Enjoying your cherry picking, I see.

Cherry picking? How so, the AP top 25 is recognized by both side on this site. Anything after that is so debatable we can never agree. For instance ISU fans say Wisconsin was garbage this year, and think that WVU, TCU and Oregon were super awesome. Too much cherry picking in that data, so we have to go by the AP top 25.

Cherry picking?.... Conveniently leaving off the 2020 season. We both know the B1G West did not represent well. The Big 12 did quite well in comparison.

It doesn't surprise that that even when you are slapped in the face with fact you revert back to your default stupidity. Over the last 5 years 31% of Big10 West teams have finished in the top 25 compared to 32% for the Big12.

Plus the Big10 then has to face more ranked teams from the Big10 East on top of that. Iowa has faced 8 additional top 25 ranked teams from the East over those 5 years.

Serious question: Why do you spend half your life on our message boards? Glad you are obsessed with us. We're contagious that way.

Comparing a team like Oregon who received a ton of votes in the final poll to a team like Wisconsin who received three votes total is dumb even for you

Come on CT, you know perfectly well KF is never bringing in a transfer QB. KF couldn't care less about QB position when recruiting, why would he care to pursue a transfer.

KF strategy for program is based on these principles in descending order of priority:

1) Make sure you schedule teams that assure at least 7-5 season (pretty easy since being in B1G West almost insures this)
2) Don't recruit anyone that will rock the boat
3) Get some linemen that can get drafted
4) Have plenty of average RBs so BF doesn't have to worry about give the ball to the right one
5) Serviceable place kicker
6) Serviceable punter
7) take whats left at QB

Go 7-5, sign extension, go 8-4, get a bonus, go 9-3 sign extension and get bonus

Wash, rinse, repeat
