*** Official Texas vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[Inthesystem]

I just don't get why you would fire Herman just to hire his carbon copy.

He’s actually not as good of a coach as Herman. Texas is essentially Nebraska now.

You know what’s pretty ******* great? Every player that came back is disappointed about the 3 losses. They wanted more. But they came out tonight and played their asses off. They aren’t giving up. It would be easy for guys like Charlie and mike and breece and will to say **** it, I’m done. But they haven’t. They want the championship game. And I’d bet that if that doesn’t happen, they’ll still fight for every game. That’s culture. That’s a legacy. That’s something we should all be proud of.

And the opposite of that attitude and pride? Texas. They’ve gotten punched in the nose for 4 straight weeks and according to some geniuses on here were facing a team that was never going to be good on defense again. But they didn’t keep fighting.

Some of my favorites, good and bad.

It’ll be 14-3 at halftime with the way we are playing. This team has zero fire and clearly losing a disaster of a game to WVU doesn’t have this team caring enough to turn things around

That’s game

This team deserves to lose with our offense today. Absolutely pathetic.

What a joke

"Maybe this is the wake up call they need" Version 32.1

The disappointing season continues.

Guys... It's 3-7. In the 2nd quarter. Shut the **** up.

Relax you *************. 4 quarter game.

Do some of you guys even enjoy watching or just enjoy being miserable? It’s not even halftime yet. Still lots of time to turn it around hopefully.

It’s not impossible, but not likely now. We had our shot…. and blew it as usual.

What a bunch of whiney jerks. Don’t know crap about anything.

Texas might score twice since we go three and out every time and have zero offense and won’t take any time off the clock. 21-3 before the half sounds right.

Texas has been a 1st half team this year. Ass whooping city once we get to the 3rd qtr.

This team is dead

This is the 2021 Cyclones right here. Grinding out a game.
I know its not fun to watch, but calm down and relax. They got this.

Funny how certain trolls leave the thread when we start pulling away. Wish the site gave a **** about a good game day thread.

Didnt get to watch this live but did get to watch the posted full replay on YouTube.... is that a "**** the Longhorns" chant I hear? If so its GLORIOUS....

Following that one, 8-4 seems like the floor to the regular season, with 9-3 in play because Campbell vs. Oklahoma is always possible.

It wasn't quite the level of the 2nd qtr of Super Bowl 22 ass whoopin', but I'll take it.

9-3 means 10-3 is possible.

 

[Omaha Cy]

9-3 means 10-3 is possible.

!n that scenario 11-3 is still possible.

 

[cyrocksmypants]

It’s pretty remarkable that you can have a player as great as Robinson as your running back and still be 4-5.

Wow, I’m shocked @Darius Bieber said that!

I was so tired I hit the hay immediately last night. I'm just showing up to say that was one of the most purely pleasurable stadium experiences I've ever had. Just a lot of fun.

The first 40ish pages of this thread, Lordy, I hope there's tape.

Wait. Did you sit with Pole Assassin?

So how 'bout those black jerseys!

Confused me- I thought I read earlier in the week we were going C-C-C? Was there a misdirect somewhere?

 

[AuH2O]

A lot of people called Sark a "great hire", and a number of people freaked out that he was going to bring Texas back. On the other hand, when the hire was announced, I saw it as one of the least threatening hires Texas could have possibly made.

I can say with zero equivocating that I said Sark was a terrible hire. He has been mediocre to bad at all stops. Running a good offense at Alabama when you have the opponent completely outmanned doesn’t mean a thing. Herman might not have been good enough for them, and he’s a real piece of work, but he is a far better coach than Sark.

We are just not good enough as a program to withstand every superbowl. And it was no doubt WVU superbowl last week, as evidenced by their collapse today.

Heard on one of the post game shows, that WV had the score of last years game posted in their locker room ever since the loss last yr. They stewed about that loss all yr, it was circled for them. Unluckily we got whacked this yr.

Wow, 10.6 ypc combined w/71% completion percentage is going to be tough to beat every time.

Just started at pg 58 of the thread, so maybe it's been said, but X's 841.6 QBR is impressive!
