Streak still alive?

Just curious AmesHawk, how many times did you express outrage over Hayden Fry's bush league act of running up the score on ISU? Or did you explain it away by saying something like, "this isn't pop warner football, if you don't want us to run up the score, then stop us"? Can't have it both ways, bud.

I was like 7 then. Probably thought it was cool. But eventually I turned 10 and realized that other things matter, like class and injury prevention.
 
it seems the iowa fans are more interested in this streak than the iowa coaches.....

This is the right post.

If this turd was upset that ISU scored on Iowa's scrubs instead of enjoying a dominate win, then he has big issues.
 
Iowa should be complaining to their head coach if anybody. Would you rather rest your starters or keep a meaningless streak that is even more meaningless because you lost on of the games in the streak. Just because you let off the gas doesn't mean it makes any sense for us not to keep working our offense in preparation for the rest of the season.
 
If it wasn't bush league when O'Keefe and Stanzi were still trying to run up the score by throwing down field well into the 4th quarter with a 35-0 lead (and no, I don't think it's bush league, as it's not their fault that we couldn't stop them, and yes, if Stanzi hadn't overthrown a few of his receivers in the late third and early fourth it could have easily been 56-0), then I hardly think that leaving our stars in after the defense pulled their starters out of the game is bush league either.

This.

Wow, you absolutely fooled me.

I thought by your post that you were 7 or 10.

So you are admitting that Hayden Fry was classless? This could be a first in the history of Hawkdom...
 
Iowa plays a ranked opponent on the road this week and all their fans can talk about is some stupid touchdown streak. Get a life folks.

Oh don't worry, Ive watched plenty of game film on Arizona, and know all of my assingments. Wait, I don't play the game, guess I don't have to worry about that right now. :wink:
Its funny how I ask a simple question and everyone gets all upset. If you think its fine than just say that. I personally think it was cheep. The streak is not necessarily what matters to me, its that a coach would leave in starters that late in a meaningless game.

You're the definition of class. Trying to kick someone while they're down. Bravo! Bravo! You're awesome! I wish I could be as classy as you and every other Hawk fan that can't seem to move past a team they clearly care nothing about.

If I kicked you while you were down by just asking what you thought of your coach leaving in starters that late in a game, than you take it a little to seriously.

You care what our coach does? Why don't I believe you, trolly trollie troll!

Ahem... Hayden Fry... Ahem...
 
Obviously you did enough to reply:wink:
As I said, technically the streak is done, but I'm putting the Bary Bonds * next to it. Just can't see how leaving starters (risking injury for nothing) against a 3rd string D just to put a streak to an end is classy.

I don't care that we lost one of the games. That game was obviously not on the defense. I think the Iowa defense took pride in the stat, only to have it broke because KF had enough class to not put them back in there as time expired.

But what really makes me upset is now I'm going to have to send all of the "Iowa Defense - preventing ISU touchdowns since 2006" that I had made up to poor kids in Africa because now they're worthless!:realmad:

For your thread starter^
I guess when this is Iowa's Super Bowl...because we obviously don't care about Iowa 358 days out of the year.....it'd be different if they were in the Big 12

Yea...It was cheep..:confused:whatever cheep is....

I was watching the CPR show last night...I saw numerous Iowa defensive starters in late in the 4th quarter...I guess that was cheap too...

That's not the point of your post and you know it. You're trying to antagonize fans of a team that you're supposed to not care about. Are you so insecure that you need some sort of verification of how awesome you are because you cheer for a successful college athletics team? This has to be the saddest thread ever created on this site. I'm actually beginning to feel sorry for you. You must have a terrible life to need this boost. I'll give it to you and consider it my good deed for the day. You sir are a winner because you cheer for a winning college football program. Congratulations!

I lost a little respect for him is all. And look back on any previous posts Ive had, I don't troll, I am pretty respectful. When I started this thread I wanted to know what everyone thought about the subject, not to rub it in or anything, thats why I waited three days after the game to ask. I got a few good responses back where people actually responded with something to say, most well... not so much
 
its that a coach would leave in starters that late in a meaningless game.

So against EIU when Stanzi passed for a TD to go up 30 with about 8 minutes left in the game, was that meaningful or meaningless? Bush league or Classy?

So far you have told us Hayden Fry was classless, will you now become the first Hawk fan ever to call Ferentz classless? :skeptical:

Yes it is all us Hawk fans can talk about...or just one (AmesHawk).

* You guys are like bees to honey when a Hawk troll comes in.

I personally don't think it was "cheep" at all. ISU obviously needed to get some work in on their offense prior to KSU. I saw Stanzi and McNutt still playing into the 4th. So what, now ISU is "cheep" or busch league for keeping their starters in for an extra series or two?? Is ISU required to take out their starters the second iowa does to avoid being labeled busch league?

Listen, if some stupid hoks are upset about a meaningless TD streak, that's their problem. If it meant anything to KF, he would have put back in his starters when ISU got into the redzone. Maybe he was scared of getting them hurt? The only reason you guys are annoyed is that it's one less piece of smack that you could have run for the next 364 days (to fans of a team that you supposedly don't care about). Put in your little asterisk all you want, no one really cares what you think, loser.
