    Williams Blog: Utah report card

    Was it a bad day? Yes. But, based on your radio story analogy, your bad day theme suggests that on some other day, when the stars were aligned differently, we could have competed. That is not so. From what I saw, any day we played this team would have been a bad day. We are going to...

    So what do you think we have?

    We won't be able to meaningfully compete with elite programs until our speed issues are resolved. The differential in terms of speed was brutal.

    Did we forget to take off the ankle weights before the game?

    Miller and Deace

    Who cares what Miller's take is? He has repeatedly proven he knows virtually nothing about football. Remember his hyping of Christensen in Tate's senior year. Last week Miller's analysis was that the key difference in the game would be Iowa's superb kickoff coverage. Enough said.

    Game day atmosphere

    Well, we might not play AC/DC at the stadium, but we play Lady Gaga on the Campanile.

    ***ISU vs. Iowa postgame thread***

    Against a top ten team at their house and we play them 7 -7 in the second half! Put aside the first half and it was actually a good effort. PR has us headed in the right direction. Our play in the second half was a step forward.

    Lady Gaga/Campanile

    The cultural barbarians are at the gates of our cherished citadel of higher learning. They must be repelled.

    Lady Gaga/Campanile

    Yes, I will take James C. Wilson's inspiring lyrics over Gaga's cynical soulless song. "I want your ugly I want your disease I want your everything As long as it’s free I want your horror I want your design ‘Cuz you’re a criminal As long as you’re mine I want your psycho Your vertigo shtick...

    Lady Gaga/Campanile

    The ledge? Folks that embrace the siren song of relativism are the ones leading us to the ledge and a fall into the deep abyss of nihilism.

    Lady Gaga/Campanile

    This is a sacrilege! How dare they defile our sacred icon by using its venerable pipes to pump out that puerile hedonistic noise.

    Victory song?

    We already have a great song - The Bells of Iowa State! My family sings it after every victory. "When I wrote "The Bells of Iowa State," I thought then that it had much more depth and emotion than your basic football fight song," Wilson said. "Its continuing popularity leaves me very pleased...

    Big 10 expansion - it has begun.

    Perhaps being a big fish in a smaller pond wouldn't be all bad. No doubt the buzz associated with football would be dampened, but basketball might be more exciting.

    If there is a break up of the Big 12, where does ISU fit

    The number of TV sets is not the key here. That problem already exists for us. If Nebraska and Missouri leave, distance and weather factors weigh against us staying in a league dominated by Texas. The addition of Louisville, Memphis or Houston only exacerbates our problems. JP needs to...

    If there is a break up of the Big 12, where does ISU fit

    If Nebraska amd Missouri join the Big X, we are in serious trouble. Just look at a map.

    Wayne to ISU?

    In JP We Trust! I have absolute confidence in JP. He has a proven track record. When the bells in the Campanile start playing Meat Loaf's "Bat out of Hell," it will mean that either the apocalypse is imminent or Morgan has been rehired.

    Our scholar athletes represented the Universty well tonight. Yes, we fell a few points short, but we played with enthusiasm and our decorum was exempliary.

    I think we're going to struggle against Iowa

    Perhaps our scholar athletes have been distracted the last week or so preparing for their semester exams. The books come first.
