You can probably attribute a lot of that behavior to folks taking their cue from the previous regime. Every postgame conference was full of "We won the second half/third quarter/first possession," etc. I suspect a lot of our fans learned to interpret results based on osmosis.
At any rate, the world is full of hypocrisy, so it's not surprising that people use the same logic that they accuse Hawk fans of using.
Anyway, doesn't matter how "even" the game was,
ISU still won. That's all I care about.
