Spencer Petras vs Zach Wilson

[Nate STANley]

I’ll give anyone the benefit of the doubt if they don’t bring it up. I don’t think Twins brought that game up, it was Nate Stanley (the account) who brought up that game and tried to use that game to say Nate Stanley (current Minnesota Viking) is better than Brock Purdy.

Lol I was not saying Stanley is better than Purdy. I was saying that many ISU fans say Stanley wasn’t very good, yet he outplayed the alleged goat of the QB position in the state of Iowa

How can you even say this when Campbell has yet to beat Iowa?

If you would’ve asked me back in 2014 who I’d rather beat, Iowa or OU, I’d no doubt choose Iowa. I don’t even think I’d ever seen us beat OU so it felt like an easy answer.

Now, it’s an easier answer. I’d much rather lose to Iowa than OU because the loss to OU could hurt our chances at making the Big 12 title game. No different than you would probably want to beat Wisconsin over Iowa State because there are actual implications to the Wisconsin game.

Beating Alabama is a bigger deal to Iowa fans under KF than beating Michigan.

Do you really think finishing 7 spots higher in the final AP poll one season means you have surpassed Iowa as a program?

And ISU returns everyone and have Dekkers and Brock and Sanders and Iowa has yet another round of unknown MAC recruits. It remains to be seen if they too can live up to 'the Iowa way' and overachieve to the level of another Outback Bowl like the majority of the last two decades.

what I do know is you follow more Hawkeyes on Twitter than I do

Don't follow one Iowa athlete on Twitter

Stop being such a rational person. We can’t handle this.

If your going to blame the whole loss on that, you need to stop posting about football.

You're* and no I'm not. It was a game changing call yes but Iowa won the game

Steele Jantz sucks and he never lost to Iowa

now we know you're drinking early on a Friday when you bring up recruiting and the last 2 decades

Iowa’s last class was a round of unknown MAC recruits? What a take that is!

Iowa sucked in 2011 and 2012 though

LOL. whoa there. Your "program" has surpassed Iowa despite not beating them and 1 season of ending up ranked ahead of them. Pump the brakes just a little. You guys will be good next year too due to so many guys returning but it's 2022 that will be the real measuring stick of where you are at after you lose Purdy, Hall, Milton, Kolar etc.... Dropoff will be expected but how much will be the question.

Of course ISU is set up for this year and is going to drop off next. That's not really relevant. The past doesn't matter when you're talking about the state of the program as compared to Iowa moving forward from right now. Comparing the resume of what's been done at Iowa under Ferentz as a whole and what's been done under ISU under campbell is another matter entirely.

You mean the classes of unknown MAC recruits that consistently are ranked higher and have better offers than ISU's classes?

Did you not pay any attention to the top 25 class Iowa just brought in, with multiple 4 star recruits, along with having one of the best offensive line classes in the country?

Wasn't Vandenberg good in 2011?

 

[Statefan10]

Lol I was not saying Stanley is better than Purdy. I was saying that ISU fans say Stanley wasn’t any good, yet he outplayed the alleged goat of the QB position in the state of Iowa

Again, using one game to justify anything is ridiculous. Lol

Wait you’re not drinking?

Iowa recruits against themselves. Much like Barta negotiates against himself. You can't tout Iowa as this standard of unheralded player development and at the same time ignore the fact that rarely does a recruit without Iowa ties choose Iowa over other comparable P5 destinations.

 

[Nate STANley]

Wasn't Vandenberg good in 2011?

Yeah, he was also throwing to McNutt though. He was an OK QB. Cant really measure his 2012 season due to the change in OC

You guys sucked with McNutt on your team?
