ROLFMAO if you think playing that crap school in December will have any benefits when 2019 rolls around.

There is apparently an out clause if we do make the game. So basically we are out nothing if we make the Championship.
I am befuddled that anyone can see this as anything more than making sure we regain a game we will win to replace the game we lost that would have been a win. That's it. If we need it, it's there. If we are in the Championship-- forget them.
Obviously, no one wanted ISU to be backed into this situation, but once we knew we needed to find an opponent for 12/1, this is EXACTLY the sort of team I wanted ISU to play -- a poor FCS team. Getting freshmen and other second-stringers involved will keep all of them more engaged in practices during the LONG month of November (at a point in the season when freshmen are used to being all done with football practice). Should help build team chemistry and morale. Give us a win - increased chances of a bowl if we need it -- hell, what if we are sitting at 9-2 - who wouldn't want a chance to get that 10th regular season win!
Great deal!

Ok. Unusual but it's already been an unusual season so why not? I'm all for the younger guys getting actual game reps, and if this ends up being the game that gets them to six wins and the extra bowl practices then so much the better.
If this were Iowa you would be stating it was a genius move.
Hopefully! Don't get me wrong. I'm still going to the game. My family just might be a little pissy with me lol
I honestly don't get the backlash from some people. Would you want to play a FBS school on Dec 1st if were sitting at 5-6 and needing a win for bowl eligibility?
Who the hell cares if its Incarnate Word. Complaining about wanting a 12th game and complaining about waivers being denies AND THEN complaining about getting a 12th game with an FCS school... holy hell people.

Great to have a game, just wish it was someone we had heard of, like North Texas. They are in the same league I think. Didn't Iowa play North Texas a couple years ago?
Good game to play the reserves and rest up for the bowl game. Need to go out and get the other 5 first.

I would not love this if it was a regular scheduling practice, but in terms of salvaging a guaranteed win after the SDSU debacle, I am happy with it.
Wow. Good question. There are lots of issues to be worked out. I hope they keep it with the K-State game because some families may have already made plans, plus we are more likely to have a great crowd for that game.
We need to get these guys on our schedule in the future too. Not sure how far out we have the FCS opponents scheduled but this needs to happen
For the people ******** about their $7 cyclones.tv thing....seriously it’s 7 dollars. Man up and move on.
