Here's another installment of Chico's classic thread series. This week, I headed over to Cyclone Fanatic and read 1270 posts on 85 pages so you don't have to!
These threads are usually way more fun when the opposing fanbase has at least a scintilla of hope, but these poor bastards, they knew they were dead meat before the game started.
Pregame:
This may be the least excited I have seen this board before a game.
Is it bad that I'm just hoping for five or less 3 and outs?
I'm tired of losing by one play/possession to KSU. Shake the monkey on our back today!!!
I actually have a good feeling for the first time in a while. Feel like we're in for some fun for a change.
I'm hoping for a win. Sick of losing to k st by less than 7 pts every year. K st is definitely my least favorite team in the b12.
FIRST QUARTER:
After two first downs on the opening drive:
I have a good feeling. i think their D sucks.
Waters is a white guy...hmmm didn't know that.
I'm tired of these announcers
Idiot
Waters is ridiculously quick.
After the first score
This football season has been like a face plant into a pile of used needles
luv these
I really didn't think it was possible for the defense to get that much worse in just a year.
they were 7th in the league in defense last year
We're gonna score a lot today, but we'll need our D to do something. Anything.
Nope.
anyone else feel like they are watching this on the Kansas State football network, not fox sports? I know they have a better record than us but sheesh..
Can we rent the Ames High fball team to finish the season? No one is pulling their weight on this team.
Well everyone always says the K-State game is our Superbowl.
this one is great.
We might lose to Kansas. I'm not kidding. Their run game is decent and our run defense.....not so much.
Woody should never se the field again. He has to be been (sic) awful on all short yardage situations
This is surprising. Last year, these idiots were worshipping this skinhead dork. There really is a lot of unrest/calling for SLTH Rhoads' head.
Thank God Waters occasionally throws terrible passes.
ha. touche.
Thank goodness Kstate has decided to be stubborn with the pass, they have been running the ball like they were on rails but go away from it.

SECOND QUARTER:
We haven't even seen Daniel Sams yet. That is scary to me
As well it should be.
Kansas State's campus is a pile...
I wonder if LHC Bill Snyder knows what Daniel sams would do to us
For all the terribleness, it's a 10 point game. Unless we get totally out-adusted at half, this is still winnable.
I think we win this game.
Hey Rhoads we are 1-6, our freshman kicker is not going to make a 50 yarder just effing go for it.
That really was a pathetic fg attempt.
HALFTIME IS HERE:
This is probably what I hate most about this year: this game is over and it isn't even halftime. There is no way we score 17 points to even match what they have now, much less hold them from scoring and score again...
Snyder will never lose to us again.
On the bright side, I think we are only 2 years away from winning 5-6 games again. Yipee!!!!
this guy gets it. i feel bad for this cyclone fan.
Rhoads gets outcoached every year against K-State. Snyder is a genius.
THIRD QUARTER:
Yep. KSU could hand off the ball to one of our defenders, and we would promptly kick it out of bounds.
After the ISU guy let the punt go and it rolled for 25 more yards:
WE ARE IOWA STATE.
K-State smells a shutout. I think they'll get it.
Gosh dangit.
I hope they run up the score on us
sorry cyclone bro. we're going to take a knee on the 1 yard line. #class
FOURTH QUARTER:
Not getting tickets this year is the best thing that's every happened to me in my entire life.
Better than having kids, getting married, catching an 11-pound walleye...you name it. With the accomplishments of my life, I'm happiest with the decision to not get season tickets.
After TT's touchdown:
It's a tough year when Broom can't even get the PI done right.
They gave up 10 points quickly in a horrible way. They then out played KSU for the entire 2nd and 3rd quarter while our offense did absolutely nothing. What's with the obsession of blaming the O and D equally when we clearly have a complete lack of offense for the ENTIRE game, not just one or two quarters.
For being "outplayed" Kansas State still managed to outscore the Clones 10-0 during those quarters.
we dont deserve this touchdown
you broke my heart, #roseshow. you broke my heart.
I'm freaking sick of people calling KSU/ISU a rivalry. They ******* dominate us every year since 2007
And you don't lose to rivals by 34 points
Snyder proving he is a better man than Rhoads. Who the F calls a timeout, down 35 with under 2 to play?
Thanks Bill for the knee. Not sure any other coach in the conference would show mercy.
LHC Bill Snyder is class. Great coach.
POSTGAME
Snyder pulling the Frank Martin. Saying how good our crap coach is.
In defense of Rhoads (this is pathetic, btw. Rhoads gets 2 million dollars a year):
What GOOD coach is going to stay here? We hired a fired defensive coordinator from Auburn (Rhoads), he did well here for 4 years and a moronic section of the phase base wants him fired for a bad year. Oh, and we will pay you the least amount of money in the conference. I'm sure lots of quality coaches are lining up for this job.
That's all folks!
