Wow, that sounds like multiple years and I didn't realize that. Same record in 98, ISU better at 4-7 and Iowa 1-10 in 99 and ISU 9-3 and Iowa 3-9 in 2000. Same record in 2001.

The thing with isu grad is that what ever they are arguing right now is only to be used for that very specific post. If you use their same logic anywhere else they get down right pissy.
But watching isu grad chase their tails is always entertaining.
Not sure if this a jab at agriculture or ISU or what. Iowa can wear ANF on their helmets and act to the rest of the country like they care about farming and agriculture, and then turn around and jab at ISU for being an ag school. Hypocritical Iowa fans, as usual.
Who is being little bro or obsessing in this thread? I just clicked on it for the first time. Looks like it was started by an Iowa fan, about an ISU recruit, on an Iowa football board, and other posters are baiting ISU fans to start posting in it. The ISU threads are always the biggest on the Iowa boards for obvious reasons. Don't act like you don't care about ISU, or don't follow them, or Campbell/Pollard don't get under your skin, etc. because that's obviously all true.
If you didn't care, or it didn't bother you, you wouldn't post (or respond), so obviously you do. Funny stuff.
And HerkyFan/100/JWR/Jeff.... once again your posts either don't make sense or are the same drivel as usual and no one pays attention to you. Go away.

Most threads and posts fly right over your head Kinky why would anyone think this one is any different. Oh and if no one pays attention to my posts then why have they been liked 319 times and several times within this thread alone?
Owning you Kinky is TOO EASY. JUST TOO DAMN EASY.

ISU basing their worth on Iowa...
beat Iowa = season is success regardless
lose to Iowa = who cares, season is over
BAU
Only 1 game a year matters in Ames.
What else do you do when you haven't won a conference title in over a century?

You actually are on to something Kinky.
Big brothers do have some fear inside them that little brothers may out shine them at some point. They play that fear off as amusement and tease the little brother.
That said, the clowns, and you by association, are little brothers through and through.
Once you outshine us, let's talk.
Yup. That's why we fired the coach that had a .500 record against Iowa, including 5 straight. You people are hilarious.
Again win a conference championship more than once a century and then get back to us.
You (??) fired Rhoads because he was a buffoon. Outside of the OSU upset all he could do was beat the Hawks 50% (again, ??) of the time.
5 straight? How many years was that clown the coach there? Could have sworn it was less than ten.
You are hilarious. Your old colleagues confirm as much.
Someday maybe you'll regale us with some tales of your "retirement".
Typical clown.
LC was referringto McCarney.
ISU fired him because they were dolts who thought their program could be anything more than a .500 club which historically they are not even that good.
McCarney raised the bar and they fired him for his efforts. Idiots.

Haha. I should have known he was talking 4 coaches ago. At least the numbers make sense now.
Everything else I said holds true. Just substitute OSU with...damn, I don't know, Iowa?
Yep, which may be their version of "Fire Tom Davis to bring in a coach to take the program to the next level." Hasn't happened yet.
I think it's fair to say Iowa State fans get a lot of gratification from Iowa State beating Iowa because of the whole playing second fiddle in the state over the years, but to think Iowa State fans only care about beating Iowa is inaccurate. I know a lot of them, and many of them view Iowa fans as uppity and delusional. Except me of course.
McCarney didn't beat Iowa enough so they fired him? That doesn't make sense
PR was MCCarney Jr. Pollard has the Sheep roped in perfectly. Wasting money on donations and season tickets to watch Sh!T, Clown fans are Sheep.

