Oh that's right we didn't, so what's the point of this thread?
2016 in Ames is going to be painful with Richardson and Lazard carve us up.
I watched the game last night and even though their defense is terrible, they're a fun team to watch on offense. Watching a competent offensive coordinator get the most out of the available talent is not something I get to see much being an Iowa fan.
ISU is a top ten team as far as strength of schedule using the NCAA method. They come in at #7, in fact.
We, on the other hand, slot in at a healthy 85th for the 2014 season. Personally, I'd be hesitant to talk smack after losing to them, especially in light of this information.

On this website, they're #6 and we're 70th....

The B12 has no good out of conference wins, Iowa states win over us is the conferences best out of conference win. They lost every game against quality opponents and that's why they won't get a team in the playoff.

So people like Mike can try and make themselves feel better because ISU lost.
In reality, all it does it does it make him look all butthurt since Iowa State came into our house and beat us.
Already got my 2014 ISU Top Ten SOS t-shirt preordered, you bought yours yet?
I'm a Hawk fan. I just think we should back off a bit when they actually beat us and acknowledge that, at least this year, their schedule is stacked against them.
