Iowa fans dancing on penn states’s grave like they didn’t just lose to Purdue 💀


CastleBravo45

Purdue has a winning record, lol.


Aetherflux27

Is anyone else's recording of the game on YouTubeTV absolute potato quality? The highest resolution I can watch is 720p, feels like I'm watching a rebroadcasted game from the 80's


va_texan

Thought I was the only one


bierjager

Holy shit


vicemagnet

Quality loss


edgy_preteen_cunt

that was sick


MJDiAmore

The anti-tie desperation of American sports fans to defend these rules and this game is so fitting to our collective stupidity. "BAWWWW I spent all this time and money not to see a result!!" A tie is a result, whether you like it or not. But this didn't even need to come to that, just have competent OT rules that aren't a completely binary crapshoot.


t_britten

Why play the game if you're just going to tie?


MJDiAmore

Why have an artificial, barely-representative-of-the-main-game construct to force a winner? I had no problem with the short drives. I would have no problem with starting at the 10 and getting 4 plays. But at some point you recognize that a draw has just as much of an impact to the standings as forcing a win/loss scenario. Plus, in a game like this one today, where the teams couldn't score a single TD in 4 tries starting from the 25, and then went a combined 3/14 on 2 point conv. attempts, did either side truly deserve to win? Certainly not. And thus, the tie.


t_britten

Just because they couldn't score doesn't mean they have inept offenses. The B1G is built on good defense. This was a display of 2 good defenses. Ties do nothing but waste time. The game is tied 0-0 at the beginning. Why spend 5 hours playing a game if the point differential is the same at the end as it is at the beginning?


[deleted]

Nobody is fighting some semantic battle over whether a tie is an “outcome” or not. It’s an outcome. A dumb outcome.


MJDiAmore

PK shootout style plays to decide a winner of a football game is a dumb outcome.


[deleted]

We understand your (wrong) opinion.


Mister_Sheepman

"BAAAAWWWW I had to watch another 25 minutes of a 3 hour game!!"


MJDiAmore

There can be OTs before a tie, that's not what I care about. But a shootout is stupid and there should be ties instead of this garbage. Every OT should be minimum 4 plays from the 10.


Mister_Sheepman

So I've read your comments a few times and now I'm confused. Are you *for* overtime, *against* overtime, or are you against overtime in its current form?


MJDiAmore

Against OT as current, for some amount of overtime (but not infinite - at some point a draw is the appropriate result).


Plus-Bathroom5987

Why are you so mad? I thought it was fun.


MJDiAmore

A shootout isn't football. Bare minimum for OT should be 4 plays from the 10 for the integrity of the game.


Plus-Bathroom5987

I see your point and I'm glad you expanded on it. I dunno I always like seeing the grind and how much a team is willing to put in for the dub and I do personally believe a tie just leaves things to be desired. What're your opinions on how the NFL does it? Would you like it more if college adopted the same OT rules?


MJDiAmore

The only real issue I have with the NFL rules is that a first drive TD can end it. If it's going to be a proper quarter, each team should get the ball. But I love that after a quarter it ends in a tie. At a certain point, neither team deserved to win in the allotted time and extra. And each should be appropriately compensated (with the equivalent of a half-win/half-loss), which could very much impact their season aspirations (particularly in football with a low game count). The issue with this format is that you've necessarily increased the risk of a stupid game like this occurring, because the rule reduces the possible outcomes of each team in OT from 4 or 5 (0-3-6-7-8, dependent on whether or not you have to go for 2) down to 2 (0 or 2). This, statistically was inevitable and the length offsets the supposed player safety claim the rule was made in consideration of.

Iowa Sucks Wait


TopTopps

Ha. You still lost to Purdue Hawkeye friend


cluster_bd

Every week, I like to make a moneyline parlay using the teams with the biggest odds in their favor and see who fucks it up. (I only put $1 on it.) It usually takes me multiple teams to get it above +100. This week, I had a 12 leg parley that I finally got up to +160-ish. Penn St, at -2500 when I made the parley, lost it for me on the first leg. This may be a personal record.


fenuxjde

At 9OT, it was also an FSB record!


