The Real Reason the Iowa Game is So Huge

[Landlord]

It's not about a bowl game. It's not about a rivalry. Those things are interesting and nice, but it's really about the land:

We beat Iowa and we'll get all that sweet, sweet land. Then who knows, could match up with BYU in a bowl game.

Cool.....Would that mean I could fish in Minnesota with my Nebraska fishing license?

 

[ColoradoHusk]

Has Omaha and Lincoln seen a recent growth in the Mormon population?

Iowa better not roll lots of sixes when Nebraska is on offense Friday.

 

[Stumpy1]

This reminds me of the game Risk... Dominate everything

Crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of acquiring their time shares

I'd prefer Utah in the bowl game. I'll give up Nebraska land for Hawaii, Alaska, and Washington. They can keep Utah and... I think that's part of Arkansas? (Actually, Utah is really pretty (actually actually and so are parts of Arkansas)).

We can fight back for Nebraska real estate next year.

The hell???  ISU has got some of the most bizarre areas in the country.  How do you conquer freaking Maine???

I'm glad to see you've come around to imperialism.

I would agree with you except there's 0% chance we could ever face Utah in a bowl.

If we beat Iowa and then defeat Mizzou in a bowl we would basically own the Louisiana Purchase.

What are you thinking was the Louisiana Purchase?   :blink:

Memphis maybe?

In the category of counting one's ditch chickens way before they've hatched, a win might pit us against Florida St in something like the Cure or Frisco bowl.  That said, a win Friday is going to take a much better performance that we had against Maryland.  A better team that hadn't already packed it in for the season would have exploited our miscues making a game of it.
