B1G

Even MN would be a good rivalry. Have to get them back for what they did to Jack Trice.
I know you have a love-hate relationship with ISU, but seriously, look at Iowa's schedule this year....Purdue, Indiana, Maryland, Northwestern, Minnesota, Illinois, Wiscy, Nebby. That's as soft as the old Big 12 North days (big 12 light, as I liked to call it). What did ISU do there? They were in the race for their division championship a couple years, with teams with huge problems. Based on current rankings, Iowa won't face a ranked foe until the last game of their schedule. I'm not singing the praises of the current ISU team, but sumbitch, you give us 11 games against unranked opponents, we can win a heck of a lot more than we're winning now.
This would be a great league for proximity and regional rivalries! It will never happen but would be sweet if it somehow did.
Worst thread ever. The LAST thing ISU wants is realignment talk. Does anyone even remember the last time we went through this??
Let's just say it was looking Mountain Westish as best case scenario for us. It's been proven the big10 doesn't pick teams according to geographic location and academics. They pick for TV market shares.
This is our only viable conference if we want to remain in a power 5 league. Period.

We are already in the best conference in the land. Why would we want to join trailer trash?
Replace K-State with Minnesota, Baylor with Northwestern, Okie State with Purdue, Tech with Illinois, TCU with Maryland? OU with Michigan, Iowa with Iowa?
He@@ yes ISU would win at a MUCH higher rate.
Exactly. Plus, I love the little sister and sour grapes irony with this fanbase. Rip on the Big 10 constantly, like, non-stop. But covet what the conference has and the desire to get an invite from that conference.
Will it never happen? Don't know. Is it even remotely likely or a realistic possibility? Nope.
It's not realistic at all, but I'd take us in the B1G in a heartbeat. Would love Kansas and Kansas State as additions as well.
Can't even imagine what it'd take to make that happen. I feel like lawmakers would have to get involved for the first time to get that shot.

Have to disagree based on the number of Florida recruits we get. Though I could see a slight drop off.
Wow, they've had the exact same team for all that time? I'm surprised the players still have eligibility.
Oh wait, everything changes from year to year so you have effing clue what Nebraska would have done in the Big12 the past few years.
I wouldn't mind it joining the B1G I suppose. I don't think it will happen but I wouldn't mind it.
Yes we do. Bo Pelini loses 4 games every year. Death, Taxes, and Bo Pelini losing 4 games
I think you meant to say "no" effing clue there.
You may want to stress that point to some of your fellow ISU fans. They seem to think they do have an effing clue about how ISU would do if they joined the B1G.
