    Your morning pick-me-up

    Of the ones I attended I rate the following: loudest: CJ Jones opening kickoff against USC. Yes, louder than 'the catch' and even louder than Dallas Clark's catch at home against Purdue. (Must have been at least 50,000 Hawkeye fans at the Orange Bowl) My ears hurt in a good way and you could...

    Time to Move Central Iowa 4A Substate Basketball Games to College Arenas

    I was there! Agreed, great game and fantastic atmosphere. Only bad thing is they had to have turned people away as we got there at least 40 minutes before tipoff and had to pack in one of the top corners. Knapp Center would have been nice for capacities sake.

    A little Basabe goes a long ways

    The greatest thing about Basabe is that he will be back next year, Sullinger won't.

    Alvarez: UW and Iowa to go separate ways

    My question is where is Barta in all of this? First goal should have been to play all of our border rivals each season. Well this isn't going to happen. So now that Alvarez is close with Delaney, Wisconsin will get to play most of their rivals and we get to screw the pooch with the eastern...

    Interesting thoughts on Division Alignment

    Yes WeDomn8 that was my thinking, and excellent breakdown you have provided. It still drives me crazy that there are years that we don't play either Ohio State or Michigan. My thoughts are that the more butts we put in seats = more money for the Big 10 coffers = more money back to the schools...

    Interesting thoughts on Division Alignment

    Hopefully, Delaney doesn't blow this as the East/West makes the most sense (keeps all the main rivalries intact). And for some saying the west is the weakling, the west would have kicked the crap out of the east last year with 5 (including Nebraska) bowl teams to only 3 for the east. Looks to be...

    how about big ten pods in 2011

    Year one scenario: North plays South/East pods South plays North/West pods First division would be North and South pods East plays North/West pods West plays South/East pods Second division would be East and West pods First division vs Second division in conference championship game

    how about big ten pods in 2011

    I didn't even think about the two pods aligning but it would work out that way each year. It would rotate as to who the divisions would be N/S vs W/E one year N/W vs S/E the next and so on. So, to answer the other question on this thread that would give the head to head matchup to decide who...

    how about big ten pods in 2011

    Just to clarify. One pod would play two other complete pods and then one team from the remaining pod. Each team would have three protected rivals, one from each pod. In essence we would end up playing each of the other pods two out of three years as they would rotate.

    how about big ten pods in 2011

    Goals: To play every team twice in a 3 year period. Playing a home and home in back to back years. Guarantee each team would play at least 3 teams from the top tier. (ticket sales) Emphasize rivals. Tier 1's Michigan Ohio State Penn State Nebraska 2nd Tier Michigan St Wisconsin...

    Big Ten Expansion: Four by Four???

    If the Big Ten is going to expand this big I would rather have 15 teams with three divisions like an earlier poster mentioned. Leave out one of the eastern schools. We would play everyone in our own division plus at least two schools in each of the other divisions. I would rather not shut the...
