A lot of whining in todays CR Gazette about how much air travel fans will need to see the Hawkeyes in 2024, what with only two road games within six hour driving distance …
Um, guys? You start adding New Jersey and California schools to your “Midwestern” conference, this is what you get. You can’t have it both ways, with a geographically compact alliance of schools with similar philosophies AND a profit-centered corporate behemoth bent on accumulating as much TV money as humanly possible.
The Gazette is also whining about how much tougher Iowa‘s path to the B1G championship will be when divisions go away in 2024 - a tacit admission that the West is soft.

Actual Hawkeye schedule for 2024:
Illinois State
Iowa State
Troy
HOME: UCLA, Wisconsin, Nebraska, Maryland
AWAY: Illinois, Minnesota, Ohio State, Rutgers, USC
They're bringing Haydenism to the super conference and we're here for it.
Bake in those excuses early.
History went out of the fu***** window when The B1G decided to raid conferences. They can take history and their stupid rivalry trophies and f*** right off.

Iowa fans love to beat their chests at Nebraska but refuse to acknowledge that Nebby is a fraction of what they used to be. Iowa has dominated the series against a terrible team but they love to pretend like they are beating Osborne era squads.

Yep I can't stand Frost but he was the first one to have the balls to call Iowa out on it. He wasn't wrong.
That was their actual 2024 schedule before USC/UCLA came along.

God, it’s always unreal how much that fan base needs their asses pampered.
No, that was their schedule before the new one was announced yesterday. Once again Iowa State was due to be their toughest game regardless of how good the Clones would be. In 2015 the game in Ames vs an eventual 3-9 ISU team was Iowa’s toughest game aside from at Wisconsin, and the Badgers have regressed a lot since then.
They complain but there was even video of Iowa coaches doing the snap clap while the line was set.
They’re probably pissed they have to play USC and OSU same season and call this a brutal schedule

I can’t stand Frost but there was video evidence of hok assistants doing exactly what he claimed. Kurt feigning indignation was just BAU for hm.
It is a call that should be made more often. I remember seeing defenders of more than one team congratulating each other after feigning the snap count and drawing an ISU penalty. Maybe don't call it if nobody moves and just issue a warning but if the offense is fooled by it you have to call one of the two penalties and it should be on the defense.
Here they come.
Interesting choice for number of seasons.
Bucky fans really don't care much about Iowa but 3-8 over the last decade + is pretty uninteresting.
