Between both boards we've analyzed records after bye weeks, records in night games, opponents statistics, offensive and defensive statistics of both team, but a guy on utefans came up with the ultimate statistic.

ISU is 1-8 on games played on October 9th, that's it game over.

As Todd Snider would say "65 percent of all statistics are made up right there on the spot; 72.4 percent of people believe them whether they're accurate statistics or not..."

Try again. I've found 4 wins already, and haven't gotten back to WWII yet.

Oct. 9, 1954 - Iowa State 33, Kansas 6
Oct. 9, 1965 - Iowa State 21, Kansas 7
Oct. 9, 1976 - Iowa State 44, Utah 14
Oct. 9, 1982 - Iowa State 44, Kent State 7

Snap. My spirits have been lifted. I thought we were doomed for sure.

I think I remember that guy... I thought he was saying ISU is 1-8 in the month of october straight up as underdogs.

Were those wins included in the last 9 games played on that date. And you guys are 4-0 against Utah, but I could have sworn we beat you once when I was in school there back in the stone age.

I respect anyone that takes the time to look up something that ridiculous. Really, I enjoyed this post.
Utah fans have been a good bunch to have around. Seriously, you guys have contributed a discussion all week long. I'll be on your side all year long, after tomorrow.

This is even better than taking the time to look up that obscure statistic, which now joins the 216% of stats that are later proven wrong.

I went back and re-read it and what he meant to say is 1-8 in the last 9 home games played in October (I re-phrased for clarity).
