Unfortunately, it looks like you beat a crappy Hawkeye team...

[BrewHawk]

...sorry we aren't holding up our end of the deal. We're a shit-show right now on defense and the offense isn't much better. I haven't seen execution this bad from an Iowa team in a long time. Even the 4-8 team from a few years ago was more outclassed rather than out-executed. Ferentz still can't handle success.

Hopefully things get better, but it's going to take a major turnaround for that to happen.

Go win the rest of your games and enjoy your weekend in Frisco!

Ferentz just got a huge extension....:facepalm2:

He's set.

Are we still thinking about Iowa? We have a MVFC championship to worry about.

They usually start slow and finish strong. Illinois State held Northwestern to 6 though so that is concerning

We broke another FBS team?

[AKBison]

We broke another FBS team?

It's amazing that every time we beat an FCS team their fans come back on here to tell us how we caught them while they were down and that some, (KSU, KU, CSU, ISU and now Iowa) have been bad since our victory.

Well, most of them were bad teams and Iowa just barely beat and then lost to two teams NDSU would have man handled and that I thought Iowa would as well so they are definitely struggling. I just hope they are able to fix some things and pull out some games against upcoming ranked opponents, but I wouldn't put money on that happening.

I know you meant this in a informative way, and I hope the Hawkeyes get things back together soon. There is a boat load of talent on that team. It is a funny year this year.
Illinois state beat northwestern, Indiana state beat Illinois state, now the worst team in our conference pounded Indiana state.
Iowa might still have a go of they pull it together?

It's bullshit all pundits talk about NDSU not being able to handle the regular season grind in FBS conferences. Your WR Vandenberg broke his leg and your team is already throwing the towel and ready to give up.

Curse of the Billy Goat, Curse of the Bambino, Curse of the Bison---

[Bisonator98]

3 things happen to FBS teams when we beat them:

1. They attempt to change thinking that they did something wrong to allow us to beat them.

2. They are beaten physically and emotionally when they realize NDSU was just the better team.

3. They believe their season is over and just don't put the extra effort into the rest of the games.

Number 3 is the biggest difference between the FBS and FCS. An FBS team loses and they are pretty much done. Players no longer put in the effort and it shows. An FCS teams loses a game and they still have a shot at the PO's and championship. I think the players keep putting in max effort. I think that's evident in a lot of those big FCS over FBS wins and what those FBS teams end up doing the rest of the year. Very few recover emotionally.

[ndsubison1]

I thought Beathard was a top QB?

[ZHerd]

I thought Beathard was a top QB?

According to comments I've read, he may be dinged up. They are also saying that every QB under Ferentz gets worse each year in that system. Someone even threw up a stat on it that, if true, was pretty interesting. This may sound silly to some people but I think Peyton Mansell really shot himself in the foot long term switching verbals. NDSU is turning out great QB's. I won't be surprised if Stick turns into an NFL draft prospect in two years.

[Christopher Moen]

I thought Beathard was a top QB?

I responded in a different thread that I believe his is still hurt from the collision he took from three Bison and that he isn't being sat due to his NFL potential.

That in itself is hurting them both. Rest him for a week or two and then let him play when he is healthier and more efficient. It's no different than when Wentz played hurt, especially the UNI game.

Iowa looked fine before NDSU. Beat Iowa State 42-3 a team that nearly knocked off Baylor

[BrewHawk]

No. I've watched a ton of Iowa football and this goes way beyond anything your huge Bison egos can drum up.

Iowa's 2009 top ten, Orange Bowl champion team played a very similar game vs UNI, only to block two consecutive field goals and come out on top. This Iowa team isn't anywhere near as good as that team. Not even in the same zip code. We won't beat Minnesota if we can't slow down the run, and I don't see anyone walking through the door that's going to change that anytime soon.

Sorry you guys can't get a win against a decent FBS team. It's gotta be killing many of you to still not have the "signature win" over anybody with a pulse (not directed to you ZHerd, you get where I'm coming from).

You guys might lose every game or you might surprise some teams, which is what I'm hoping for. Watch NW. They will probably beat an Ohio St./Mich type team and then get blown away by the worst remaining team on their schedule.

Once again, another P5 team managed to hang around and keep things close with us, and their fans think we are world-beaters. I wish they would schedule us when we are good...it's almost like they know they are going to get us in a down year, 4 years in advance when we sign the contracts.

There's a lot of wisdom in this post. A good friend of mine who is a Nebraska fan always says about FBS...every game is a playoff. Even with that joke of a 4 team "playoff" it still holds true. Once Iowa lost to us they were done. No shot at a national championship. I mean, they did...but they really didn't. And the players knew it. And if effects their play moving forward.

