It's HATEBOWL time, as Iowa State takes on Minnesota in a game that nobody cares about. With that said, it's not unlike your little brothers fighting each other, which is always fun.
Insightful television coverage on the NFL Network. Insightful commentary on this giant pile of FAIL after the jump. Join us in our schadenfreude.

Lot of wind there
affecting the announcer mics? Or is the sound just screwed on direct tv?

I notice it too.
I think it is wind. For some reason, they are playing this game at SunDevil Stadium instead of the friendly (alien, sanitized, bland) confines of UofPhoenix GlendaleDome.

By "smart"...

Wait, did he just say that Iowa State was out playing Minnesota?
I’ve only been watching for about 30 mins, but I find that hard to believe.
Maybe he didn't mean "out-playing," but rather

What a shitty-looking UFC card.

No fucking clue.
Who knows how Texas Tech is going to react to all this shit? They may completely disintegrate, or they could all rally around it and be motivated as hell.
Although since option A (disintegration) didn’t exist until the Leach/Texas Tech situation went full retard this week, I guess their odds of victory did improve.
They may have improved,
but I still think Tech wins by no less than 2 TDs. Before the Leach mess, I assumed Tech would win by 20+

Short story long: OU player fielding punt....
……Stanford players CREAMS him, lays into him to the tune of wondering if it’s even unnecessary roughness in addition to the obvious catch-interference penalty.
Instead, a BOGUS call of being “blocked into” the returner is called, and since the returner fumbled the punt whilst being un-loaded upon, it was Stanford ball at the OU 35.

Weber should come with the warning that's on meds
To note that if he’s QBing, you shouldn’t allow him to touch a ball under any circumstances because it could be hazardous.

Minnesota hasn't scored an offensive TD since Nov. 7
Oh, LOLphers…
Big junkies come from little junkies.
Nov 7th THIS year?
See, I was thinking Nov 7, 2008. So, really, they’re not as bad as I initially thought.

They've added a 'no ignoring' clause to the vows.
Once you take them and put that ring on, there’s no more ignoring, my friend.
Still, the wife is a huge Hawk fan, goes to all the games, knows the difference between Norm and Phil Parker, so she’s a keeper.

I don't think anyone can argue with that logic
It's not that I'm lazy, Bob, it's that I just don't care
I wondered about that, too. They're not exactly a juggernaut on offense.
Still, I’m not a fan of that until under 10 min left in the 4th qtr. Knowing ISU, they’ll give Minny a TO soon enough and put the Gophs back in business soon enough.

I can't decide who's more likely to blow this game....
….since both teams have made such a habit of blowing games over the years. Will it be ISU shanking a FG or PAT? Or Minny chucking a pick-six with 30 seconds left and the lead?

It never gets to be easy

Since I don't have NFL Network my brain isn't completely scrambled at this point...
JC had two games in 2007 with similar completion %. 23 of 32 against Syracuse with 4 TDs. And a 17-25 game against Illinois with no turnovers. He didn’t turn the ball over much, I’ll give him that. Of course, it’s hard to intercept two-hoppers.
My favorite JC line is 5-15 for 53 yards against Michigan State. In overtime. In a win. And 23 of the yards were in overtime. Ah, memories.
He had great stat lines in horrible losses....
….yet horrible stat lines in some wins.
That was JC in a nutshell. And it drove me crazy, since you could never convince people that, despite his sometimes impressive stat lines, that he simply wasn’t very good.

If ISU kicks a field goal here, 4 points will be pretty much insurmountable.

In Gopher years, multiply any lead by 7.
So, ISU has a 7 pt lead right now. Another PAT, and it’s 14!

It could take another six weeks for Minny to go 98 yards and score again.
They can’t run, they can’t pass. Their best bet is to quick-kick and wait for another Arnaud turnover.

Honestly, from a schadenfreude standpoint this is the best result.
ISU fans were so happy to be in any bowl, they wouldn’t have been angsting too much if they had lost.
But this just gave the Gophers more reasons to bitch about Brewster, Weber, etc.
