting classes have had had zero FBS transfers. Couple I can remember recently are Fiacco from ISU and Whitney Lewis from USC 3 or 4 years ago. Hardly a big percentage of recruits

    Re: Mark Farley radio show tonight

    I do not see why we should get rallied up. It is the coach from freaking UNI talking to whatever UNI fans are out there. Of course the man is bitter, he has been at UNI his entire career. Do you really expect someone who has seemingly been stuck at UNI since high school to tell his own fan(?s?) how much better ISU is in every regard?

    If ISU throws out their mistakes, the UNI game would have been closer to 50-0, and ISU 3-1.

    Well all the games are on the road for UNI...

    ISU winning percentage Big12 road games = .311
    UNI winning percentage Big12 road games = .283

    27-0 speaks for itself. Go whine on your own board.

    Who else do you play besides ISU? If ISU played against ISU for all of their big 12 road games their winning percentage would be near .500.......

    let me know when you play in Lincoln, Norman, Austin, College Station, ect.

    Kansas state is the other wins. I just found the stat interesting especially considering the content of this thread. Farley talked up ISU all week and was especially impressed with the coaching staff and the overall attitude change at ISU.

    Blow's my mind that any Iowan wouldn't be proud of the "walk-on from Waukon" becoming head coach and showing his dedication for one university.

    I would hope it would be right at .500, otherwise there is a tear in the space time continuum.
