I still feel like throwing up, and it's 9:40 (eastern time.)

Re: Please don't anybody...

I made the mistake of getting on my Facebook just now and all I can say is...


Is it absolutely impossible for any Iowa fans to give credit where credit is due????


Okay --- I realize there were many very nice Iowa fans after the game today. Maybe I just need to get some new friends. Cuz I sure know a lot of ignorant ones.

You need to have thicker skin and not be so easily offended.

An honest question... why do you post on here?

Because I like UNI.

It's perfectly alright to be offended by ignorance and stupidity of that magnitude.

I totally agree with you. This is a prime example why after we play Iowa I will never wish them luck, but rather hope they lose every game. All month long and expecially this week with the suspensions and injuries all I hear is how the score will be 56-0 and we will never score on "one of the best D's in the country" and how the Oline is the best ever and blah blah blah. Yet UNI proves that wrong, loses on the last play of the game and Iowa fans act like they won the NC. I didnt hear a single Iowa fan talking trash DURING the game when they were scared to death in the first half, but then afterwards WOW. It sucks that this makes the nice Iowa fans look bad because there were a lot of them today who were genuinely impressed by UNI.

Re: Please don't anybody...

all this talk of stupid Iowa fans, so I took a gander over at an Iowa bored, cuz I needed a laugh.

Someone had this to say about Austin Howard:

I thought he did a decent job, but he held quite often and it was not called.

So in other words..... he's an offensive lineman.
There is holding on just about EVERY play, and it seems to me that the good o-linemen are the ones who know how to get away with it.

to give the hawkfans credit though, that was in a thread where the original poster was praising Howard (despite not knowing who he was)

Re: Please don't anybody...

I'd take my chances against that Iowa team again next Saturday and believe we could battle them toe to toe just like we did today, and probably get the win this time.

Now lets flush that one and go get some hardware.

Good post Blue. It's disappointing that we had this one in our grasp and let it get away, but it's time to move on. The better team did not win today and we would give them a good fight every time if we played them again. But that's not what our season is all about. Let's just go run the table for the rest of the season and win a national championship, that'll take away the sting of today's loss!

I just want to point out that isn't just our friend Homer, the Starry-Eyed Fan saying those sorts of things, either:

COACH FERENTZ: I think so. First of all, we were fortunate to win today and we did win, so you know, I think that’s a double positive there.
And when we come in tomorrow and look at the tapes you don’t even have to look at the tapes. The tapes will reveal more things, but there are a lot of things today that we couldn’t convert or couldn’t get done that a lot of times will come in and end up and cost you and cost you at much the ballgame. It wasn’t just us not getting it done, but it was UNI denying us or them executing, those types of things. I don’t want to say it in a way where we blew it. We didn’t blow it. They really played an excellent football game, and they were better than us quite frankly most of the game.

From Kirk Ferentz's post-game press conference. I'm sure he's glad they don't face us again until 2012 and I can guarantee he'll remind that squad of this game. We'll still get 'em next time.

Re: Please don't anybody...

went out in Des Moines in my Sanders jersey. And of course I got looks and some comments. Not ONE Iowa fan would come up and say something to my face (I'm a mere 150 lbs, have glasses - not threatening) but they just shout things to each other. "uuuuuh if we lost today, I'd kill myself uuuuuhh". Of course drunk. Hawk fans drunk? That never happens. Acting like they own the world and everyone else is below them. Most fans show class but the ones who do not, take it far enough to ruin it for everyone. No comments all week, (made sure I had something UNI on all week) squeek out a victory and its trash talk time. Maybe they should schedule Grandview next year. Or Simpson

Re: Please don't anybody...

I really want to thank those of you in the game thread with updating things so well. I knew I could rely on Panther Nation to do that much better than any other outlet. All I had was the internet on my phone to keep updated.

Does anyone else but me find it ironic that we lost on two blocked FGs when we have won several games over the past few years blocking extra points and FGs?

I was at an outlet mall in Jeffersonville, OH an hour or so after the game wearing my UNI hat and T-Shirt and an Ohio State fan congratulated me on a good game.

Ironically, Ohio State won their game over Navy due to special teams play as well: Navy scored a TD that brought them within 2, so they of course elected to go for the 2-pt conversion. But the pass was picked off by a Buckeye and returned all the way to the other endzone, which netted OSU 2-points.
