Gotta score, boys

What a waste of a good rushing effort.

When ISU had good offensive rhythm, points weren't scored. Score TDs instead of trying Field Goals, and the game may- may- have been out of reach.

The title of Most Overhyped Preseason Unit now officially belongs to the Iowa State Offense.

The last 5 possessions in Iowa City:

6 plays/21 yards/punt
5 plays/20 yards/punt
5 plays/18 yards/punt
4 plays/9 yards/downs
3 plays/13 yards/end of game

Way to finish. The tight helmet looks good on everyone.

This game is emblematic of the SUI/ISU series. ISU is feisty and can go toe to toe with SUI, and will occasionally embarrass the team from out east. But at the end of the day, when you have double the fans, double the press coverage, and triple the money, you usually win.

Fortunately, Tate is a Senior, and no longer our problem.

At least ISU covered.
