My favorite recent ISU moment is bittersweet. Their epic meltdown against K-State where they were up by a TD with just over a minute left and had the ball and only needed to kneel to run out the clock and still somehow lost the game. Unfortunately that was the final nail in the coffin for Rhodes and now they actually have a good coach.

Wasn't Row-adds like .500 against Kirk though? But Kirk can't seem to lose against Campbell, so maybe it did work out for the better? He's 5-0 versus Campbell now, right? Or 4-0?
My favorite moment was when McCarney was still around. It's been a while, but they were playing against Missouri for a North division title in Jack Trice. I was there with my dad, also a Hawkeye fan, to see my brother in the ISU marching band. It was freezing balls. I couldn't feel any of my toes by the end of it. Anyway, all ISU has to do is a hit a chip shot FG to seal the victory. Nope, misses it, and their B12 championship hopes crumbled.

Sash and Greenwood had career games that day.
Sash had 10 tackles, 2 for loss, 3 interceptions returned for 63 yards, and a forced fumble.
Greenwood had 6 tackles, 2 interceptions, and 4 passes defended.

Favorite Hawkeye picture ever.

Bravo. Anything that starts with multiple fans falling down the stands sets the tone for greatness.
Austen Arnaud had a career day too.

I don't know of many since I don't watch their games because I don't give a shit. But if I had to pick one from looking at box scores it would have to be the time they lost to North Dakota State. For those who don't know, North Dakota State is a so-called "FCS" program. Granted, it is a good one, but a FBS program should NEVER lose to a FCS program. The fact that Iowa State is such a bunch of jagoffs that they lost to North Dakota State is just absolutely hilarious. What a turd of a program.

Paul Rhodes doing a guitar concert on the sidelines.
Marshal Yanda committing murder.
Dude trying to catch a punt with his shoulder blades.
"It's been fun kicking your ass for 4 years"
Hayden's flea flicker in Ames (vivid memory as I was in attendance and said that Iowa should run a trick play to rub it in.)
UAB and Hampton
Andy Brodell punt return
ISU's now 22 season losing streak to Iowa in baseball
Wide right to end chance for division title
Larry Eustachy + Natty Lite = hilarity

I was at that game. On the hillside. Remember it well. What a beat down. Austin Arnaud's favorite receivers always were Hawkeyes.

Awesome!
I'll admit, though, that at the beginning when the dumbass students were falling down the bleachers, I thought the song was saying "dumb shit".
ISU fan here. I was at that game, and you are right, it was brutally cold. They actually missed 2 field goals - one to win it regulation, and one to tie it in OT. When the second was missed it was just dead silence in the stadium. Everybody just turned and left.
Although, I'd put next year up against it. I went down to Lawrence, all ISU had to do was beat a 5-5 KU team. Already bought tickets to the Big 12 championship game. Lose on a field goal again. Get back in the car, drive back to Ames, where ISU's top 25 basketball team was playing Iona... where they proceed to just get destroyed. Truly nut kicking day of epic proportions.

Over under on the percentage of posters here who get that reference?

You must be new here.
@okeefe4prez did that on purpose.
Stick around and you'll learn a little about comedy. It'll elevate your game from Larry The Cable Guy to Bill Hicks.

Yes, almost forgot this one! I was in the first few rows of the student section for that one and didn't get the best view of it, unfortunately. You could tell from the crowd reaction that it was just a brutal hit though. Those peel back blocks are illegal now I'm pretty sure.
