Not a new phenomenon by any stretch. Ask any PSU fan who can remember when they lost their #1 ranking to Nebraska because closer than expected win over Indiana late in the season caused them to slide.

I had this reverse mirror standard/HD crap for the IA/ISU game. I live in Michigan, so the tOSU/Miami game was the ABC game, while OKLA/FSU game was on ESPN. IA/ISU was the ESPN2 game and as the game was approaching I was on the phone w/ my brother who mentioned the Hawks coming out onto the...

ATL- 27 NO- 24 OT NFL, week 3 not arguing with your pick here though KC is the only remaining unbeaten team

I'm with the posters that normally will cheer against ISU against any opponent. But right now, Texas, Nebraska and Okie are teams in their conference that are all rated ahead of Iowa and any of them undefeated at the end of the year would almost certainly get a bid ahead of an undefeated Iowa...

but now Hawk fans probably need to cheer for the Cyclones the rest of the season. If we want to see our dreams of a shot at the NC game realized, this will be as good a shot as we are likely to see. If at the end of the year we are competing with other teams for a spot as the #2 team the extra...

College games kick off tonite and we have a couple of B10 games along w/ the Clones playing. If you want a full listing of all the games that will be on tv, check out this site tv listings I have found it accurate in the past.

I'm going to throw my proposal up one more time in the hope that someone will comment on it; it got buried in a flurry of quick responses earlier in the thread. the post is long, and on the surface the scheme is slightly complicated, but if you take a little time to digest, I think it works...

this is the proposal I came up with and posed in the other thread. I like the floating division arrangement... I could definitely live with those teams- a number of solid programs and several natural geographic rivals for Iowa. For the people talking about 2 X 8 team divisions, the problem...

I could definitely live with those teams- a number of solid programs and several natural geographic rivals for Iowa. For the people talking about 2 X 8 team divisions, the problem with that is you would be locked into playing the other seven in your division every year, then if you played 9...

Those Boise thoughts are interesting, could very well happen that way. A couple of things could possibly go Iowa's way if it came down to us vs them. 1) 100+ yrs of history on our side ( although this may come back to hurt Iowa too, as there are certainly voters out there who are trying to...

Actually Ghost, it's not that uncommon.... UI COM, class of '97 here. we had at least 20 people in the class of around 170 who had pursued a career other than medicine we had a former banker, insurance agent, lawyer (how he got in I don't know) and others I think it's true that med school...

just out of curiosity.... that 67 out of 77 stat does sound good, but does anyone know what kind of numbers other schools have? say a comparison to Wisconsin, Nebraska and other teams that we recruit against and are at a similar program level

Duff, your numbers are correct, but you make a potentially incorrect assumption--that the cable carriers of New Jersey, much less the NY metro area will be willing to PAY that. Remember the 1st year of the BTN-- many of the local cable companies did not pick it up because they were not willing...

tiggerhawk, you have 2 great posts here. I agree that the research collaboration that Pitt and Rutgers bring to the CIC are 2 of their strongest draws. I've been reading a couple of blogs that talk about B10 expansion, wonder if you've seen them. They are quite interesting FRANK THE TANK’S...

this is an interesting topic...it came up on PTI today w/ Dan LeBetard filling in for Kornheiser, Wilbon asked him the question--what does all this trouble on the team mean for Oregon. LeBetard's answer was probably as honest as you're going to hear--it 'probably' means they're going to be...

this should be a recruiting bullet AGAINST Florida. their stud is so screwed up that they need to completely retool his mechanics at the 11th hour to try to get him drafted? they must not have a QB coach or something.

I wonder if they would make the mother of all plays to pry FSU and Miami away from the ACC. They would also probably be fine with an Oklahoma/ OKIE state combo if Oklahoma didn't go to the B10.

Interesting take: couple of things I would like you to expand on or defend: you state "Notre Dame is not an option" how can you know this for certain? I agree they are more likely to stay independent for football, but you are completely ready to write them off you put TCU in the PAC 12? -if...

this just is another illustration that Iowa is really fortunate to be one of the "have's" in the collegiate sports universe. being part of the B10 and having a successful football program that is a virtual cash cow can smooth over a lot of bumps in the road

big goal line stand, now if the Colts can get points b4 halftime it will be a BIG blow
