0-18 or is it 0-19 now? I've lost count. It seems so surreal. "Tell me it aint so Joe?"

Looking back over the years could anyone have predicted this........ anyone??

0-13 and it will carry the into next season. It's just so damn frustrating because we were in every game this year.

That's what makes it so painful as we could have won several of those games. Almost like flipping a coin.

In this one a first down on the facemask could have been the difference. Or the late hit out of bounds. What the hell were they seeing on either play? Our guy was clearly out of bounds and had actually relaxed when he was hit.............. not even debatable, the announcers were full of shit.
 


It's also painful to see the perennial scrub football program Indiana doing so well. If it was a Michigan, Notre Dame, or Alabama that had a down time for a few seasons but then came back a person could easily understand and point out they have been elite programs and its hard to keep elite programs down forever.......... but effing Indiana???

I have accepted the reality that Iowa is no longer a Top 20 program.

We are average. Can compete with better ranked programs, but can only achieve slim loses. Hope this doesn't put us in the Yankee stadium bowl or Detroit bowl.!

I mean usc is no push over and it was on the road. But when you dont come up with a home upset, youre a good top 35 team at best.
 


Pathetic. Numbers don’t lie.
Kirk will finish with 7-8 wins, go to a bowl and consider that a successful season.

Well dammit, no it isn’t anymore. With Coaches salary’s, NIL, fans supporting the Swarm, ticket prices that go up every season. Piss on that.
Don’t want to hear the BS “well it’s Iowa, can’t get the players” BS! Indiana is a perfect example.
