jl112481
I have four tickets in Section M for sale. Make an offer. PM if interested.

Section M
Row 3
Seats 1-4 (aisle, 1 step up from Section M entrance)

Restrooms and concessions are really close to the seats. Great view of the stadium and field.

Willing to split. Online transfer will send directly to your email from the university. This is the university approved method of sending tickets.

Why don't we fair catch every kickoff?

MeowingCows
If you fair catch a kick, you take it at the 25. How often do we ever return a kick past or even just up to the 25? This just seems like the smarter, easier way to go about it. A bad decision to take out a kick in the shallow part of the endzone left us with some awful field position yesterday, that's just one example. IIRC from the stat page, we only averaged ~15 yards/return.

Special teams in general hasn't been great for us, but this seems like a simple place for improvement without really any work involved. Sure, there's a chance to house a kickoff every now and then, but is one or maybe two a season really worth the trouble?

Student Section on the Field During Delay

Farnsworth
Now that most people are over the knee jerk overreactions to the loss and whined about everything under the sun, I was wondering what people's thoughts, reactions, and opinions were to the students going onto the field during the Iowa game.

I was not inside the stadium when it happened and just heard John Walter's call on it. He was pretty disgusted.

At first I figured it was like 5-10 students who did this from the radio call, but today I saw someone's video and it looked like a majority of the student section spilled out.

It looked pretty bad, both in terms of respect from the student section, and poor security not stopping it to the point it got, however I have to admit that back in the day if I was a student during this, I'd sadly probably be right out there too.

How was the reaction inside the stadium? How long were they actually on the field and how was it managed/received?

3rd and long

Rick
TOE is 3rd and 22 inside the 10. We rush 3 players and give a senior QB all the time in the world to complete the pass. This is what Rhoads used to do and it drove me crazy then. How many times during that era did we watch the other QB scramble forever and then complete a long pass. I am not a coach and all these defensive schemes seem to look the same but why wouldn't we put pressure on Stanley to make a quick play instead of giving him time to find a receiver. Our pass defense is not that bad and I have to believe we can hold our own for 5-6 seconds on long coverage. We have a ton of keyboard coaches out here. Anyone care to explain the 3 man rush other than the obvious it gives us another DB to cover?

So what time did everyone get to Ames yesterday and then get back home?

SEIOWA CLONE
We left Southern Iowa around 3:30, stopped by Casey's to get ice for the coolers and headed to Ames, we got inside to park about 5:50 or so. The handicapped lot was well over 3/4th full at that time. They tried to park us by the number on the stickers, it that was a complete cluster, so they gave up. Son and friend got to the same lot at 4:50, they were the 4th car in line to park.

Great day of tailgating, it was neat to watch Gameday on the TV, walked over by the spot and it was a zoo.

Rolled into the garage at 1:00 AM, thank god the wife said she would drive home, was a long day, but well worth it, short of ISU peeing down their legs with the fumbles.
So how about the rest of you.

Last game ISU played well

NorthCyd
When is the last time this team really put things together and played well? I would say going back to Texas last year this team has not played a game anywhere near their full potential and have a 3-3 record. There have been plenty of games like yesterday where they dominated in lots of areas but either lost or barely beat an inferior opponent. I hope they really put it to La Monroe. This team needs to remember what it's like to completely dominate a game.

Cocky Hawk fans

C
I know every fan base has a-holes, but seems Iowa has more of them. Last night while leaving the stadium, had a teenage or early 20 something in a group of Hawk fans hold up his hand and say, “High five, in a row!!” Showed him my middle finger.

And of course this morning at Hy-Vee the Hawk jerseys and t-shirts were out in full force. Lots of condescending smirks too.

Damn I hate the Iowa game. Every year. Wouldn’t bother me to play someone else. A guaranteed win. Rant over. And $#@% the Hawks. Hope they lose every game.

What Iowa did to win, is What ISU didn’t

D
THAT was the difference in the game. Iowa converted a 3rd and 22 to get points later in the drive. ISU fumbled on a scoring drive which Iowa turned into a score before halftime (I believe). ISU jumped on a 4th and 3 only to punt into the end zone the next play.
Iowa made all FG attempts and ISU special teams were not at all special, just gross.
ISU has played two games of offense as if they want the defense to score for them- no urgency. 15 pts (regulation avg) will win zero big 12 games.
Iowa was the better team and who the game today. Iowa state has a lot to figure out if they will he in the top half of the big 12 this year.
VERY disappointing start! Our fans continue to show up and be awesome- they deserve better than the wheels falling off game of today.
