you too brutus? who needs fans like you. first of all you are factually incorrect as we do NOT lose to iowa 85% of the time. second, what kind of a fan, when his team is struggling decides to be a fan of their biggest rival? are you nuts? i went t texas a and m before going to grad school at iowa state and i would die from torture before i ever became a fan of texas or iowa. you are acting like a big baby. if you ae male, which i doubt, get a pair bud.

you are obviously psychotic. who cares what you want? you mean nothing. either increase the dose of whatever psychiatric medicine you are taking (or dont and suffer the consequences so we dont have to EVER hear your nonsense again) or move to a 3rd world country and lament about what you want THERE. You are nuts.
lol
i don't think i will be moving to africa because i wish iowa state could win games like iowa does.

Being an ISU fan is a special thing. There is an intensity about us that I don't see in other fans. ISU had a tough day. I will take days like these over days like last Saturday all year long...
Dualthreat- I think you need to calm down a little on the Hawk love. Do you remember that only 3 years ago they were a .500 team and didn't go bowling?
Today was tough, but if you, or anyone else, thinks that we aren't heading in the right direction as a program, I think you are mistaken. Let me remind you that our coaches won a bowl last year with a group of guys that had only won 5 games in the previous 2 seasons. Also I will remind you that is one of 3 bowl wins in school history. And Rhoads and company did that in their first year!
This is a great time for Hawk fans, no doubt. But it is also a very promising time for ISU fans if you can allow yourself to show a little faith in OUR staff. CPR did more in his first year than Ferentz did. Remember that before you take the leap.
(sorry if this is too reasonable for the meltdown thread)

I thought ISU put up a hell of a fight. I was very nervous right up until the very end. I thought your defense lost you the game. Thomas ran all over you guys. Coffman was pathetic, as usual, but your dline was really weak. On the other hand, our dline didn't look so good either, besides Harold and maybe Brown.
Anyways, good luck to ISU for the rest of the season. Your schedule is brutal, but there are some more wins out there.

I always assume (hope) comments like this are uttered by a young or immature person. If you had a son playing football for the Cyclones and had to listen to this crap how would you feel? AA is a good kid who stays out of trouble and plays hard for his school. The results on the field are not what anyone wants, everyone wants to win. Maybe someday you will have children that are involved in athletics on some level. Maybe you will have to listen to listen to stupid insensitive comments directed at your kid. Think about it.

CTH deserves criticism after today's offensive performance. As fans, we have to accept that Collin Franklin is indeed our best offensive weapon yet they stopped throwing the ball to him in the second half. If the read-option play consists of 20% of the offense and nearly 75% when the offense goes uptempo, then Tiller should be the quarterback. He clearly has a quicker first step, longer stride, and is more decisive in his read. If Shontrelle Johnson can be trusted to return kickoffs and risk getting drilled by a coverage team at full speed, why is he not allowed to run out of a 2-back set? Darius Reynolds needs the ball in his hands much more often. Austen Arnaud as a 3-year starter has a serious confidence issue and a fragile ego. Popularity does not win games on the field. Messing with a qb's throwing motion in his 5th year of college is an absolute mistake and it shows with the inconsistency of his release point, trajectory and velocity. ISU's offensive line lacks leadership which shows in their body language and conditioning is still an issue. Better days ahead, in 2012.
1.He was talking undergrad*
2.More specifically, I'm guessing he was talking about his program*
If he is in Ag E or MatE, he is completely correct if he is talking about either grad or undergrad.
Rankings
3.Really? US News rankings? And when did their methodology become a good one? It strongly favors a quid pro quo type agreement among their so-called "top/elite/prestigious/(our editors went here for a degree in some hokum that wasn't engineering so we'll set the rankings up to favor our alma mater) " universities.
4. So about that football game...
Perhaps, but I don't think 'basically every team' needs this type of win to qualify for a bowl. I agree that everyone schedules a cupcake or two but most teams don't need the win like ISU did last year.
Too many good questions that can not be answered. We need to play to win yet it does not seem we are hitting on all cylinders. We were better last year. We could look to the defense to make some stops. Now we are suspect on both sides of the ball.
