Like to see a link on that one. However, this posting was more recent and therefore seems to have more bearing on his current state of mind. From his POV, it seems like the campus and the academics at BC blows Iowa away, so all we have going for us is the fans and the coaching staff. He...

Yes, ISU isn't terrible, but can anyone argue that beating them and Minnesota means we would have been a better team than we are now?

It doesn't exactly sound like he had a great time though either. Based on that, I don't think he will choose Iowa.

Yep, because schools should be able to easily replace SIX three year starters on defense and one of the best QBs in school history and not miss a beat.

I have to agree 100%. I was thinking about this the other day, and even if we had blown out ISU and Minnesota to go 9-3, we wouldn’t have been a better team than the 7-5 team we have. The way we played vs Penn State, MSU and Nebraska was more telling of this season than losing to ISU and...

Yeah, because we all know that a wide-open passing game would still work well in Iowa in late October-November. Leach has no desire to run the ball and unlike the Big 12, they do actually play defense here. Look at the offenses that Purdue had. How many Big 10 titles did they win? How many...

You’re being a hypocrite here. Bringing up what happened seven years ago, but pointing out to another poster that our last Big 10 titles were 8 and 10 years ago. If the past is irrelevant, then recent past is all that matters and the last 3-4 years haven't been bad at all. Last year we...

Then do us all a favor and go and do it. We all knew you were going to complain before the game even started. Yes, a lot of us wish they had done things differently on their last drive, but a game is made of more than one drive and the players haven't executed on offense enough. I don't see...

One of the many things I am thankful for is that win or lose, I get to be a Hawkeye fan. There are those that aren't so blessed. Come on guys, let's take it to 'em! On Iowa and Go Hawks!

More people need to have that attitude.

Congratulations on beating your first top 6 team in 58 tries!

LOL! I just about spit out my water.

Well-said!

If you want to keep your head in the sand, I guess that is your right, but do the homework. Don't just lump them together by name. Bad losses: 2011-Minnesota 2010-ISU, Minnesota 2008-Illinois 2007-Indiana, ISU, WMU 2002-ISU Look at the other years when we lost to Big 10 bottom feeders and...

Yeah, but you see, these Kirk bashers don't want to hear about great efforts in a loss. To them, Kirk failed to win a game he should have.

Couldn’t you say that about any coach and the cupcakes on their schedule? This is such BS. ISU’s records during the years we lost to them (6-4, 3-9, 7-5, 7-7, 7-5, 9-3 and 4-7). Kirk’s first year we only won 1 game and ISU had beat Hayden the year before, so they were probably...

That's the best you're coming back with? I didn't cherry pick anything. I put all the numbers out there, but what you're saying is that being left with a bare cupboard is no excuse. Whatever. If you're too ignorant to see that Norm's defenses have traditionally struggled with spread passing...

I agree. I liked what I have seen of him so far and felt he deserved more carries, but there must be some reason he is not in.
