9-6 in Kinnick

I'm sensing some sarcasm on the part of the OP. At least I hope that is what it is. Because no one really gets excited about this.

So I guess this year the overall trophy is more important than the football one? Or are you celebrating because this is the first time in its history that their was some doubt whether the home team would win the trophy?

 

[isuforlife]

what is the cy-hawk?

 

[vmbplayer]

I for one join the OP in celebrating the fact that the team that hosts 90% of the events has yet to fail to win the trophy. It's like this 'competition' was added on top of a series of events 9 years ago without any consideration to competitive balance.

or

b. No Bowl Game in Football and NIT in MBB but you get a CyHawk trophy to show you're not little brother.

Hasn't the home team in football and basketball won this every single year?

So Presidents Cup matters when you beat Iowa, but the CyHawk Series doesn't when you lose. Gotcha.

I'm not sure what you're talking about - except for a few select morons, the CyHawk Series doesn't matter when we win. It's a talking point that garners a "that's nice" expression that nobody remembers just days after the discussion.

Cy -Hawk FB game trophy > cy hawk series trophy if there even is one for the series one.

Ehhh, it's more than a few. But the whole thing is stupid.

Usually when Iowa State wins there's a couple threads that follow the whole,

"We're Iowa State fans, the greatest fans in the world. We care about ALL our sports, even Women's ping pong, unlike crappy Iowa fans who only care about football."

 

[Cy$]

well, bragging about it is pretty ironic considering Hawkeye fans make fun of ISU for caring about this.

 

[GMackey32]

I'll take bowl games and NCAA tourney invites. Iowa fans can have that stupid trophy.

It is pretty funny to watch this pathetic bragging attempt switch back and forth every year, and then watch the opposite side change their views.

Well... consider the source of the bragging.
