Texas Tech beat Houston in the non conference and didn't even play Maryland

He was thinking West Virginia who had 500 yards of offense on that great big 10 defense, but turned the ball over 3 times because doege is pretty bad

I admit Iowa State would lose to Penn State, Purdue, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. They would also most likely lose to Nebraska. At best ISU would be 5-4 in the Big Ten. All of those teams are better than Texas Tech and West Virginia.
You just said a Big Ten West team that won one conference game is better than two bowl eligible teams. Sit this one out and let the adults talk

I bet that Nebraska beat a good team though, right?

Again, do they get a participation award for that?
No, you get the acknowledgment that you had the most wins of each and every team in your conference.

Oddly enough, Uofi has a participation ribbon for an event they didn't even participate in though.

Yeah it's not hard to admit. You can't control it but obviously as rivals we're going to be jealous of it and mock it at the same time. You'd all do the same if we didn't have to play anyone

They all still circle jerk and pretend the big 12 is still defense optional and bad.

Little brother is 21-3 against big brother since 2015 in football, basketball, wrestling and women’s Bball? Yikes! You sound like Pollard.

Why are you always here? If you don’t care about Iowa State, why would you post here during Iowa games?

If we played their schedule though we sure as hell would be. We would likely run the table with that joke of a schedule.
No, ISU would not run the table with Iowa's schedule. For starters, ISU lost to Iowa this year. Plus, Wisconsin, Purdue, Minnesota and Penn State are all better than West Virginia and Texas Tech. IMO, ISU would still have been a 7-5ish team in the B1G West this year. I dislike Iowa as much as the next guy, but trying to pretend that ISU would smoke their schedule is simply not true.
