I asked a few preliminary questions about your team, on this board, the week prior to the Arkansas game. All I heard was, "woe is us, we have no solid QB," or "we can run, but we sure can't pass more than five yards." You almost had me fooled until I watched the game. I saw a big QB who could run through and around players and throw several accurate 20-30 yard passes. This poor-boying of your QB doesn't hold water. Nice try, though. Here's to a good game in Orlando. When you come to the game make sure you don't forget your teeth, and they WILL require shoes to board the flying machine. I can guarantee you that we Hawks will have our "goin' to town" bib overalls on, and we will leave the tractors at home. We don't collect all those Department of Agriculture checks NOT to fly to the game. Hey... don't let a few bad IA apples spoil your appetite for Hawk fans. The inability to ban a person from the internet is a sad side-effect of my support of individual rights. Democracies sure make it hard to shut up the idiots.
Don't be fooled, our QB played like a man possessed, and if you listened to the announcers during the game - everyone was in disbelief that he played that well... if he plays like that against Iowa, I think you guys may be in trouble. But if he plays like he did in some 'other' games this season, it should be close.
Okay, here's to hoping he starts sucking again by Jan 1. Huzzah!!!:wink: Seriously, he did look good. Yes, I did notice the reaction by the announcers and the surprise was even more so on this board.
Yea, he has never really been a great QB over his years at LSU, but this year, I am thankful to have him because he rescued us in a couple of game. Hopefully next year our young QB will be able to step up and learn what it is the be a leader... if so watchout out Pasadena. Maybe if you guys can keep a RB healthy and Tate matures you can meet us their again in '05, and try to avenge the L in the Cap One *snicker*
If we can reload our D-line next year and keep a RB healthy, then it's a date in Pasadena, good lookn'. I am concerned that when the IA fans look up at the scoreboard and see the total Hawkeye domination of LSU, they will assume the Rapture has occurred and they are in Hawkeye Heaven. We might have problems gretting fans to Pasadena if 35,000 of then are still in Orlando in 2006 awaiting further instruction from God (aka: the great Herky up in Heaven).:dis:
I just got off the phone with Nick Saban, and we have decided today to offer Ferentz the following Shyrone Carrey and Justin Vincent as well as JaMarcus Russell or Marcus Randall for Drew Tate. The only way Russell is in the deal is if the state of Iowa takes recruit Ryan Perriloux and does some old fashion corn field brainwashing and telling him to go to LSU. Deal ?
Wow...a real life heckler from Iowa... I remember my sister playing in a fastpitch softball tournament in Marion, Illinois when I was 12 or 13...They played against a team from Iowa...My sis' team made up all kinds of cheers and chants to kind of lift their spirits during games... The Iowa girls, no doubt drawing on their inegenuity and bottomless intellects, made one up of their own, too, sensing the mental edge and unity that my sister's team gained through it...As they absorbed a 10-run rule beatdown by the girls from Louisiana, they quickly tried to combat the attempt at team spirit... "We're from Iowa, and we grow corn...If you like that, then blow your horn." True genuis I've never seen put on display again before this day...Welcome yourself to the pantheon of excellence in internet discourse. A true philosopher king, you are.
Marcus Randall is quite possibly the most inconsistent QB in football. When he is good he is great, when he is bad he is terrible. You just happened to catch him on one of his good days. I also notice that he plays well coming off the bench. I can't explain it. It wasn't just a TF.com conspiracy against Iowa fans to make yall think we didnt have an arm.
Unfortunately, Kirk Ferentz has ceased taking my phone calls, so I am unable to guarantee the switch. My gut feeling, though, is that KF will insist on Tate staying at Iowa. We love Kf, but he can be stubborn as mule when it comes to trading our 1st team B10 QB's. Also, we do do things out in the middle of cornfields, but it's not brainwashing, it's called procreation.:thumb: So no, I will not take your recruit into the cornfield. My sister might, though.
TigerEducated (obviously an oxymoron, emphasis on the moron),:hihi: I'm assuming you are in your 60's if you heard girls from Iowa chant, "We're from Iowa, and we grow corn...If you like that, then blow your horn." As a student of IA women's softball herstory, I know for a fact that that chant would of been the high water mark for chanting. Since the 1970's our girls have settled on expletives and nudity to unnerve the opposition. Louisiana teenage girls are too embarrassed to use the nudity technique, not because of modesty, but because of sagging breasts due to their three children. Oh poop, I've got to get ready for a Christmas party, so I'm out. If I don't rap with ya again before the game, I wish you good luck.
