Man, I left work thinking Iowa State had a good year. GG and all... They were down at that time, 3 minutes or so left, but I wasn't angry it is what it is right.. ? I missed the ending but got home to this news. What a finish! Made me so happy to see! Great season ISU, well deserved. 🎉🎉🎉

[@wonshiin]

Who says these games don't matter? I hate Miami, but they played their butts off. Both teams played to win. EXCELLENT game on both sides.

[@andyszwejda3101]

This was one amazing close game, neck and neck, and these are the kind of games that make college Football what it is today.

“Defense Optional” was the best comment I heard during the first half.

@alphashotshe8791 I dunno. It's just whenever I see them play they are wearing black

[@2sexyfomyshirt]

State has had a few alternative away jerseys this year, when they're home they typically play in red and gold

[@Hiou077]

@@Cucumber365it’s a weird thing where we’ve tended to win more with the black jerseys in the past, so we wear them out of superstition. If you noticed, ISU’s helmets had an alternate logo on them, which we’ve been wearing, again, out of superstition.

So Ward gets paid, quite well, to play and try to win and he opts out during the bowl game???? Dang, where can I get that job where I get paid and decide during the most important part of the job to not do it??!! This entitlement is ridiculous.

[@jasonbridges312]

Yes, even with Miami’s qb and WRs sitting out and a lot of younger guys playing all in the 2nd half on both sides of the ball it was still a fun game to watch and be at. Had a lot of fun with lowa st fans today

[@RobbieStacks90]

I knew Iowa St would win this game. They're a very well-coached team with a lot of heart. They didn't show up against Arizona State, but I have a feeling the Big XII had a lot to do with that because they wanted to send their best team to the CFP. Miami is full of NIL mercenaries who are looking out for themselves. They couldn't care less about winning a bowl game.

[@pinchevulpes]

They did show up. ASU brought the belt against them. Did you even watch the game?

[@pinchevulpes]

You ought to make your own blog channel you got so many bad takes you’ll be popular in no time!

@@pinchevulpesThey win against a terrible miami defense and think they knew this would happen. Then they insult the team they beat like it was a good win. Wash, rinse, repeat. Iowa State is a horrible football team and it will stay that way.

[@wildmercuryfilms]

My Dude, When “BOWL GAMES” were invented, THE ROSE BOWL was The Only Bowl, and IT WAS AN EXHIBITION GAME to have “The Best” Western Team play “The Best” Eastern Team. It wasn’t MEANT to COUNT for anything. IE: The National Champion was CROWNED WEEKS BEFORE THE ROSE BOWL WAS PLAYED. As the years went on, The Orange Bowl and Cotton Bowl and Sugar Bowl and Peach Bowl joined The Rose Bowl, but STILL: They were Viewed as Exhibition Games, and The National Champion was CROWNED WEEKS BEFORE THE BOWL GAMES WERE PLAYED, all the way into the mid-1960’s, when The AP switched to Vote After The Bowl Games. Then, the 1970’s, The Coach’s Poll also Switched to AFTER THE BOWL GAME to Crown Their Champion. With The Advent of The CFP, the Bowl Games (other than the CFP) are going back to Ceremonial Celebration-Exhibition Status. THAT’S GREAT! Therefore, this QB should not RISK INJURY for a meaningless Exhibition Game.

[@885Blackjack]

Not sure how you reverse the QB sneak touchdown with exactly ZERO camera views of Rocco Becht being down, but ISU still won, despite missing 5 starters. Miami has nothing to crybaby about. The best player in ISU history decided to sit the game out at the very last second, Higgins. Darrian Porter also opted out, as well as Malik Verdon. DE Tyler Onyedum transferred a week before the game, and ISU has a 3 man front. Iowa State had twice the players missing as compared to Miami. Don't even lie to yourself. Iowa State is flat out better than Miami football, and has been for 5+ years already.

[@RobbieStacks90]

Cam Ward quit on his team. Point blank. It doesn't matter that it was a "business decision". He quit. Why even play in the bowl game if you're planning on quitting? My theory is that he already got outplayed by Kyle McCord a few weeks ago and saw that Rocco Becht was outplaying him, so he wanted to save face before NFL scouts began to question how good he really is. Would Kenny Dorsey ever have quit on the Canes?

[@trellfrmstlgaming1998]

I said the same thing bro .. he is a game manager not a game changer he knew it would be a shootout 😂👎🏽
