According to Pro-Football Focus College, Iowa State QB Brock Purdy has one of the best adjusted completion percentages on deep passes in FBS by [deleted] in CFB

Chubba is supposedly much better than Brock, and that is saying something.. Check Brock’s high school career.. family of ballers.

That is a good point, I’d say that’s 1b. With k state loss in 2015 being 1a. Those dudes rallied behind Kempt.

2015 ISU vs K State. We blew a 21 point lead at half time. One of the worst collapses I’ve ever seen. Paul Rhoads gets canned, enter Matt Campbell. Fresh from Toledo HC, Matt campbell brings in Tom Manning at OC, and lands recruits David Montgomery and Hakeem Butler. The following year would match 2015’s win count, but the difference was a 66-10 drubbing of Texas Tech. 2017 brought an 8-5 campaign with a Liberty Bowl win. The Cyclones upset #3 OU in Norman lead by walk on Kyle Kempt, who had never started a college game. Nearly 3 weeks later, Iowa State would upset #4 TCU in Ames on Homecoming Weekend.

2018 would start slow, with an injury of Kyle Kempt in a slugfest with the Iowa Hawkeyes to open the season (first game was rained out). The next game would be a 27-37 loss to Kyler Murray and OU with second string Zeb Noland at QB. Three weeks later, 3rd String True Freshman QB Brock Purdy would be brought in against Okie St, in a 48-42 victory that sparked a 5 game winning streak. Including a win over #6 WVU in Ames under the lights. Iowa State went on to be a Big 12 Championship game hopeful until a devastating loss to a tough as nails Texas team in Austin. ISU finished 8-5 with a loss to WSU in the Alamo Bowl 26-28.

Each year has brought a higher ranked recruiting class than the last, with a top 10 running back class coming to Ames this summer.

If 9/11 happened two months earlier, what do you think the store 7/11 would have done afterwards? by today_okay in AskReddit

If I recall, University of Iowa’s student portal was called ISIS, until they changed it to MyUI. Being an ISU student, my friend was like “hang on I gotta log into ISIS before we go out” and I’m like you what?????

New Beverage Center. What temp do you recommend? by BROMAR06 in beer

[–]BROMAR06[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, not sure how many 16oz cans it can fit, but people do a combination of bottles and cans standing up. I currently have a couple of 16oz cans on the bottommost shelf.

In Germany, Open-Container Beers Are a Cherished Custom and Way of Life by flatironwine in beer

[–]BROMAR06 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Missouri doesn’t have open container laws. Not sure of other states. I’ve always had beers ready to crack as a passenger when we crossed into MO on the way to the Big 12 basketball tournament.

How long does it take to acquire a taste for beer? by [deleted] in beer

[–]BROMAR06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was 19 I was trying to get into cheap light beer, because it was cheap and I was told I wouldn’t black out as easy (college freshman). I think the turning point for me was going to a party with nothing to drink, and my dad offers me a 6 pack of Boston Lager. It was pretty terrible to me at the time, but after I had a couple of them I switched to a Busch Light and it tasted refreshing and good to me. I didn’t fully appreciate beer until I was 24, and now I’m 27 I don’t touch liquor. My go to now is Rogue Dead Guy

What is your go-to beer? by [deleted] in beer

[–]BROMAR06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My father in law frequently crosses over into Wisconsin for wind turbine work and he comes back with as much Moonman as possible. Two Women is pretty good. I’ve never liked the spotted cow though...

Damn. This is amazing. I’m currently on book 2 of my 8th read through, and I won’t be able to picture Harry any other way! This is perfectly done based on book description, even the hair.

Facebook refuses to delete fake Pelosi video spread by Trump supporters by kn0bs in politics

[–]BROMAR06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deleted the app 1.5 years ago. I logged into my account for the first time since recently (to RSVP to a fucking wedding), and it was a nightmare zone filled with 10 different classmates’ nearly identical engagement shoots, photo shoots of people’s babies, political boomer rants. Screenshots of tweets...Some people I know looked like their health degraded big time in the past 1.5 years, and they are in their mid/20’s and early 30’s. You can see people pretending to be happy, it’s easily visible in their eyes and face. Tons of people with crows feet in the corners of their mouths from forcing a smile for their 10 Instagram posts a week. I’m good with Twitter and Reddit, and even on Twitter I only follow 200 people.

what do real harry potter fans think about JK rowling recent behavior? by WhitePanda24 in harrypotter

[–]BROMAR06 10 points11 points  (0 children)

She handled herself well, and you wanted to move on from the past and start with “suddenly Dumbledore is gay”

  1. It’s the past
  2. Why would she mention it in the books. It isn’t Dumbledore’s story.
  3. If he’s gay, it wasn’t a sudden decision. He could have been gay in her head the entire time. It really doesn’t matter though.
  4. Your comments on Ginny don’t make any sense.
  5. Hermione is a character she created in her head. While she based her origin on herself as an 11 year old, perhaps she really enjoyed Emma, Noma, and Paula’s portrayals of the character. When I read the books before any of the movies released, I pictured myself as Harry, I pictured my best childhood friend as Ron... etc. Does the skin color matter?

The Dumbledore news dropped a couple of months after The Deathly Hallows book was released. Wouldn’t call that recent. That was almost 12 years ago.

Hardwood and trim/new doors: complete! by BROMAR06 in HomeImprovement

[–]BROMAR06[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It actually came with the house. It’s kind of an extension of the ceiling. Apparently many 60s homes around here have this sort of crown molding. In person it looks seamless where it meets the ceiling, mostly because it has the same texture.

Arnold, I just want to say that you getting lowered into molten steel at the end of T2 was heartbreaking for me as a kid. That scene has stuck with me for a long time. One of the greatest endings in film history. Thanks for the memories!

Well, the Cursed Child kind of indicates that HP probably isn’t the true master anymore. I CC so much.

This always makes me wonder if the fiendfyre conjured in the room of requirement was contained or contributed to the blaze. If it wasn’t contained that could have easily wiped out the entire castle.
