Iowa Hate Week - Please post to show your love

[Landlord]

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.

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!

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".

No one asked for any semblance of logic in this thread, Deborah.

HB is getting soft. You hate to see that.

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.

They claim the 1958 FWAA poll NC...

[Undone]

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.

[Caven]

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.

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.