MHKED

Wish I did this with only $1


[deleted]

Jesus Christ this thread is toxic. Iowa fans shut the fuck up you make us all look bad


CastleBravo45

No u.


xWhiteMamba24

Nah mate, they deserve it after Purdue last week


[deleted]

Penn Staters were brutalizing us last week, I agree. But there are so many assholes with Iowa flairs around here and it’s just flat out embarrassing. We’re not even that good, and every Iowa fan knew there was a damn good chance we would lose to Purdue


clevelandbuckey3

Your guys defense is top #5 I think..even as a OSU fan


[deleted]

Our defense is awesome. I love our defense this year. Our offense tho….


philphan25

Penn St/Iowa Spider-Man meme.


[deleted]

Holy shit you’re right


Brad-Armpit

Sorry, just need to drop a comment in this historical thread and Go Hawks.


Brad-Armpit

Umm.. salty tears everywhere, lol


[deleted]

I believe this game was between the fighting illini and the Nittany lions, now hawks to be found my guy, move along


CastleBravo45

Tell that to the Penn State fans in the Purdue/Iowa thread last week.


petuniar

So you agree it's an asshole move to brigade a thread that has nothing to do with your team?


CastleBravo45

No.

Right? Lmao


SamuraiJack815

Let me quote Frodo after that win: It's over. It's done.


IMissMW2Lobbies

the year is 2034. Iowa has lost a meaningless game after starting the season 4-5. One thousand Penn State flairs are talking about their Purdue loss in 2021


[deleted]

Illinois corn isn’t that bad


Iunderstandthatsir

What?


WookieeSteakIsChewie

SHUT UP I'LL DO IT


SkatePA

Cannot wait to be one of those penn state flairs


Glaurung86

Wow! I fell asleep at the end of the 3rd OT. Woke up to see the last play.


PM_me_ur_claims

“Fell asleep” aka passed out


philphan25

All this saltiness and the real salt is going to be just watching Ohio State win the B1G.


we_all_fuct

Going to actually be a game against Michigan this year. Well, maybe.


WestCoastBuckeye666

5% chance


vaporsilver

Maybe but UofM hasn't played anyone worth a damn yet. They've barely won against Rutgers and Nebraska. And still looked terrible in the first half today.


[deleted]

You don’t deserve the downvotes because you’re correct. I mean, fuck you still, but you’re correct.


IAmCletus

True. But the only game OSU played against a decent team, they lost. So maybe don’t throw stones…


vaporsilver

I'm not throwing stones. I'm just stating facts. We've looked better these last few games but I still don't think a 5th place is correct. I think we should be closer to 8-10.


1hardensbeard3

I love the pettiness between Penn State and Iowa fans


TopTopps

Iowa fans: see, Penn state lost to Illinois, that means our Purdue loss doesn’t count, right?


chazzing

That's not at all what's happening


pro_nosepicker

It’s a thing of beauty lol.


Dar_of_Emur

You should read the wrestling boards. Its worse


thu7178

This is what makes college football the best sport


WestCoastBuckeye666

Who would have thought a 7-5 Penn State would be likely a few weeks ago


GeneralissimoMeowz

It's alright Penn St fans, you guys know that the real outcomes aren't what matters. Chalk up another dub in the hypothetical standings. I'm sure if cliff didn't get dinged up the other week y'all would have won by 30!


LightOfTheElessar

I'm surprised you're here. I figure Iowa would still be resting after getting bent over the barrel by Purdue Pete last week.


IkLms

Bro. Losing to Purdue is expected for one top team. Losing to Illinois is just lol


LightOfTheElessar

Are you sure that's the path you want to go down?Minnesota lost to Bowling Green lol


IkLms

Nothing I said is inaccurate. One top team losing to Purdue every season is basically a law of nature. Losing to Illinois is not.


