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.
your reasoning is incoherent. Iowa finished in the top 10 twice in Ferentz's first 5 seasons. ISU with Campbell once. You should be pretty good next season but nothing is guaranteed. After that? we'll see. Has Campbell elevated your program? Absolutely, he's done a great job. Can't argue that. Staying there and maintaining the program at a decent level for 20 plus years is a different ballgame. There will always be ups and downs but will he stick around to ride them out? Nobody knows.

Not exactly sure.
Both TD's were long pass plays at our fifth best corner. One was the double pass and the other was really early in the 3rd quarter off play action.

Other than the 2 TD drives, here are the drives for the ISU offense that day. ISU ran 5 plays all game inside Iowa's red zone and they were all on the same drive that ended with a FG.

6 plays, 29 yards, punt
7 plays, 32 yards, punt
5 plays, 22 yards, fumble lost by Purdy
8 plays, 45 yards, punt
3 plays, 0 yards, punt
13 plays, 66 yards, FG
6 plays, 36 yards, turnover on downs at the Iowa 39
Double passes are illegal. You saying we scored on an illegal play?

You were sober when you said Petras might be better than Purdy?
again.....Purdy had just pissed himself against KSU and Notre Dame. Then came back to open '20 with a real stinker against Louisiana-Lafayette. I will admit that he pulled out of the nosedive nicely but he was trending in a bad direction for a bit there.

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.
What the **** am I even reading?

So you were sober when you said Petras might be better than Purdy?
