you want to know how you know a coach hosed up? you watch a team go up 28-7 in the first 20 minutes of the game and then a field goal during the last 40.

This should be the sort of thing that makes people talk seriously about ending the series, but lol.

Timeline here:

Right after the game, there were already some social media whispers that something bad had happened with the band, which kicked into overdrive after our worthless failure of an athletic director released a statement that gave no details (beyond the band getting booed, which, duh) but said they were "investigating an incident"

The next day the ISU AD said he hadn't hear anything but also the Iowa State band is mistreated in Kinnick too so both sides are bad and to blame here.

The ISU AD and Iowa's useless empty suit poo poo for brains AD release a joint statement that basically just reiterates the Iowa State "both sides" excuse and tells everyone to chill and be nice to the band and that the investigation into the matter was now closed after all of 48 hours

People in the Iowa Band, who had kept quiet because the administration told them they were investigating, got understandably pissed about being abandoned and started giving details on social media, most notably alleging groping and a physical assault that left one of the band members with a broken rib. This is consistent with some the rumors I'd heard before so I tend to believe it.

In a normal situation this would get everyone involved fired but instead I expect Gary Barta will somehow get a raise

i know exactly why Gary Barta still has a job, but jesus loving christ why does that man still have a job. he's been through a few incidents that would have gotten a less entrenched AD shitcanned, and each time it underlines that he could not give half a poo poo about any student who is not actively making him and the athletic department money. if all the gender discrimination stuff didn't do the job, unfortunately this probably won't either

but ooh look a rose bowl guess he should stick around

They haven't showed a great replay yet but I thought the third down pass was in the end zone?

it probably was, but they called it down on the field and they couldn't stop to review because Ole Miss didn't have a timeout and had to get a 4th down play run before time ran out

no one talked about it because i don't think the game was very interesting but after their embarrassing ending last week, Iowa State went out and ritually slaughtered ULM 72-20, with Brock Purdy putting up a stat line that would make Cam Newton (college happy Cam, not sad broken 2019 Cam) very happy. Dude threw 21/27 for 435 and 3 touchdowns, plus he ran for 75 and 3 more touchdowns.

How many band members got assaulted after the game

hey now their AD wrote a very stern letter excoriating the behavior of both fanbases which means i'm sure all of those drunken louts in Ames were on their best behavior

plus i'm sure ULM left their band at home

The Illini ran the clock out on the half with a lead on Nebraska when they could have taken timeouts and tried to get points..

Clearly they get at least 1/2 a win for winning the 1st 2 quarters.

nothing would be funnier to me than ESPN immediately regretting giving Gameday to a school who can't even beat the Illini

edit: like jesus El Assico was terrible but at least it was competitive until the very last play, this is just ESPN going to laugh at a team right before they lose to the Buckeyes by 50

Dawgs are being strategic here by possibly losing this game so they don't have to inevitably do it to Bama later, clever

i was thinking today that the SEC might have 4 of the best five teams in the country this year and as if they heard me and wanted to say "slow your roll, son", the Georgia Bulldogs are proving me wrong in literally the worst possible way

lose to loving Ole Miss, not these loving cops

For anyone not watching the nebraska game , illinois is holding onto a lead that's based entirely off forced fumbles. It's great

Illinois has like 300 yards less of offense

reminds me of one of my favorite all time football games

around the third red zone fumble you start to wonder if god himself interfered in the results of this game just to embarrass the Huskers.

alright, fast forward to December of this year for a second.

UCLA has just completed an 0-12 (or 1-11 if you want to be really kind) season. 2 questions:

1: Does Chip Kelly keep his job?
2: If not, where does he go next?

it's the most Wazzu thing in the world for their QB to tie the single game TD pass record midway through the third and then sit down to let the backup come in because they're up and then break the record because the team that was down 32 has brought it within a score
