Ferentz's Emphasis on the ISU Game

[Bigman38]

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

 

[Derpycy]

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

Wait Iowa is in CMC’s head to the point where he refers to us the Team Out East and you are not sure he considers it a rivalry?

That would be correct

You have a coach that says Those Guys in Ames and is known for tirades for how much he hates ISU and you wonder if it's a rivalry?

How are you getting along with folks on the Purdue boards this afternoon?

"Is in CMC's head"...this guy has to be a 14 year old.

Both coaches consider it a rivalry. Only some stupid fans (both sides) try to say it isn't.

Agreed. It's just Iowa and Kirk Ferentz that treat it like their Super Bowl and we don't

Purdue doesn’t have a forum devoted to Iowa the way it is here.

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.

Prefer to look at the 15-2 record for OSU in the past 17 years and 13 of the past 14!

And just how did you find out about this one, and then proceed to come to it and add to it?

This has been mentioned on Chris Williams radio show. I didn’t believe it could have been as it has been described but seeing is believing.

You listen to Chris Williams's show?

How do you say it's not a rivalry when you listen to the other team's media people?

I couldn't even tell you who the media person is for Hokdom.

What do you think of Homer and Gabe?

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.

ISU has NFL players?

His radio show called the Sports Fanatics covering Iowa, iSu, Drake and UNI. I can see how you are confused though.

I've honestly never head of that...only read CW's stuff here and an occasional podcast.

Interesting you were intrigued enough to come to a site and argue with other teams' fans.

You forgot to answer--what's your feelings on Homer and Gabe?

Actually considering even their recent history it's kind of amazing they've had a few in the league.

Of course Iowa-Iowa State is a rivalry, but much moreso to those guys in Ames. CMC has stated publicly that he is emulating Iowa’s program, and that beating Iowa is the program’s top goal. To say that game is CMC and Iowa State’s Super Bowl would be the understatement of the century.

He's also said he's emulating other programs such as Boise State but you don't see their fans here.

If you devoted an entire forum on your website to Boise State I guarantee you they would show up.
