Re: Can the Panthers take down ISU on Sep 3rd?

If football games were decided with the top 8-12 players I could maybe agree that UNI is close to ISU talent wise..."close". But about 50 guys play in every game...13-50 is where the gap widens big time.

I agree, sort of. If UNI had to compete day in day out in the Big 10 / 12 they would need a lot more depth. # of scholarships, exposure and overall funding have much to do with that. But I think UNI is probably closer in talent to ISU to about the +/- 20th player and not the 8th. Last year in Ames and even two years ago at Iowa there was very little actual talent gap among the starting 22, and some would give the edge to UNI in some positions. I guess we will see in a little over a week, though. Should be fun.

You honestly have no idea what you're talking about. The scoreboard isn't ugly, it's impressive as hell in person. It's big time. No one can doubt that.

I have to agree Stewo. I was in Ames this week and stopped by to see the scoreboard and it does look pretty nice. Much better in person than the photos I had seen.

Great, now I'm going to be called a Dual Fan

Go Panthers!

It only looks nice because you can't see all of it at the same time when inside of Trice

I got two words for UNI. Jerome Tiller.

UNI should consider themselves fortunate Arnaud got hurt in the 1st series of the game last year. Give ISU those 5 turnovers with AA playing and things may have gotten real ugly.

Tiller performed at about the same level vs UNI as he did in starts vs NU, ATM, and Mizzou. Bad. Tiller proved over and over he was unable to lead this offense to points, and it took Jantz about a week and half of camp to surpass him in the QB race.

Kinda funny when coming from a program who's "best thing going for them" is a gigantic, ugly scoreboard that just enhances how out of date the rest of their venue is.

You do realize that Jack Trice is actually one of the newer stadiums in the Big 12, right?

Only Hawk fans would be delusional enough to talk so much crap about a school that beat them 27-0 the year before.

Nebraska beat ISU 35-7 in 2008 (28 pt differential). In 2009, ISU beats Nebraska. Different seasons can yield different results. *shrug*

Re: Can the Panthers take down ISU on Sep 3rd?

whats the talent conversation getting so heated for? we all know that in probably 3 years or so Iowa State will be in the Mountain West and the talent will be even more close

Re: Can the Panthers take down ISU on Sep 3rd?

Would like to see you provide a source for that nonsense.

The current ratio to active rosters is 10 ISU, 8 UNI. Far from 3:1.

If he doesn't understand simple ratios, he probably has a hard time comprehending how bad of a program ISU actually has.

C'mon guys...really? Didn't any of you pick up the fact that I posted the original number of pro's from each school? I realize it's a message board but I wasn't trying to hide my sarcasm...


BTW the word on the street is that a ferocious predator has been seen stalking the nation....

You do realize you have f-ing hills in your stadium right? JTS is really livin in the 21st century . There is nothing impressive about that place, considering it's been in the Big 8/12 for years with all of these other great programs. Btw, I didn't hear anyone deny that the scoreboard has people more excited than the actual team

Re: Can the Panthers take down ISU on Sep 3rd?

Personally I think Jack Trice is pretty nice and certainly adequate for a program like Iowa State.

pretty sweet if you ask me.



I absolutely love the UNI dome but it's not like it's the nicest place around.

This. I'm surprised that there hasn't been a new campaign for larger renovations.

I'm fairly confident that you are more excited about your non-stop, lame message board trash talk than you are about our team.
