Iowa has won 10 of the last 15. Not sure that qualifies as it meaning everything to Iowa but I am sure you will set me straight.
How many times has Iowa State put a players NFL career or college career in jeopardy just to play then in a rivalry game? I’ll hang up and listen.

If there's one thing I've learned from raising 4 children it's that if they don't learn from their punishment the first time, it only makes sense to give them the exact same punishment again and assume it will work the second time around. Common sense stuff.

Can you really call it a rivalry game when Iowa has won 10 of the last 15?

Safe to say it's a rivalry when your coach plays injured players and players that should be suspended in it. I'm not sure CMC considers it a rivalry though

I'm honestly surprised some Iowa fans are even defending this

Why would CMC have a countdown clock to the Iowa game if it isn’t a rivalry game for him?

Is this a softball or what??

When was the last time ISU had an NFL Draftable player? Zing!!!
Hey, there was a large batch of people out there who thought Lazard was that guy... but we got kicked in the nuts on that one, too.

Can you really call it a rivalry game when Hokdom goes out of their way to discuss a football series on the teams' board that they claim not be rivals with?

FIFY.

Busy day for you since I'd assume you're also spreading your belligerence around the Wisky, Minney, and NW boards.

Duke has beaten UNC 11 out of the last 17 games in basketball. I guess that's not a rivalry though.

MI-OSU is something like 15-5 OSU the last 20 years.

They should really do away with that game and not make the entire conference schedule revolve around it.
