Exactly how might one "sneak" out a win? Do they usher everyone out of the stadium before someone tries a game winning field goal?

OU was better than ISU last year. OU could have competed for a National championship. Their game against Georgia was a coin flip, and I think they could have given Bama fits.
Considering Jackson is magically back in time for week 2 after strike two I think there is some validity to it. Not setting up an excuse on our end
Yeah they had a much better season overall I agree. But they had a chance to prove they were better than us by beating us head-to-head and they couldn't do it. Iowa State was better.
Bullsh_t
You think KF wouldn't bring him back on the same schedule for any decent team. What if Minnesota was playing in that slot? Purdue? even an Indiana?
I would like to beat hoks on the field, I am not interested if we think we have a better approach to player discipline. Expect that KF will put his best team on the field. I know MC will
Jackson would have a two game suspension if they had anyone but us in week 2
I think both of these will happen though, with one modification. ISU will bring four and get decent pressure. Iowa will do the same thing on defense to ISU. To me, both defensive lines have an advantage over the offensive lines. The real key is how well Iowa’s young corners and safeties will match up with the ISU wide receivers, and how well the ISU third corner and safeties will match up with Fant and Hockensen.
ISU's WRs have a mismatch against our corners. Our TEs have the edge with your safeties. It's going to be really important for our tall DL to get their hands up and knock a lot of passes down. They did this really well in some games last year, noticeably PSU and OSU, but didn't in others. That'd be a big help to try neutralizing your WRs on our young DBs.

What are the returners for Iowa like? I’m guessing Kene is KR and he can flat out fly. Good size also.
Looking like Ihmir Smith-Marsette, Kyle Groeneweg, or Amani Hooker for punt return. Add Ivory Kelly-Martin to that list for kick return.
They have the strength of a grizzly, the reflexes of a puma, and the wisdom of a man.
I was just listening to Chad and Mark and they mentioned IKM but it sounds like Groeneweg will do quite a bit.
With the new kick-off rule I don’t think isu’s returner is going to matter. I don’t know anything about isu’s Kicker but would have to think they can get the ball to inside the 25 as well.
