There are a lot of bad defensive teams in the Big Ten. Maryland gave up 35 to Temple, Northwestern gave up 39 to Akron, Purdue gave up 40 to Mizzou, Rutgers gave up 55 to Kansas, Wisky gave up 24 to BYU, Penn State gave up 38 to Appy St. Heck, even Ohio State gave up 28 to TCU who could only muster 17 against ISU. There are some very good defenses in the Big Ten, but there are a bunch of poor ones too.
Iowa State loses again

Ya, interestingly in looking at common opponents,
isu d held iowa offense to 13 points while, compared to iowa scoring 17 points against wisconsin.
And isu d held tcu to 17 points, compared to tcu scoring 28 against ohio state.
Luckily for ISU that cancellation kept us from getting tape. Otherwise we'd have put up 40. Obviously.
Ya, huh, has iowa put up 40 on anyone this a year with that prolific offensive? Lol
Yeah NIU, UNI, B1G defenses obviously >>>> ISU.
Sorry. One of these years though...
You can pick out individual games, but as a whole, the B10 conference plays better smash mouth defense than the B12 does.
There really are ISU fans that think they'd do the same as Iowa or better in the B1G. It's plain laughable and pathetic.
Your lines wouldn't have been more physical or strong with the first game under their belts. Iowa whipped your boys along the lines. And they'd do it again tomorrow. And they'd win again tomorrow. Have fun with your season that will prove disappointing. You've got a number of additional losses coming. Guaranteed.
Maybe Iowa and Iowa State could schedule a game this year, play it, and see what happens and put this back and forth to bed for all but the stupid people.
Iowa, once again, is gifted with very weak schedule. While Iowa State will go against ranked team after ranked team. For instance compare the two teams' schedules the next 4 weeks. Iowa fans get lulled into believing they are better than they actually are. Iowa then ends up with a good record, gets overmatched and pummeled in a bowl game.
Guys you do ever feel sorry
Better to have gone and lost than never gone. Sad clowns

Iowa has had stronger SOS last 2 years and 3 out of the last 5. Seriously I've posted this data in response to your false claim how ISU has one every year how many times now? Yet you've not shown any data that proves otherwise but you keep spewing your BS. As for your "if no penalty on 1 yard line we would have won." Ok Iowa fans can say we would have won by more on drive they didn't throw flag on obvious PI in the end zone on Fant. Coulda, woulda, shoulda the ISU losers motto.

4 straight losses to Iowa. 8 losses in the last 11 to Iowa. Bottom line: Iowa State is inferior to Iowa.
I think Iowa St. has the potential to be one of the best defensive teams in the Big 12.
Wouldn't a strong Iowa St season make Iowa's schedule look better?
Iowa didn't exactly crush Iowa St this year.

Shucks!
Based on what, total scoring defense? You can't use that stat to compare defenses.
The Big 12 uses a high-tempo spread offense where the Big 10 is a ground and pound style. For example, Texas Tech is averaging 95 plays per game (52 pass attempts) where we only average 64 plays per game (25 pass attempts); that's 30% less plays to defend and half as many pass attempts!
Ya, thats correct, also after 4 weeks we will hear they are being disrespected in the polls and should be ranked higher, how they will beat osu for da b1g championship, and also can beat alabama for national championship in da cfp.

Wow epic fail. Difference between your attempt at humor about claiming stuff Iowa fans would say, which none of it has been said this year, is that ISU fans like yourself are ACTUALLY spewing the BS excuses. This thread is exhibit A. But nice try...
Also proper spelling and grammar is your friend. Try it sometime.
I do not agree this year. The fact that the Big Ten has lost so many games to non-quality opponents shows that the league, as a whole, is not that great defensively THIS YEAR. In the past, I would agree, but there is a ton of bad defense from Rutgers to Indiana to Illinois to Northwestern and so on.
Much as you're kidding here, the truth is...ISU likely benefited more from the "no tape" angle. Their offense is much more varied than Iowa's.
But...excuses are for losers...and clones. But, I repeat myself.
Clown fans love SOS when their team is 1-3. Iowa owns isu just deal with it.
Ya, you may want to revisit da 2015 and 2002 seasons, deja vu
Hey why don’t the clowns make a New Years Six Bowl before they throw rocks at Iowa’s performance.
Do we need to add USC to the list of teams isu needs to have fight their Iowa for them?

How does 2002 and 2015 have anything to do with this idiotic post? You mention 4 weeks then bring up 2 seasons from the past??? And make claims few if any Iowa fans have made this year or years past. No one saying we would should be ranked before or after Wisc. loss this season. So ok 16 years ago lot of Iowa fans thought we could beat OSU. What's your point? Lot of college football analyst at the time thought they could too. In 15' OSU didn't even make the Big 10 title game, nice try.... In 02' Alabama sucked and even though we had a phenomenal year I didn't remember too many people thinking or posting anything about being better than Bama in 15'. So again great epic fail with your post.
Link? Or just another clown fan spewing BS again?Ya, thats correct, also after 4 weeks we will hear they are being disrespected in the polls and should be ranked higher, how they will beat osu for da b1g championship, and also can beat alabama for national championship in da cfp.
Come on Nelie Clown, you can do it, you can do it, you can do it.
Ya, that seems to go against da traditional coach speak that "teams improve the most from game 1 to game 2".
Everyone knows iowa had da bigger advantage this year due to that, everyone is saying so
ISU fans and SOS, it never ends. Guess that is all you have when you are a doormat.
Based on your idiot logic, the clones should cross their fingers that they don't have to play Army in a bowl game.

Reading comprehension not that good..eh Cy? My post specifically referred to the "tape" angle. Improvement between game 1 and 2 is another factor of course.
Still, you lost and you're making excuses. Why do clones do that sooooo much? I see other fan bases talk about coaching mistakes, missed opportunities and bad plays... clones bitch more about "getting screwed"..be it the officials, the weather, the "strong" conference they're in
...etc etc than any fan base out there. It makes you look bad.
Moron. You sat here and predicted a win despite not playing that first game anyways. Iowa lost their starting RB coming in, and had several starters that didn't get that first game either. Further, ISU had a 17th year QB coming back with your returning RB, and most of their defense. This excuse isn't valid. ISU is not as good as Iowa, it showed. Your offense, which you guys thought was going to be SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO good, just isn't.

Iowa had the advantage because our DL dominated the game. The talent difference between the Iowa DL and the isu OL wasn’t going to change because you did or ddin’t play SDSU.

This won’t be acceptable to clown fans. They will ignore anything that doesn’t fit their delusions.
You mean when he said Iowa is no longer fake id or must he now be ignored?
But.....ISU *DID* have a game before playing Iowa. At least in Pollard's mind, because the ISU players who were suspended for a game were considered to have served their suspension and were reinstated for the Iowa game.
See how that logic works?
