If they beat Iowa they would be 1-0 in the B1G, so I guess that is a yes.Is SDSU expected to finish above .500 in the B10 this year??

Over the last 5 years Iowa has 3 wins against big 10 teams that finished above 500 in conference. My money goes on SD
Iowa has had the benefit of playing better teams than us the opener. Steel sharpens steel. Maybe that is why they seem more prepared when we play them. Heck one year they had two games to our one before we played them. An extra 60 reps or so is huge so early in the year.
I don't know about that. They play a better team THIS year, but ISU vs UNI is a much bigger test than most iowa openers. UNI always brings a physical game. ISU seems to struggle in September regardless, but I'd like to see them actually have a cakewalk and get the backups some snaps while keeping everyone healthy for once.
UI/SDSU, I feel like it's going to be close for a half. Third quarter, they open it up due to a pick six or blocked punt or scoop and score. By the fourth quarter, the backups are in. 31-10.
They were kicking Iowa all over the field. They would have won by 10 or more if their center hadn't hiked the ball 30 feet over the QB's head when NDSU was driving on them late in the game. I was there. It was embarrassing how badly Iowa was getting outplayed.Convincing? They kicked a fg as time expired I almost wish it was Convincing

South Dakota State is a run first, physical offense. There's nothing finesse about them. They're just more willing to throw over the top than North Dakota State typically is.Totally comes down to turnovers, if EIU is -2 or -3 in TO's, it could happen, South Dakota is going to need some easy scores for them to win, meaning the EIU offense is going to suck, which it could, for an upset to happen.
EIU should have a very good defense this year, and just like most years, they will get turnovers, and that tends to be in difference in the game.
South Dakota is not like that N. Dokata team that just dominated EIU at the point of attack, they are more of a finesse team, hoping for the big play.
Most hok fans get lost inside a WalmartHalf of squawk fans couldn't point at Iowa City on a.map.
Looks like it. Two of Iowa's wins are over Minnesota with the other a win over Ohio State. For reference, ISU has 8 wins in the last five years over Big 12 teams finishing with a Big 12 record above .500.Is this true?

Agree. Would be nice if Iowa had to show a little in a 4th quarter comeback win.I’d rather face them off a win then a loss.
They could win sure. They’re a really good FCS team. Perfect opening game IMO.Petras sucks, sdsu can win.
Fixed for accuracyPetrash sucks, sdsu can win.
Iowa’s defense is one thing but what doesn’t get talked about enough is that Iowa’s offense rarely puts the Iowa defense on a short field. Tory Taylor is a HUGE weapon for Iowa and that Iowa defense isn’t going to give up many long sustained drives against SDSU.