Facts do not seem to support your sentiment. Look at home game attendance for isu football. Even considering the most recently completed expansion of Jack Trice Stadium, the majority of games with the highest attendance are not games featuring conference opponents. UNI and Iowa occupy the fair share of those games at or near the top attended football games.
McCarney was fired (funny how isu and its fans had such difficulty using the word 'fired' when this event actually took place) because a certain AD was either too weak and timid to stand up to some disgruntled supporters or that same AD wanted to exercise his influence and show his might. It truly is as simple or complex as that. DM was dismissed with games remaining to be played (a strategy rarely witnessed at that time) so that isu could find the right man to lead isu onward and upward. Instead they got an egotistic co-defensive coordinator that drove the program further down followed by an over dramatic defensive coordinator that fell right into the trap of over emphasizing a certain non-conference game over others.
Ten years hence and isu is worse off than it was when Dan McCarney was there and he never had the support or facilities that the new hires have had.
The reason beating Iowa is so important is because Iowa is one of the worst teams ISU plays every year. To get to 6 wins, you have to beat Iowa, because Iowa is in the bottom 6 teams we play every year. Same again for 2016.
If the Iowa game is the only game that matters to fans why would they be disgruntled with McCarney and want him gone?
That simply is not true. Typically, the big xii is benefited by over-hyped preseason rankings that allow you to think some conference opponents to be better than they actually are ala Texas, West Virginia, Oklahoma State, Kansas State.
Just as recently as last fall, Iowa was not 'in the bottom six (6) teams' that isu played. To even begin to believe that, let alone post it, shows the breadth and depth of your bias and obsession.
This is the most moronic thing I have read in this entire thread. Which has a ton of moronic things being said by both sides. I'm sure it's going to pop into my head later today and I'll get another good laugh out of it.
Donnie Duncan had won three in a row when he got out Dodge just ahead of the posse. Mac inherited a program that had lost 12 straight to Iowa and won half his games against them. The guy who had the longest tenure at ISU was Jim Walden, who NEVER beat Iowa.
Moreover, if you go back over history and look at how the teams fared the week after the Iowa-ISU game, you will find that it was the Hawkeyes, not the Cyclones, who more frequently seemed to underperform.
I think it's fair to say the game means more to most Cyclones than it does to most Hawkeyes, in terms of fans. But the idea that ISU puts all its emphasis on the game is just a way for Hawkeye fans to excuse losing.....and a lot of Hawkeye fans on this board have conceded as much over the years.
LOL, we have no idea who the worst teams you play all year are because ISU is such trash, bottom 10 program year in and year out.
Iowa State was bad last year and I still know who the worst teams they played were.
Oh you do huh? Based on Iowa getting destroyed by Stanford you def know for sure Iowa was bad huh? LOL the fact you took Okie St to the brink says a lot about your Little 12 league. Kstate etc. The Big 12 was sh$T besides TCU/Baylor/OU.
I don't think nor did I say Iowa was one of the worst teams ISU played last year. Kansas, UNI, Kansas State, and Texas were the worst teams ISU played.
"Iowa is one of the worst teams ISU plays every year."
Last year would be considered every year wouldn't it?
So in 2016 ISU plays 2 other non conference games. UNI and SJSU. Big 12 Iowa better than Kansas, KSU, Texas has been awful of late, WVU, Texas Tech. So right there is 7 teams. Okie St & TCU I'll give as a toss up. I'm sure clone fans will say they are better but Iowa fans will disagree especially with TCU losing Boykin and Doctson on offense.
So besides OU and Baylor you could argue are consistantly better than Iowa most years and probably start the season ranked ahead of Iowa.
But thanks for showing your ignorance. You know some years yeah maybe Iowa is around bottom 6 but Iowa will be ranked in almost every pre season top 25 coming into next year. Last season final polls only OU and TCU finished ahead of Iowa. So Iowa was 3rd best team by final season rankings ISU played. I highly doubt just like the end of last season's rankings there will be 6 Big 12 teams ahead of Iowa next year.
Don't anyone dare ask isu grad when their bogus SOS will ever translate into teams with higher ranked SOS consistently beating teams with lower SOS. Maybe someday that will occur, but that day isn't today and it hasn't been that day for 6 plus years.
Leave it to isu grad to ignore any and all facts that prove this weak argument wrong.
When exactly will the bogus Texas Ten SOS ever play out in the post season? It hasn't for more than 6 years or must we ignore that isu grad?
