ISU fans have to be among the most mercurial in college football. Some people just need to sit back, chill and realize this isn't some terrible awful loss that dooms the program.
***ISU vs. KSU Postgame (Meltdown) Thread***
- Thread starter JUKEBOX
- Start date
Doesn't matter, we're not winning 6 games even with a win against UNI being counted.
I like Arnaud's command of the offense and his willingness to put the team on his shoulders - I think that may be what Rhoads was talking about at the beginning of the season when he said Arnaud was the the best option at QB for the team to win. I don't disagree that the talent at QB is sitting on the bench, but I hope Tiller/Capello/Barnett are paying attention to the way Arnaud talks in the huddle and drags 2, 3, or 4 d-linemen with him on a draw play.
The biggest question that I have as a fan is: is AA getting blamed for the Off. Coordinators calls, or is he simply not executing? If it's execution, then why isn't the next best option taking some snaps to prove that this offense works? It seems to me that Herman is killing time until his talent gets in to execute his offense - ISU can't continue to do that in the Big 12.

I saw 5 things today
1) AJ Klein is going to be one of my favorite Cyclones of all time
2) Jeremy Reeves is a better corner than Leonard Johnson---had he not been pushed off of on that pass play, I think he could have made a play on the ball...
3) We don't have the quarterback to be running Herman's offense
4) The defensive line is extremely poor and with the recruits being brought in (or not brought in) its not going to get better anytime soon
5) Way too many 2nd tier talent Iowa-born players on the field at one time

whats wrong with being a hawk fan? I didn't go to school there, but i have the right to cheer for whoever i want. Hell, i know all of their football players, all their wrestlers. I've followed them for years.
Why cheer for a loser? (team) (I'd really like to know- because i don't want to switch. But this constant losing is seriously bad for a person. Its changed my life. Mild depression and constant frustration.

I hate to pile on AA, because he is so tough, but, he just can not hit a guy down the field. Most of the time he can't find them. I am assuming that Tiller just isn't ready to go. Maybe they will start him against UNI and rest AA.
Bravo to you for making me laugh, because this loss is basically the end of the season
What's frustrating is that we supposedly have big play receivers, and Arnaud mostly had lots of time today, and the running game was doing well. Aside from the Arnaud overthrow, where exactly was the big play potential??
Meltdown thread or not, that is some pathetic ****. I don't think anyone here is going to be sad to see you go.
Wait, didn't our former coach get destroyed on here for overlooking the home grown 'talent'?
We already have tons of bandwagon fans here at Iowa. We really don't need more...
Stick with ISU. Some day, they'll get good at football.
Why stop there, find a program with a few national championships because that's what makes your life roll. Heck, you might as well switch every year to make sure you survive.
