I'm just glad we all finally agree that the 2015 Iowa team was very good. Progress.
Today's the day: the bowl blowout streak ended.

I didn't say either team was a joke, so I don't know where you got that from. Post #431 doesn't say that, either. Both teams were alright given their respective conferences and situations.
Since 2009, the year that Bill Snyder returned to Kansas State, both the purple kitties and the fightin' Fred Flinstones have been practically the same team.
KSU:

8 wins over AP Top 25 teams, 2 wins over AP Top 10 teams
Conf record 48-31
Best Conf season 8-1, worst Conf season 3-6
Average conf standing = 4.75
Iowa:
Overall record 73-44
Best season 12-2, worst season 4-8
10 wins over AP Top 25 teams, 5 wins over AP Top 10 teams
Conf record 43-31
Best Conf season 8-0, worst Conf season 2-6
Average conf standing = 5.28
Both usually win close games by being fundamentally sound if not a little boring, occasionally upsetting a legitimately great team. The difference is that Hawk fans think they are a major player in their conference and the nation, while most of the Wildcat fans I've met understand that it's all about the conference blue bloods.

Girl in my sons HS had the identical injury as my son. She took 9 months to pass her release tests. She still hobbles around. My son has passed the tests in 3 months and is just waiting on the clock and you would never know he was injured.
Most Iowa fans know they aren't a blue blood or a major player.
Most Iowa fans don't care what America thinks about them either

That automatically discredits it as a reputable source. Anyone who has watched any football this year would tell you that we are significantly better than Iowa right now. We would be favored by more than a touchdown on a neutral field.
Go **** yourself. There, now are you happy?Since there's a 15 page Hawk bowl thread on Cyclone fanatic I wouldn't be throwing around the term "pathetic" lightly. Good luck against non P-5 Memphis.
The difference between Iowa 2015 and Memphis 2017 is that Memphis pounded most of the teams on their weak schedule. I think Iowa was okay in 2015, but certainly not ELITE like most hok fans claim. This was proved out in their last 2 games. Maybe "very good" for Memphis was an overstatement, but they are certainly better than the crappy Iowa and BC teams we saw last night.
I would take this bet. You and a few others around here get it but for everyone of you in Hoknation, there are 4 more that are already booking their B1G championship trip for next year.
Ok, I just looked at payouts because Iowa fans were saying payouts made a bowl bigger when we used their old tired logic of closer to January. Saw that liberty pays more than pinstripe. Now what will hawk trolls spout?
For a number of reasons. He was in high demand, he has done a real good job, runs a clean program, and because our AD is lazy. Having said that, he has earned his contract. I would much rather pay 4 to 5 million and get KF results than pay 2 to 3 million and be awful at football.
I can always tell when @breck53 is online, my notifications blow up with all his "disagree" ratings. Never has much to say, he just likes to come in and rate everyone's posts. I'll save you time buddy, I know you disagree with everything I say. It's okay, we can agree to disagree.
Maybe because most of what you post is irrational and dumb???
If the klownz ever get more than a one year winning record, instead of the normal 3-8 record maybe you'll have enough money to pay your coach more. Actually why does lil bro even care what we pay our coaches is the real question?
I haven't said anything irrational or dumb in this thread. Sometimes I go a little far in giving the hoks crap, but it's fun watching you guys get all butt hurt.
