*** Official IOWA STATE vs Memphis Liberty Bowl Game(Day) Thread ***

[JEFF420]

Did Paul Rhoads show up to coach this bowl game?

he been coaching this whole season

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

What did we do in those extra practices? Woof.

 

[CYDJ]

We just want to run the clock out, eh?

 

[VTXCyRyD]

We typically have no problem staying with the top teams of the league. It’s hard to understand why we have games like this against teams that should be clearly inferior.

[Dannynoonan]

This couldn’t start any worse than it did wow

******* effort. Embarrassing.

 

[SoleCyclone]

Obviously Connor Stallions transfered to Memphis

 

[RoseClone]

Their defensive line and offensive line are dominating ISUs offensive line and defensive line.

Honestly, with a few exceptions, that is the history of ISU football every year. Especially the OL.

This coaching staff always plays to the level of their opponents. UNI, Iowa, Ohio, etc. It's also why they lose so many games by 3 or less.

 

[Marcelason78]

No reason for desperation mode. Just throw the ball vertically and score here.

 

[atlantacyclone]

I still think that we will win this…

 

[Gunnerclone]

You can hide the rot, but it never actually goes away.

 

[jctisu]

So... are we allowed to panic yet?

Asking for a friend.

Nobody should panic about a bowl game performance. Has absolutely zero bearing on what this team will do next year. Fun to win? Hell yes, and there is a ton of game left.

People should be disappointed with the showing thus far, but panicking over an exhibition is ridiculous.

This is beyond embarrassing. This is exactly why I said it sucked we had a G5 team in the bowl game. If we were taking this beatdown from a P5 opponent, at least it wouldn't look as bad.

Email JP. He wanted this game.

 

[ISU_Guy]

Sec was scared to play us right?

I don’t mind getting beat but this is just embarrassing. Such a disappointing performance for the fans and for perception of the conference

 

[Thomasrickj]

Why didn’t Henigan just transfer to Miami or something

Because Miami is a great place to go if you want constant underperforming and horrible coaching to go along with a delusional fan base that thinks their poo doesn’t stink.

 

[Clonefan94]

Well, I'm turning this off. I know, it's not over, they can come back, but right now, this is just flat out embarrassing.

EDIT: Dang, just realized, the game is my excuse for day drinking, so I guess I'm still going to have to keep the game on. I haven't had a drink yet, but man I need one now.

 

[atlantacyclone]

I mean, the D will eventually get a stop… right???

 

[cyatheart]

it's a good thing I don't really care about this, because it's clear nobody involved with the team does either.

 

[Dopey]

No one cares except us
