Re: Iowa fans

we didnt miss collins or law. hord ad eyman played very well and i have yet to see/hear/read about a single person who wished law would have had some carries over anderson. i thought about this before I posted the comments in question. most people actually sounded HAPPY that law was out.

Okay, well here's one. I would have liked to have had Law available for a few carries, as there were clearly points where Carlos looked a little fatigued and it was obvious we would be passing. But I think the big thing we found out with this game is what might have taken a few games for us to come to if Law hadn't been suspended, and that is that Carlos should be getting the majority of carries and be THE featured back. Law will do quite well in the same role he played last year as the next back in and I think he will still get around 500-600 yards this year in that role.

Hord and Eyman did play well, as did Herring. But it sure would have been nice to have Collins there too.

But... injuries happen. Can't fault the guy for going hard at practice.

Re: Iowa fans

We MISSED Collins on the punt returns. Herring was taking too many chances, but he was thrown into that role without much prep time.

I think Hord and Turner did a great job of catching in traffic. Oordt seemed to be open on the sidelines often.

I also agree with a previous post having Davis back will allow Grace to be more aggressive.

Another question that I didn't pay to close of attention to: Is our FG oline different than our Offense Oline? The new punting formation seemed to provide good protection.

Re: Iowa fans

I stopped by a tailgate on my way into the stadium and asked this Iowa guy for a beer. I was actually just going to help myself out of his cooler because I figured he wouldn't mind.

If I didn't know you and you walked up and took beer out of my cooler I wouldn't like it either.

I didn't make it to the Sports Column in Denver (home of the Rocky Mountain Iowa Alumni Club) for the game but I did go down there for the CU/CSU game last night (CSU will end up getting more of my money than UNI when grad school is over so I think I have a right to cheer for the Rams). Our waitress was complaining about how she had worked the UNI/Iowa game and the Iowa fans starting getting really rude and inconsiderate when they realized their team may not be as good as they thought. You stay classy, Iowa fans.

Re: Iowa fans

OK first of all I am what people hate on this board the hated dual fan with Iowa being the team I will always cheer for. So I know I'll get ripped for this comment.

But reading some of your posts where Iowa fans were so awful just makes me laugh. Your fans were not all that innocent either. In section 108 up about 15 rows (roughly 300 + people) all the UNI fans were standing on there bleacher seat. Many of your fans were asked by other fans to stand on the concrete and not on the bleacher seat. None of them would. It took a guy getting the police to get them to get down so others could see. Even then some of your fans had to be told a couple times.

I have never seen this done at UNI even in the student section. Yet they figured it was alright to do it at Iowa. Yes the student section does it at Iowa but everyone does it and it's not effecting anyone's view. No one cared if you stood on the concrete remember before you decide to flame me.

I will say after everyone finally got down they stayed down and were no other problems with this. The UNI fans in the tailgating lots were also very good. I also realize that many of the fans standing on the bleachers did it because other people were doing it. Yes I could have done it to see but I wanted to respect my other Season Ticket Holders around me (Yes I am a season ticket holder for Iowa).

Now that I vented I will be in the dome Saturday with my Black shirt cheering on the Panthers. I will not be wearing any Iowa gear.

Re: Iowa fans

Standing on bleachers is really dumb,
unless you're really short (in which case you standing on the bleacher isn't much different than a normal person standing on the cement)

Re: Iowa fans

I stopped by a tailgate on my way into the stadium and asked this Iowa guy for a beer. I was actually just going to help myself out of his cooler because I figured he wouldn't mind. He took one look at me and said, "you look like you have had enough, son." And he snatched the unopened beer from my hand. That really made me mad. I wasn't that guy's son. After the game I walked by again and he yelled at me, "are you still trying to steal beer, like you tried to steal the game?" That made me mad again but I didn't say anything this time. I was thinking about apologizing for trying to steal the beer before but then I thought, no way, screw you.

Look, if you were wearing UNI colors and it was homecoming...I'd get pissed too if you just walked up and took a beer out of our cooler without asking. You're just asking for more trouble by doing that to the opposing fans, and if you would've gotten your nose broken, so be it.

The Iowa fan in question had every right to ***** you out, and you were lucky nobody got more mad.

Re: Iowa fans

Had a lot of trouble before the game walking around, I expected it but it doesn't change the fact it was ignorant crap. After the game Iowa fans were the most humble I have ever saw them

Re: Iowa fans

Sad part was is that when I went up to tell the bouncer about the stuff they were throwing at us, I got kicked out because a lady said I threw my drink at her even though she was completly dry and my cup had been empty since halftime because I had to drive back to CF. This was at the end of the 3rd quarter also

Sorry.

Then you stepped out outside of the bar, got run over by a black-and-gold Geo Metro, and the ICPD refused to do anything but turn the fire hoses on you. Then you proceded to get impregnated by some Hawkeye fan who just looked at you wrong, but no one did anything there either.

This seems awfully one-sided. A bar isn't going to kick you out based on the word of one "Completely dry" fan.

LOL. Nice work.

Re: Iowa fans

CSU/UNI dual fan, eh? Does that mean we can share an intense, burning hatred of BYU since I'm a Utah/UNI dual fan?

If I didn't know you and you walked up and took beer out of my cooler I wouldn't like it either.
