Iowa Coaches AND Fans ready to give up the Black Friday game slot

[VA Husker Fan]

Ferentz doesn't want to lose a prep day, like he's such a freaking genius that a day is more valuable to him than Pelini.

 

I don't want a cross division team in this game, with the possibility of a rematch a week later.

 

It would be cool to schedule a home and away with a different old Big 8 team every 2 years.

Why dont we switch Penn State with Iowa.... Penn State or Wisconsin...... or Oklahoma are my choices lol

[TGHusker]

Move Wisky to our division and we'll play them every Friday after Thanksgiving. Iowa fans are a bunch of kids still searching for their brains.

I can see a Wisky tradition developing over time to rival OU/NU. Esp after we beat them on Sat for the CC.

OU would never go for it. MidGame Bob doesn't want any more obstacles in the way of his hunt for another national 10th place finish.

Move Mich to same div as OSU and Wisky to our division. Then we don't have worry about the teams playing each other a week later in the CC game.

I've never heard Greg Davis talk, but I like to imagine he sounds like Droopy.

i vote we go w/ an SEC type schedule - play Iowa in week 2 - then schedule a non-con gimme on Black Friday...I'm thinking something along the lines of - Colorado.

 

I thought we were trying to get away from scheduling teams from D1AA.

Don't want any part of that. Move Michigan to same division as OSU and PSU, and I guarantee our division becomes much like the Big12 North. Most of the talent will reside in the UM, OSU, PSU (after sanctions) triumverant. We'd be in the "forgotten" West division.

I think he might be mad because this was the 2nd time we beat him lol.

Agreed. Michigan State would be a better alternative to switch with Wisconsin, IMO. Sure, they're going to lose a rivalry or two, but that's to be expected when your conference is expanding to 16 team--just make Michigan/MSU the protected crossover game for each school, move Wisky to Black Friday, and move Iowa to FCS.

You don't think Wisc and NU can draw enought talent? Wisc, NU, MSU can be 3 pretty talented programs.

We do that, then we will be down to 15 schools! No more CCG!!! I think we should bring a better team than Iowa in... like Old Dominion

 

On that note, anyone seen Taylor Heinicke play? That kid is an absolute stud and only a sophomore.

I liked the post about "how this is nebby's tradition who cares" or to that extent. Clearly, traditions arise from thin air.

We simply asked them if they wanted to keep our tradition going, they agreed and now they got beat two years in a row, they would rather not do it lol. Thats what it sounds like to me. I like the tradition. If Iowa was to become a better team, this could dramatically improve both teams appearance on a national level.

Anyway we can get them to move the 2021 and 2022 games?
