Iowa 35, Iowa State 7: The Game In Pictures
(BUMPED for awesomeness, obviously. Helpful hint: you can also access all previous entries in FossilHawk's excellent "The Game in Pictures" series through the tag or this link. -- Ross)
Not much to add to what's already been written, other than the fact that that was the most complete destruction of an Iowa State team I've seen in years. My God, it was beautiful.
Credit for the pictures, as per normal, goes to Hawk Central, with one picture coming out of the open threads from Saturday.
Without further ado, then:
2-0. Go Hawks.

i think ferentz was yelling at DJK when he was pointing to his own head like that

Yup
I believe Jewel took his helmet off while coming off the field and KF was kindly reminding him that he shouldn’t do that as he could get flagged.

Yeah, the ISU fanatic next to started screaming when Jewel took off his lid.
“HE TOOK OFF HIS HELMET, HE TOOK OFF HIS HELMET, THROW THE FLAG, THROW THE FLAG.”
He then proceeded to curse the refs when they didn’t THROW THE FLAG.
Dude was a total Cyclone whack job.

Absolutely Iowa’s defensive philosophy… Fly to the ball and gang tackle

Bravisimo. Well done.

Proud to be their coach...... LOL
Anyway we could get a collection of pictures throughout the year made into a real poster? I’d love to hang one in my Hawkeye Football Shrine.

The Iowa defensive front four look like solid muscle while
the Cyclone OL is full of muffin tops.

Good observation
Same goes for our OL. One of the pictures last week had McMillan next to Morse. I couldn’t believe I was looking at an O Lineman. His weight was all muscle, zero fat. Since fat doesn’t really add to strength, you could probably increase the listed weight of our guys 10 to 20 pounds and they’d be more comparable with their strength with other programs OL. The results so far kinda indicate that too.

That's the one thing I've noticed this year
The OL is smaller than last years, yet I see an OL that moves much better, is quicker and lighter on their feet, and generally blocks as well as last — with the potential to gel and become that much stronger as the year progresses.
Now, I don’t know how they’ll do against the big boys of OSU, but so far, the results are very promising.

It's the benefit of the smaller Oline
The question, of course, is whether they will still be able to get a good push against larger Dlines like OSU’s and Wisconsin’s. There is a reason why Olines tend to be 300+ pounds on average.
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
Great Job, as usual
Love the pics and the captions.
I think we should have a caption of the week contest, with the BHGP faithful voting.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with awarding a jinx crack rock.
By the way, the “We know, Tyler, we know” was extraordinarily witty. Clubhouse leader, just my two cents.
Less memorable than Sam Okey's Hawkeye career.

Dejected Fans
Remember the poster that someone made saying “who’s next” with all of the dejected fans in it last year? Let’s bring that back! It was F’n Awesome. That girl in the Nittny Lions Head gear was hillarious
"Sad Fans". I've been lobbying to start it back up.
I want those ISU dorks wearing the red capes, the red face paint and red tights (or were those red bib overalls?) to be prominently featured.
I want it back
It stopped after week 5 or 6 last year but it was really starting to get good
You mean these guys?

"Have you ever had the Hot Pocket Hot Pocket? It’s Hot Pocket inside a Hot Pocket. Tastes just like a Hot Pocket."
we sat across the field from these guys and it was a study in the stages of something??? to watch them through the first half. They started out Gonzo and just became more and more despondent through the game. Very funny stuff. I wish I had a camera.
"Have you ever had the Hot Pocket Hot Pocket? It’s Hot Pocket inside a Hot Pocket. Tastes just like a Hot Pocket."
Didn't they paint their faces red for the game?
I only ask, because they obviously hadn’t for the picture above. Which means, at some point they thought to themselves “I just don’t think we’re conveying our ISU fandom enough. We need to do MORE”
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
One of the ESPN commentators said something about them needing...
sunscreen. I’m thinking that this game was the first time these guys had emerged from their basements in months (watching “Kickass” on repeat all the while) and the bright, Iowa City sun gave them quite a sunburn. As for being dejected, at one point late in the third or fourth quarter the ESPN cameras went back up to this group of caped avengers and caught the big-boned kid sitting on his cape using the latest eye-phone app (or some other lame).

You know what . . .
Good for these guys. I’d be amusedly proud to see Hawkeye fans in a similar getup. (I would not invite them to a party.)
Seriously, it’s not easy to be a fan of a team whose success is defined as 6-5. Showing this kind of passion and commitment (even if it is only for the game against Big Brother) is cool.
Just because there’s a lot of Cyclone fans that have anger issues and inferiority complexes, doesn’t mean we have to be dicks to every Cyclone fan. That would make us the biggest losers of all.

I think they're badass.
I love fans who turn out in full costume in support of their team.
Brunettes not fighter jets
Especially on the road against a rival
Much respect. And from the pics we’ve seen around, it seems like they took it in stride.
God I love Cyclone fans
Angel Toro Jr. I think ISU threw the game! there coaches and AD anyway and here is my reasons why 1) keys to victory blitz and getting Arnaud away from last year… No blitzing (stanzy had all day) and they started running the ball and digging a whole leaving arnaud at 3 and long all day instead of short passes to gain confidence. 2) how many 3 and 1 plays did iowa have and only once did ISU stack the line against it. 3)No coverage on ESPN Sportcenter interesting all top 10 teams got coverage except Iowa interesting? If they want to keep the rivalry by showing Iowa we can be a lame duck victory then its not worth keeping, grow some balls Iowa and play good teams with a tough schedule like Iowa State does every year!

I believe you are referring to the "sad fan" series.
by Stay thirsty, my friends. on Sep 14, 2010 10:17 AM CDT reply actions
Dejected, sad, horrified, mortified, shocked, stunned, crying?
I don’t care what we call it as long as I get to keep enjoying it! :D
Watching the replay of this one online.
On Hampton’s TD run, Morse absolutely destroyed Sims on the lead block. Hope Sims kept the receipt.
Hawkeye fan, born and bred. And when I die, a Hawkeye dead.
