Disappointing

- Start date
He wouldn’t know, he can’t remember things correctly. He was probably at home and thought he was at the game.
I can imagine. Many of the Hawkeye fans live through the teams. Their lives revolve around them. Pretty sad honestly.
They would have had to have been at the stadium before they could leave. By the way, how many of those years did Iowa conveniently duck ISU?

Haha. You have over 40k messages on here. Kind of hypocritical.
You should check out multiple Iowa bowl games when the stadium was empty at the end.
I was at the WI game yesterday and all sorts of fans left after the 3rd quarter.
Happens everywhere with every team for all sorts of reasons.
You understand there is more to post about on here than just Iowa State athletics?
And most of them have nothing to do with the athletics so what is so crazy about that. So it’s not hypocritical, just you being ignorant.
Lol, your personal experience is always the best anecdote to how 61,000 other people handle varying degrees of heat.
81 year old hok and posting on CF. Kudos.
In those 20 years of losing football, did you ever witness the coaching staff being sued like they are now?

Biggest problem aside from the just outstandingly bad play and all, is the lack of 'go get it'-ness.
In the "Credit where Credit is Due Department, Iowa's attendance remained very strong. That's why the Iowa turn-around under Fry was easier to accomplish. But I believe Iowa State fans have also supported our team very well considering the relative lack of success.
My donor section had lots of hawk fans and the vast majority were not guests. They had multiple 2, 4 and even 6 seat blocks. It was as bad as I have seen it and their crowd was as insufferable. If their band had been there is would have been much worse, but even then; it was embarrassing for us at times. Running out during out entrance, their chant during alma mater and after Ozt spoke; the usual @#$&. Credit to them, they came and were fired up and at times started to flex their presence. hawks and our fan response were just a couple of the many things the pissed me off yesterday. Still not over that game and game experience.

Yeah there were quite a few hawk fans in the stadium, but how anyone could be in Ames Saturday and see the atmosphere and think of Cyclone Nation as anything but ******* electric is beyond me. Iowa State fans brought the house. Jack Trice was rocking.
The people leaving the stadium yesterday weren't going to watch the game on anything. They had give up on the team which is very hard to take for a Cyclone fan.
That was in the visitors section. You know what would have quieted that down? A competitive football game.
