Bowls '05: both Iowa and Iowa State get taken out behind the woodshed...

[Hobarticus]

Not forgetting UNI's loss earlier.

Only weeping and grumbling allowed in this thread.

[Itchinjim]

1. Worst officiating I've ever seen in my life.

In spite of that, Go Hawks!

[Debi]

3. "A penalty marker for TACKLING?" sheesh

But the Gators don't have to worry about having 12 men on the field! :eyes:

What a heart breaker of a game!

(Now, rumors of Ferentz heading the Green Bay makes my heart go pitter-patter :loveya:)

[IA_Seth]

4. oh puke!

A Deaniac AND a Packers fan?! I don't know how much more I can take...

Hee hee.

[Debi]

7. YES I AM!!!

Please don't tell me you like the Dallas Cowboys??!! That could end our cyber-friendship! :cry:

[IA_Seth]

10. Lol...

No I am a Chokeland Raiders fan..its tough being a fan in these darkest days, but I think I'll live!

[Debi]

18. Then even in our differences we will have something in common. n/t

[Bluzmann57]

6. Good Grief! A Packer fan as well as a Hawk fan?

You are one classy dame apparently. If Ferentz goes to the NFL, Green Bay is where I want him. Packers, Hawks, yay! Democrat as well. Debi, you got it all. I commented on the "officiating" elsewhere, so I won't do it here. It just upsets me too much.

[Debi]

8. My husband says the only thing left was for me to come with a bass boat

(Of course, that's scary as he's not really a big fisherman....:yoiks:)

[IA_Seth]

11. Lol, your husband sounds hilarious. n/t

[Bluzmann57]

12. Yeah a Bass boat would be nice

But I guess we can't have everything. lol. Of course up there in Cedar Falls you have no rivers to fish, where here we have the mighty Mississippi, nuclear plant and all.

[Critters2]

5. Absolutely

Appalling...but the Hawks were classy in the face of it all. Makes me proud, again, to be an Iowan.

[Debi]

9. I guess when Ferentz was asked about the officiating he said it was

"consistent" Yes, that is class.

[Hobarticus]

15. "Consistent"-ly crappy!

Been seeing a rash of crappy officiating lately, in both collegiate and pro sports. Guess they're tired of the season, too.

[CornField]

2. I'll weep

Yet again my Chiefs don't have a date to the big dance. At least the Hawks and Clones shook it a bit in front of the DJ. ;)

[Rambis]

13. Clone fan here

I don't believe we will ever win a big game ever!
I almost boxed my ISU stuff up and sent it to friends but there were so many shirts/ sweatshirts/hats yard sign it would have cost me a fortune to mail. I am thinking free cycle. I have watched this for 30+ years and it never suprises me but it still makes me sick everytime it happens. I blame my parents for raising me in Ames damnit!
Why not Duke mom and Dad?

[Hobarticus]

14. Stay the course, fellow 'clone...

When you turn away from the Cyclones, terror wins.

[Rambis]

16. It is just so brutal! (nm)

[Critters2]

19. LOL!!

:spray:

[terryg11]

17. was not a pretty sight

FSU looked good but I cant let go of the crappy calls throughout the whole game!! A couple went against Florida bt not at key moments. just killer
