Iowa and Iowa State police talk trash on Twitter before rivalry game

Iowa State plays Iowa this weekend. This is a big deal in The Hawkeye State (or The Cylone State; we're not picking sides), so the schools' campus police departments decided to talk a little trash. 

It started with this cheesy knock-knock joke:

So what if Iowa State lost to two quality opponents (No. 20 Kansas State and three-time defending FCS champion North Dakota State), while Iowa beat Northern Iowa and Ball State? A win is a win and the Cyclones don't have any.

Iowa State responded with a truly unassailable argument. Yeah, well we've got more followers than you:

Maybe Iowa students are just smart enough to keep the police at an arm's length.
