All Iowa Football Team---Post Bowl Edition

[CyTwins]

When did he say it? Link

"Ferentz said the two highlights of Iowa’s season last year were the wins over Iowa State and Nebraska."

Jokes made at Huskers' expense at I-Club event featuring Hawkeye coaches

Iowa play-by-play announcer Gary Dolphin got the party started with jabs at Nebraska almost immediately.

That was his exact quote from 2017 when they beat Ohio State

 

[Legend Hawk]

We won 5 of our last 9 vs an absolute meat grinder of a schedule. One of those losses we played pretty well in too

Iowa went 10-3 vs a tougher schedule than ISU. I mean that is great that you played a decent schedule, but patting yourself on the back for playing pretty well in a loss is kind of McCarney esque talking about winning the second half.

So he never said the words “This is our Super Bowl”

That's just not true

Correct. He just said beating Iowa State was bigger than beating Ohio State

Iowa State had the 5th toughest schedule in the country last year. Iowa's was 30th

 

[Legend Hawk]

That's just not true

I wish Iowa played easy conference schedules like the Big12 does. Nine Big10 teams played a tougher conference schedule than the toughest Big12 schedule.

Iowa played a tougher SOS than ISU according to the majority of respected SOS metrics.

 

[CyHawk1605]

Correct. He just said beating Iowa State was bigger than beating Ohio State

So beating your rival in a comeback win, in OT, in a Freshman QB’s first game, against a team that utterly hates you and wants to beat you, and he said that was a memorable game? Why does that not seem as bad as you say it is. And going into Nebby and ***** slapping them in their own house is not supposed to be memorable. TBH, I think KF prepares much more for Nebby rather then ISU.

Only Jeff believes ISU played a tougher schedule.

Only according to Sangrin.

How do you disagree with this @Legend Hawk? It's literally what he said

Yeah the universally used site for college football SOS. Lol "only" Sagarin get outta here

I'm well aware Kirk would rather beat Iowa State than Ohio State. We are actually in agreement here

 

[Lemmiwinks]

Yay, another 5 pages of SOS talk.

Saw this CFB Blowout site posted. Some fun stuff to read through. Biggest takeaway - Nebraska and Texas Tech used to be good.

LOL a Husker reporter said that, he didn't quote Ferentz on it. The only thing he quoted that Ferentz said were:

“Good things don’t happen by accident, typically,” he said.

“We’re a little more experienced going into next year, but we lost some seniors,” Ferentz said. “So the challenges are always there. The fun is the work that comes next.”

You drug ours down by going 7-6. We propped yours up by going 10-3.

So you think that's made up? There is a big Rivals thread on it if you Google the quote where it was reported to be accurate by Iowa's guys
