*** Official IOWA STATE vs Iowa Game(Day) THREAD ***

[Nelcyn]

Kinda early to be throwing people under the bus.

 

[SCarolinaCy]

Clearly no urgency by our punter there. Another year of Iowa exposing all our deficiencies and our lack of being prepared in September.

Everyone saw last week. Punter takes all day. No surprise at block. Several hero last week said the same thing.

 

[khardbored]

This sucks.

I won't say I didn't see it coming, though. Everyone here was remarkably confident about this game after what happened last year. We also lost way more from a talent standpoint than Iowa did in the offseason.

Really? Seems to me like most posts were like "we're going to lose, somehow..."

 

[Cloned4Life]

Ya lets cancel the series. I hate this game so much.

Honestly, yes. There’s no way this staff is ever beating iowa. Clear as ****ing day who comes prepared and who doesn’t.

Kinda nice this one being over so quickly though! A whole rainy day in the metro to enjoy.

 

[mynameisjonas]

I’m just here for the meltdown

 

[madguy30]

It looks like the squaks might have prepared a little better than we did

They heard all week about how bad they were, ISU heard about how great they were.

One responded correctly.

 

[AuH2O]

How about just match Iowa's intensity to start?

Or UNIs, or Louisiana’s, or Baylor’s, or Akron’s.

But hey in 7 years ISU came out and throttled SEMO, UNLV and La Tech.

 

[cincinnaticyclone]

I’ll be watching literally anything else. Y’all can enjoy torturing yourselves for the seventh consecutive year

 

[RezClone]

BTN sucks

Coulda used your support against our beloved iowa lurkers. It's on par with any of the other networks, in case you hadn't heard.

 

[helechopper]

We can win this, just let our dudes settle in.

Good field position here.

 

[Jeffreyisu]

The decision to take the sack, while not even attempting to scramble, led to that TD.

Or the decision to take the sack instead of throw an Int may have been a better option from his vantage point...

 

[tim_redd]

now's the part where we play off and let the shaky QB get some easy completions and gain confidence

 

[ZuriCyclone]

Magically the Iowa QB is a whole different player this game

 

[JP4CY]

OK.

 

[Thomasrickj]

Petras already with a first down.

Un

Not sure who I threw under the bus
Can you fill in the blanks for me?

 

[jsb]

The press conference are a joke, the media does not push him on any of this. Afraid to loose access. After todays loss, he will be like wins dont matter , are we getting better.

Do you honestly think he thinks all of this is acceptable in September? Jesus our fans are ******* stupid.

It's just the way it is. I'm sure he is trying to figure it out. But what's the alternative for us?

 

[20eyes]

Kinda early to be throwing people under the bus.

Not with Campbell's record vs UI in mind...

 

[CloneAlta]

If Manning doesn’t call a better game than this start, he needs to be fired & Nate promoted to OC!!

 

[jdolson27]

Manning can go. Pause the tv on the third down. How can you have 7-8 guys bunched up in the middle of the field. Spread it out.
