Don't know what he said, but he'll always be a douche. It is not schtick. He is a Hayden tavern hok and the very worst of them all.

Man, some of you people need to grow up. Life is too short to hate people you don't even really know.
Hey Miller - So you don't want to play the Cy/Hawk game anymore huh? Here are my thoughts on that. If you are the "bigger and better" football program in the state win that game more than 50% of the time. If you want the national recognition you feel you deserve win that game more than 50% of the time. Schedule a legit team out of conference. Play ANYONE of significance other than the horrid BIG west and win. Dont get absolutely hammered every single bowl game you play because you arent deserving to be there because of a weak A schedule. Only a coward would want to do away with a rivalry with great history in this state simply because it's "embarassing" when you lose. Grow a pair already my goodness! Yeah Iowa State is working to become a respectable program around the country. Unfortunately, for years, we play talent rich Texas and Oklahoma schools. Not too many Rutgers, Illinois, Indianas, Minnesotas, Purdues, Northwesterns and now even Nebraska on our schedule each and every year. Oh, did I mention to grow a pair????!
For the same reason I don't want to play Iowa in a bowl, I'm all in favor of dropping them from our schedule. Although we'd likely win easily, we don't gain anything and it's not interesting game. Let's get a relevant P5 team instead.
If we were to play Iowa in a bowl game we'd most likely win, it wouldn't be an interesting game to anyone outside the state of Iowa and we have nothing to gain from it. What don't you understand about that?
Funny you don't hear Ohio State begging to end the Michigan rivalry. Never once heard a Florida fan asking to end the Tennessee game. I'm pretty sure Alabama wants to play Auburn every single year. Why? Because they are the better program and absolutely DOMINATE those series like a "bigger and better" program should. They compete for recruits they want to absolutely hammer those "inferior" programs every single year.
*Note: Yes, I realize those are conference foes. You get the idea though.

You'll understand once you stop viewing any ISU game as the equivalent of a Super Bowl.
10-9 in the Ferentz era, so technically correct thanks to the nature of odd numbers. Make it a round 20 years and it's 10-10.
Iowa and Iowa State are essentially .500 over the lifetimes of the guys who play in the games and fill the student sections.
Why use age of current players rather than what the current players actual record are?
Why use 20 years , but not the last 10, 15, 25, or 30 years?
Because the series is lopsided. And you know it.

You can pick a time frame, so can I. The numbers conflict either way. Don't act like it's clear cut or like anyone gives two s**ts about which team won in 1933.
No, no they dont. Could literally care less about 25+ years ago. Didn't hear Hawkeye fans wanting to end the rivalry when they won 15 straight back in the 80s-90s. Lose a couple rivalry games and you tuck your tail and run.
Does Iowa have another bye this week? Does it seem to anyone else that they haven't played in over a month? I live in Chicago and even then it's so easy to forget about the Big 10 West, particularly Iowa. They do really well for sucking hind tit. For their sake I hope Kurt coaches another 20 years.
So what time frame do you care about and think is relevant? 5 years? 10? 15?
All those are lopsided in favor of Iowa. I'm gonna guess you want to use a 19 year time frame for some odd reason.