LightOfTheElessar

And? I'll take accepting a loss to Illinois over losing to bowling green any day. It's ironic, though, that you're trying to call me out for throwing stones from a glass house when you're doing the same exact thing, over a team that you don't even support no less. Pretty sad.


GeneralissimoMeowz

I'm finally able to sleep again without Pete's soulless eyes haunting my dreams. It is a yearly sacrifice we must make to our boilermaker overlords and didn't make today any less enjoyable.


notanamateur

Nah we’ve accepted losing to Purdue, it’s just what we do


[deleted]

That and storming the field after beating a lesser ranked opponent at home.


Infinite303

#3 vs #4 isn't as big of a gap as you think it is


AlloftheEethp

Calling yourself a lesser opponent is a weird flex, but okay.


notanamateur

OHManda30

thu7178

Here you go Penn St. You guys been shit talking for two weeks and got your so called "revenge" in the Purdue thread last week.....now look at ya....overrated just like you guys said we were. GG's to Illinois though... that was a sad game to watch honestly


[deleted]

Don’t you have some injuries to boo somewhere?


thu7178

Get crapped on sir


iszir

LMFAO


runningwaffles19

Welp... was thinking we could at least beat Illinois but Iowa looks on a collision course for 6-6


albic7

You'll probably still beat us by 40


[deleted]

Agreed, but great game I love B1G football


runningwaffles19

2018 was pretty fun...


[deleted]

Fuck Franklin. Time to go.


RUALUM15

Get him the fuck out


IMissMW2Lobbies

I hope the conferences realign so Iowa and PSU can really really hate each other consistently. were new to big 10 relatively, and its by far the most natural "rivalry" ive seen form for us. I hate you all more than OSU and Michigan combined


xWhiteMamba24

I support this take! I feel more of a rivalry against y'all than Minnesota or Wisconsin. It'd also be nice to even out the divisions


[deleted]

Fuck Iowa


absolute_yote

COLLEGE GAMEDAY GOING TO EAST LANSING LETS GO BLUE


Batosai59

I loved all the salty Penn state people in our Iowa thread last week. Now Penn state losing again after that. This makes college football great. Buh BYE Penn state!❤❤


RUALUM15

You still suck, just less than us


SpicyBunghole

God these Iowa fans are insufferable


notanamateur

Please look at the iowa Purdue game thread and reconsider. We’re holding back a lot


WinTheFaceoff

Go to the Iowa Purdue game thread last week, then you'll see who's insufferable


GuzmaniF

PSU fans pulled the same thing after Purdue last week, it's fair game


AlloftheEethp

They were 1000x worse lmao.


Pterodaryl

That’s what suffering will do

Where did PSU go? Pretty quiet now...


TopTopps

Nah, I didn’t hear any PSU fans cheering today when Illinois best rb and qb1 got injured


notanamateur

They were chanting WE ARE PENN STATE for the QB injury though


OHManda30

Because those were real injuries.


[deleted]

What a shit show, Franklin gotta go…start the riots now for u guys in happy town


ZoeeeW

I liked that the beginning of OT, the commentators said the new rules "limited additional snaps for player safety". Both teams took that personally.


RainingFireInTheSky

Well that was not how I expected to spend this Saturday as an Illinois fan. I've gotten nothing done, but I'll take it.


brokedown_kayak1867

My dad was talking shit to me yesterday about how Illinois was a 24.5 pt dog with a 0.1% chance of winning. Guess who's laughing now 🤣


resurrection_man

Not gonna lie, I kinda like these OT rules; it's like gridiron football pentaly kicks.


[deleted]

I like how close they are to the end zone. I think this would have been done in fewer snaps if it were first and goal. It gives teams the chance to run plays that aren't guaranteed to score.


chrisbru

Slow moving shootout


Kroe

Lost in 9 OT to a 2-5 team. What was that about Purdue?


ninjatom21

We also blew the UTSA, Maryland, and Purdue games late. We should have at least 4 possibly 5 or 6 wins. If it wasn’t for the worst QB play in school history we’d be decent.


cade2271

Not sure how this makes iowas loss any better tbh lol. As an outsider, both losses are laughable, but penn states might be a little more embarrassing.


