Iowa State is weak against the spread, the up the middle, the end run, the bomb, the flat pass, the screen pass and every other football play that has been used since 1894.

Iowa went up against Texas Tech and held them down.
Oklahoma and Oklahomas State are going to score against EVERYONE not just Iowa.
That streak continues tomorrow
Dumba$$, walked right into that one. Surprised you did not let someone else come up with that gem. Couldn't resist, could you?
Someone should start a thread on CYFan "Iowa State weak against other football teams."
I saw a thread earlier that made me laugh that tried to prove the Iowa's defense wasn't weak against the spread. Great use of statistics to prove the point. However Iowa has not faced a good spread offense. When I mean good i talking the Big 12 spreads. Texas Tech, Oklahoma State, Oklahoma, Baylor. Missouri last year was not IMO a good spread offense Gabbert was a good QB but not a spread QB. After seeing these teams last year and what they did this year they would tear Iowa apart.
Texas doesn't run a spread offense.
According to ESPN they do:
48 teams run the spread offense - ESPN
We have played and beat 3 of 4 teams on that list, now go away...
Texas doesn't run a spread offense.
Iowa did ok against a very good Georgia Tech spread offense a couple years ago. Cy fans, always talking through their a$$.
That was not a spread offense at all. It was basically a glorified Wing T. When I define a good spread offense I look at a qb who put up over 30 tds in a season or more. 40 in two years for a big 12 spread is not that good. Bradford had 50 tds in a season and he's on his way to stardom in the NFL so maybe the defenses those years weren't that bad.
Gabbert numbers his junior and senior year:
24 TDs and 9 Ints
16 TDs and 9 Ints
Daniel his junior and senior year:
33 and 11
39 and 18
Daniel nearly did what Gabbert did in his career in one year. IMO Gabbert easily could be a bust.
