Landlord Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 They make fun of us for being mediocre since our dynasty run, then ritually celebrate a realistically mediocre season ever 4-5 years amidst not good seasons. You can't make this stuff up, they are kinda like KSux fans. I know people occasionally accuse me of being an Iowa homer on this board, which I most assuredly am not, but the only reason I get those accusations is because people aren't fair or rational in their assessments of Iowa's programs. Since 2001... Number of 11+ win seasons: Iowa - 3 Nebraska - 0 Number of top 10 finishes: Iowa - 4 Nebraska - 0 Number of conference championships (yes, we are all aware that these were obtained differently than the Big XII): Iowa - 2 Nebraska - 0 Number of major bowl appearances: Iowa - 3 Nebraska - 0 Their program operates quite differently than ours in the sense of having common 4-7 win seasons, but also has seasons sprinkled in that are better than anything we've accomplished in 15 years. 3 Quote Link to comment

They just celebrated their best season in school history with two consecutive losses, one in a title game and the second in a blowout at the Rose Bowl. So to summarize, not conference title or bowl win.....best season ever! 1 Quote Link to comment

NoLongerN Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 I have no hate for Iowa. Lots of respect. They seem to beat us more then they should. I'll remain humble and hopeful for a "W". 1 Quote Link to comment

Landlord Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 They just celebrated their best season in school history... They have a national championship lol Do you hate Iowa or not? Yes. f#*k Iowa. But only based on my own personal feelings and perspective, not by actually trying to make a logical case for it. No need to go there y'all. pooping on Iowa is easy - pooping on iowa by actually trying to compare how bad they are just makes us look dumb. Quote Link to comment
Redux Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 They claim the 1958 FWAA poll NC... 1 Quote Link to comment
Undone Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 I think they're very similar to K-State in the Big 12. And there were some seasons where K-State completely embarrassed us. But I definitely agree with Landlord's assessment. This season, I see them being on the same basic plane as Minnesota overall, but obviously with a much worse offense. I think if we win this game by starting Ryker with a broken left hand that this entire season is a tip of the hat to Riley's ability to make adjustments that get the most out of his team. I really, really want to win this game. Quote Link to comment
Caven Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 This was at the same time one of the funniest and yet one of the most frustrating things I have seen in a long time. Quote Link to comment
Caven Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 They claim the 1958 FWAA poll NC... Actually we don't "claim" it. I don't think you will find anything official claiming an actual championship. It is simply listed in the list of rankings of all polls. I don't know any Iowa fan that actually claims we have a national championship in football. Quote Link to comment
