Question - FB divisions. Do you get scored by your place in the division, or amongst the entire conference? Would make a big diff to Iowa or nebby probably.. 2 or 3 vs 5 or 7 ish

With this year's basketball teams we may not look too hot. BUT, some other sports did very well.

They'll spin it like one of their past examples:
1) Cherry picking: One of the only schools to send their football team to a bowl game, women's basketball to the tourney, baseball team to the regionals, and wrestling team to the championship meets.
2) Distraction: Talk about how great the finances are for the athletics department/school.
3) Blind optimism/false equivalencies: Talk about the new recruits and people coming back to teams that beat a leader in that sport or almost beat a leader in that sport and claim they're not that far off.

Don't forget moral superiority for waving at sick kids.

I'm surprised Iowa is that high. With Gutless Gary leading the athletic department there's not much hope for any sports besides football.

Good info. You probably could start a separate thread for discussion on this.

4) Comparison: They'll remind everyone they don't offer that many football scholarships.