[Green1]

Iowa has really pulled a fast one on the Bison. First, they pretend to be the number 13 team in the nation. Then after they loose to the Bison, their fans inform us they are really a piss poor team. WHY do we keep falling for this from FBS teams? My gosh, once, maybe twice but SIX straight times? How do we keep falling for this? Well played, Iowa. Well played.

I believe they have a few decent teams (Wisconsin and Michigan, maybe Michigan State) that can be challenging, while they really only have one team (Ohio State) that is National Championship material.

[Christopher Moen]

Looks like I might have been right after all (Post #1262 from the "Iowa" thread):


Well, there's this, I believe Iowa is going to lose four to five games in their regular season schedule this year. Last year, they overachieved during an easy season schedule. They won't be able to get away with that this year. Wisconsin and Michigan will be loses. Penn State and Nebraska will be probable loses. Iowa State, North Dakota State and Northwestern are possible loses.

Which of course led to these hilarious replies:


Put down the crack pipe,not gonna happen.


WTF? A minor league team is making fun of an otter team's schedule?

Also, just from a googling, I saw that Iowa beat Wisconsin at Wisconsin last year, beat Nebraska at Nebraska last year, beat Iowa State at Iowa State last year, and beat Northwestern at Northwestern last year. They get all four of those teams (and Michigan) in Iowa City this year.

So your unbelievably stupid argument is that Iowa's schedule is getting tougher this year, and then you predict they lose at home to a bunch of teams they beat on the road last year? Has the contaminated ground water from shale extraction rotted out the greasy little tendrils in your pathetic brain?

Time to drop the mic and move on as the Bison have bigger and better things to accomplish this year.

[wagsabison]

The Gophers are somehow, at least in this town, incredibly overrated this year. Normally, people think they're better than they really are, but there had been plenty of legitimate 9-3 or 10-2 expectations this year that were absolutely loony. I think after 2 weeks of WTF just happened the rivalry week gets Iowa refocused. My prediction is that IA returns to normal this week, boat races MN to get back on track and proceeds as planned from here on out.

Dave: Yeah but they got killed by Iowa.

Interesting thread started by a Hok fan. It is the same conversation whenever we beat them in any sport. "Oh, I guess we weren't any good." They are so dismissive, rather than accept the fact that they are good, but not as good as they thought. It gets so old.

After the game with Iowa State, all of them still thought they were a good team. All week before your game, they thought they were a good team.

You didn't "expose" them as a bad team. You may have "caused" them to become a bad team by completing the break of confidence that started with the fracture made by Stanford, but was mended by gaining an early lead against Miami (OH) and us.

I think many here agree. They were in the big ten championship last year. Lost very few seniors. Same coaches. Home game. But somehow they're not any good now??? Weird.....

[Gully]

The hawkeyes had their shot at glory. Since I have a degree from Gopherville as does family, it is Ski U Ma time. Go Gophers. Just remember the age old question: Who hates Iowa? (Reply: We hate Iowa) which is asked at every rodent game.

I'm looking forward to watching Iowa / Minnesota today. Don't really care who wins but I suppose I have to pull for Iowa for help in the "my team is better than your team" arguments.

[oldmantutters]

No FBS fan base has been more disrespectful (with absolutely no justification) than the Goophers. There's three things I hope for every Saturday of the CFB season, Bison win, Gophers get boatraced, and an apocalypse to hit Grand Forks. That last one I hope for every day of the year, and of course centered upon the UND campus.

Go Iowa.

The only thing that will help that stadium is to demolish it and start over. What a crap hole. No leg room. The concourse was a nightmare at half. The food choices were early 80's metrodome-ish and the power plant next to it is an eyesore. The only redeeming quality of that stadium is the children's hospital overlooking the field.

So, I'm confused again. Did we beat Iowa because they're a crappy team, because they were looking past us, because it was our Super Bowl, because they had injuries, or because we got lucky?

The progression goes from "we suck" / "it's a down year" to "you'd never beat us like we're playing now."

Gopher fans perfected this.

Almost word for word from a text I received from a Hawkeye alum last night.

I sure wish we were allowed to improve over the course of a season.

Ndsu would beat Michigan

NDSU would have as good of a shot as MN, who when they need to step up and win, they just don't, as they proved again yesterday.

I hate it when our social media team posts shit like this...I may be in the minority, but its bush league.

I like it. Good clean fun and a majority of people are enjoying the humor. Michigan fans are way more upset with the loss than a small tweet from us. Fact check the numbers!

NDSU twitter accounts do an excellent job of walking the fine line with these kind of tweets.

I think this one was well done. Definitely achieved the job of putting their win against Iowa back into the media.

I agree sometimes with that sentiment but that tweet was gold.

NDSUs social media handlers suck to the highest degree, I agree with aces here..but that tweet was savage as fuck and unexpected by many. Props to them for that one
