Will merely beating Iowa change the narrative or will their record matter?

That’s not possible because I wasn’t posting on this website last year at this time. You are right that every fan base has idiots though.

Lol yeah OK Benji

I think you have only 4 chances at quality wins this year. Iowa, Texas, Oklahoma, (possibly)TCU. Win 2 of those 4 and you are set for your historic season.

Try harder

Okay? What does Baylor's schedule have to do with them being a quality opponent?

It might look like a quality win at the time you play them (and should beat them) and for a few weeks afterwards. But they will be exposed once November comes by TCU, Oklahoma, and Texas back to back to back.

ISU defeating Iowa this year is looking increasingly probable if various reports and predictions are to be believed. The downside if there is one is that these reports indicate that this might not be one of Iowa's better teams, and it certainly not be if they finish near the bottom of their division like some prognosticators suggest.

I was wondering whether then the cyclone faithful might be persuaded to root for the Hawks outside of the game in Trice stadium? Or will the posture continue to be eff them?

So they suck because they lose to a quality TCU team and two top 10 opponents?

From a quick search of your posts, it looks like you have accused at least a half dozen other users of being this benji character. He must have really done a number on you.

You've had more than a half dozen accounts on here

Oh wow, the thought that a team may lose to TCU, OU and Texas in back to back to back weeks ... no way they could be quality if that happens. Come on man. I'm starting to think we have different thresholds for what a "quality" opponent is.

This year buddy

I guess we'll find out. If they lose all 3 of those games by 4 touchdowns then I'd say NO they aren't a quality opponent.

He/she also thinks Iowa State was better than Iowa last year- not exactly an unbiased individual.

All you have to do is look in the mirror

You think Nate Stanley is better than Brock Purdy...

I think beating Texas is more important as he has yet to do that.

But Iowa is important as a way to move on.

I really hate the hoks and everything they stand for. Which isn't much. I hate their fans, their players, their campus, their city. Posters on this board know that, I even get negatives from some of them in the past for the venom I spew towards ToE.

I want them to go in the tank and stay there. It's a dumb question. End of discussion.

I think Iowa was better than Iowa State when we played in early September. I think Iowa State would've beaten Iowa if they had played their last game against one another. Either way, it doesn't matter.

You didn't think Baylor was a "quality" win last year did you?