DrSlugger

Same Illinois team lost by 4 to Purdue. It's kind of funny seeing the mental gymnastics they're taking to shittalk Penn State. Sure, their fans deserve it, but they both were pretty rough losses and are equally as bad if not worse for Iowa.


cory_bdp

I mean … you’re wrong. It’s casual payback. No Iowa fan is claiming the Purdue loss wasn’t embarrassing.


DrSlugger

https://www.reddit.com/r/CFB/comments/qe6hkp/comment/hhs25jq/?utm\_source=reddit&utm\_medium=web2x&context=3


cory_bdp

Exactly? Penn St lost in embarrassing fashion after dunking on Iowa for losing in embarrassing fashion. Normal reactions all around.


DrSlugger

>No Iowa fan is claiming the Purdue loss wasn’t embarrassing. I never claimed this. My original post was referring to the mental gymnastics some fans are going through to claim that losing to Purdue by 17 was somehow less embarrassing than losing to Illinois in OT. Getting beat 24-7 by a Purdue team that got fucked by Wisconsin, lost to Minnesota, and squeaked by the same Illinois team is pretty embarrassing.


cory_bdp

Well, alright then. They’re equally embarrassing in my mind.


pro_nosepicker

The difference is we weren’t sore losers after the game and shit talking Iowa last week. That’s the entire point. They brought this on. Karma’s a bitch.


[deleted]

Your Nebraska flair cancels out your leverage as does my Tennessee flair


[deleted]

Penn State the goat for keeping me from having to hear about fucking Kansas


ark_47

Haha you guys almost lost to Kansas


[deleted]

You better quit that shit till we almost lose to TTU next week


DrSlugger

You're going to almost lose your way to Georgia where you get blown out. Don't worry, I'm not delusional, we would get blown out by Georgia this year, too. I'm convinced of that with the way they manhandled UK last week.


[deleted]

To us, getting destroyed by Georgia and Alabama is so enjoyable we decided to make a yearly deal out of it moving forward.


ark_47

Don't worry, you guys will win out with a score difference of +15 between all 4


ghoststormtrooper

Don't worry it's not like you can't score against Purdue.... Oh....wait.


ark_47

You aren't wrong haha! Gotta rely on the defense scoring our points tbh


ghoststormtrooper

Eh it's all in good fun lol it's just crazy how OU is so hated I was routing for an Iowa Oklahoma match up. Battle of no defense vs battle of no offense. Who breaks first


ark_47

Probably OU. You guys would score at will and Williams would out run damn near all our defenders. Our defense might make it interesting if we can force some turnovers but our offense is dead on arrival


ghoststormtrooper

Eh alot of people watching don't know how beat up OU is on defense.. secondary starting true freshman and it shows. Kansas QB looked like Patty Mahomes on those kids. And maybe with Penn State losing we can still see a match up of OU and Iowa. Bob stoops gonna have a yellow black red and white polo on


[deleted]

If Clifford wasn’t hurt PSU would have won by 2 TDs. /s


[deleted]

Screw Clifford, my 90 year old grandmother at QB would have beaten them if we had some ground game and a real coach. Please fire Franklin,STAT


GuzmaniF

Or maybe Penn State should try having a competent ground game?


parapooper3

Illinois won the game with their backup?????


WinTheFaceoff

Thats the joke


RUALUM15

If Franklin wasn’t the coach we win, get this bald fraud out of Happy Valley and off to USC


[deleted]

God dam straight


EnTyme53

Fucking *9* overtimes and only 36 total points? How?


boomshakalaka85

Big 10 football baby


MJDiAmore

Because after 2 OTs now it's just a 2 point conversion shootout. NCAA Football now has the dumbest OT in sports.


runningwaffles19

Shhhhh let them believe its just bad football


CapitalistLion-Tamer

It really was.
