Thoughts From the Bench Press: Iowa State

we always seem to get out coached, but normally can out talent teams.
The one thing I don’t like that Dawson does sometimes is it seems he will match the style of the other offense. If Iowa State tried to be methodical and slow the game down I hope we get more aggressive on offense and impose our will that way

Yo J it’s the last one of the year playa…Way to leave it all on the field my guy. 😂
jack off please GIF


Hopefully Cam at the end of this game does the same thing

No pause

Appreciate you brother!
 
Oh so now the guy talking about giving Cam truth serum so he will agree with his pussified take is now giving me psycho analysis

Bro let me cut the rope you’ve been hanging yourself with this entire thread

Keep editing your **** I’ll be here when you’re done flailing
Did I insult you somewhere on this thread? If so, I missed it, so please point it out and I'll gladly apologize. Is this schtick? Cuz you don't like the word meaningless?

There's no psycho analysis. You don't find my humor funny, say it. I can live with that. You don't agree with me, also fine. I can live with that too. Suicide is a pretty lousy thing to inject into a thread like this. If you've ever been effected by it, you'd probably tone it down a notch rather than add it in some attempt to win the internet. Yes, I get that you were being allegorical rather than literal and I realize that I just gave you fuel to call me butthurt - again. I'm the gift that keeps on giving today.

Merry Christmas @JHallCanes

It’s been a long month to be a Canes fan. Up 21-0 against Syracuse and life was good…

And then…

View attachment 315362

We’ve spent the last month *****ing and moaning and saying the same things over and over and over again

It’s not wrong

But we are parking that to the side because it’s time to watch Cam Ward and this offense one last time

Before we get in to Iowa State let’s look back at some of the highlights from 2024 because there were a lot of them:

1. Florida

It was right about here when the entire fanbase held their breath

View attachment 315364

and right about here when all the lies became possible

View attachment 315365

2. Virginia Tech

View attachment 315366


3. Cal

About 2 AM when somehow he got this ball to Arroyo

View attachment 315369

The 2024 season was probably the biggest roller coaster of emotions I can recall

Every week we wanted to make life difficult but in the end we still had a shot to make the ACCCG and the Playoffs but alas…

“This game is meaningless”

I’ve read this from our so-called fans over and over again

There’s nothing “meaningless” about this game

1-11 in our last 12 bowl games

Left out of the playoff because we are not a top tier program in a conference that gets no respect

EVERY game is important especially when we go out of conference

So for all the people saying those words

View attachment 315370

So let’s ******* go

One more opponent on our schedule and it’s not Penn St, Notre Dame, OSU etc

It’s…Iowa State

View attachment 315371

View attachment 315372

Iowa State nestles itself in the metropolitan area of Ames, IA

The university acceptance rate is… 92%

92. ****. Percent.

The only thing you can really say about Iowa that’s cool is at least Kevin Costner got to have a catch with his dad

View attachment 315374

As far as the team goes, we know they have a good coach in Matt Campbell. He’s 10x the coach ours is so that’s a problem. They’ve got a solid QB and WR but it’s a bowl game and who knows who’s playing and who isn’t

So let’s try and guess who will be the difference in this one:

1. Cam

Miami Fans: “you changed my life”

Cam: “I’m literally just Cam Ward”

The single most important player I’ve personally ever seen here. Not only changed the game with his talent, but changed the offense with his leadership. He deserved a legit shot at the playoffs and the Heisman. I got to see Tiger Woods in his prime. Michael Jordan. Jenna Jameson. Now Cam.

2. Martinez. Thankfully we got past the point where our fans claimed he had no vision. Dude was RB1 by a country mile. Not sure what his plan is for next year but I would guess the pros and he’s gonna be tough to replace. Iowa is used to having its corn plowed by John Deere, now it’s Damien’s turn (no pause)

3. Dawson. He doesn’t get enough credit IMO. He took the worst offense in our history in 2022 and made it legit in 2023 despite the same cast of characters. In 2024 we gave him weapons and he orchestrated history. Steven Spielberg. Francis Ford Coppola. Alfred Hitchcock. Axel Braun. Great directors know what to do with great talent. He will be running auditions for 2025 and likely angling for a nice head coaching job himself

Beyond that…**** if I know

Verdict: Miami is the most one dimensional team in the entire country. Thankfully that one dimension is the best in the nation. Unfortunately the other dimension is one of the worst

Actual visual representation of our offense/defense:

View attachment 315378

Matt Campbell has gotta be hornier to face Guidry than an Iowa farm hand looking at a sheep with a bum leg

I expect our offense to be tuff and fizical and grind the game out squeaking by

Pretty good summary of everything. I expect Cam to go out Iike he wants and at least throw a couple TD's setting himself up to be the no. 1 pick in draft. This game won't affect that but a Miami win and a chance to get 11 wins is best we have done since 2003 season. So i am hyped for this game. Go canes! Onward and upward for the canes!

That Trophy with the working, functional toaster is the greatest prize in the entire sport. I want it.

It'll be the top trophy in all the land because we have it.
