Official: Where's the Gamethread? Gamethread: Iowa Poaches some Sheep from Out West

Was it ugly. Yes. Was it a win? Yes, and that is more than the Clowns can say.

"But but this is the best team we've ever had, with the best quarterback, with not one but two Heisman candidates, with the best head coach that ever lived," the Clown says. And yet, you are 2-2.

 
This was a good tuneup for the Big

Much better than a slaughter from the start
Today was not great. Way too close for way too long. No way to sugar coat it.

That said, you usually learn more from a loss than you do from a win for the simple fact that, after a L, you've automatically got everyone's attention.

This wasn't an L (thankfully), but it was an ugly W against a team that should have been a cupcake. Hopefully there will be a lot of attentiveness in the meeting rooms this week.

You could see the Baylor loss coming a mile away.

Turn that pick into a TD for Iowa and we're looking at a solid 31-7 win. Not to mention being in the redzone at the end of the game. Ugly game, but I think CO State may be a better team than their record appears. Ugly as hell, but it's a win.
 
CSU is better than what everyone has thought. They will have some good wins this year. Hopefully Wyoming is one of those. Go Rams. However go Hawks!!! I have degrees from both Iowa and CSU..
