Once and a while I find myself cheering for Iowa, and then people like you snap me back out of it. Biggest football game in the last 25 years for Iowa, and you have nothing better to do than go try to troll a rival. Pathetic.
Yep. I think it is humorous quite frankly. Even on one of the biggest days in Iowa athletics history, Iowa fans can't get ISU out of their heads (Jon Miller included).

Really, what's so big about it?
It was big in a bygone era, now just a step-up from TaxSlayer etc.

Not for good football teams.

Was Iowa "good" the previous three years when they were 19-19? Or did this season maybe, just maybe, surprise everyone (even Iowa fans with Fire Ferentz pitchforks) because Iowa played a laughably easy schedule? Iowa beat five bowl teams, ISU's nine losses were to bowl teams. Keep in mind Big 10 teams have one extra non-con creampuff each, too.

Iowa still only beat one top 20 team and lost to the only top 10 team it faced, so if Iowa gets beaten by Stanford tonight lets table the Iowa-is-elite narrative that your leader has tried to trumpet for the past two months. Iowa's best win is getting bent over by the 23rd ranked team in the country right now.

Record of ISU bowl teams in nine losses (pre-bowl games):
Iowa 12-1
Oklahoma 12-1
Oklahoma St 10-2
TCU 10-2
Toledo 9-2
Baylor 9-3
Texas Tech 7-5
West Virginia 7-5
Kansas State 6-6
=82-27 (.828)

Record of Iowa bowl teams in five wins (pre-bowl games):
Northwestern 10-2
Wisconsin 9-3
Pitt 8-4
Indiana 6-6
Nebraska 5-7
Minnesota 5-7
=43-29 (.597)

If you include the loss to Michigan St 12-1
= 55-30 (.647)

Are any Hawks blaming refs, injuries, or Stanford's Superbowl yet or are they back to wanting "comatose" Kirk fired?

That's what a rational fan of NCAA football would ask. Hawk fans are still stuck in Fry's 80's where the Rose Bowl is king. Many actually wanted to miss the CFB playoffs to go to the Rose Bowl. Really perplexing with that thought process.

So what is the hok line after the game today:

They win - CFP selection process is a travesty, performance of MSU highlights that the better team did not win the B1G championship, yada, yada, yada

They lose - Fire Ferentz? Stanfords Super Bowl? Too beat up from rigorous B1G schedule? Still own the state of Iowa?

Looking like 'Fire Ferentz' is the winner!

    What an utter joke Iowa has turned into over a month, coaching staff has not prepped for this game at all, and now Iowa is going to be laughing stock of all football yet avian, utter garbage KF​
