College Football: The Auburn Tigers are not a legitimate BCS championship contender - ESPN It is very interesting how close Iowa is from being on this list. They only included the top 10 in the AP this week in the list they compiled, but Wisc. only scored 3 out of the 6.. OFFENSIVE...

Prior to the game. Tolizen had thrown for 12 touchdowns, 8 in the redzone. ;)

No one compared those two. Why did you bring it up now? (just realized that you were talking about the OP ;)) NFL scouts have said numerous times that Hawkeye players make excellent NFL players.

You can't tell me Brad Banks didn't make stupid passes or plays like that. What cracks me up is that you are putting the entire game on his shoulders. If that play would have happened at any other point in the game, would you care? No. The kid did absolutely everything he could to win that game...

Looking at those 4 teams and their respective schedules.. I think it will be pretty tough for all of them to be ranked when Iowa plays them. I do think that Iowa's schedule is still fairly hard but they just get all of the hardest teams at home =) which gives everyone the "Easy" perspective!

Stanzi sitting at #5.. but not many votes have been cast yet! Throw down some votes! VoteOBrien.org: College football QB fan vote standings - Vote today!

Agreed. =), Some upsets will need to happen and Iowa definitely just needs to win. I think Boise is a lock if they go undefeated. If TCU and Boise both go undefeated, both of them will not go in. If they do, BCS had better implode!

Since when has Iowa went 11-1 and beaten a 9-0 #2 Ohio State, beaten 4 other Ranked opponents, and won the Big Ten? =) And currently they are the #1 1 loss team.

Why? Last season their were 4 undefeated teams. Iowa made it to 10th after losing to NW late and then Ohio State back 2 back. Florida was 1 loss team at 5th with their last loss coming last to #2 Alabama. So, Florida lost to #2 and dropped down 4 spots, won their bowl game and ended up 3rd...

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, I read the first page and got tired of reading them =). Does everyone realize that Arizona's defense got lit up by Iowa? They still scored 21 points on them. Let everyone run Arizona's defense and see if it works for them. Once Iowa scores the first 14...

Agree 100%, and again. You do not base your game plan on the environment. You base it on the conditions that you can not control. Environmental Control, the answer to that is in the word. Mental. If the team is mentally ready for the game, then there could have been twice as many people in...

I am still confused at how not everyone understands my first reply. Is their any difference offensively in having the ball 1st or 2nd? If Iowa got punted to, got the ball on the 20, do you think the outcome of the series would have changed? I'm not saying it works everytime, obviously it...

I have no idea about the JV situation nor did I notice Stanzi being woozy, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen. Now, here are some questions to think about though. Does 5-6 yards really matter when you are on your 30 and pretty much looking for a prayer? Not really. Thinking back now, I...

Why should anything other than weather conditions matter in the decision to take the ball at the beginning of the game? The excuse that our Defense is awesome, so why not have them start on the field? This is EXACTLY why Iowa TAKES the ball at the beginning of the game. It is a FREEBIE...

Dish Network, DirectTV would be good change ups. I really don't know if they have service in every nook of Iowa, but I see no reason they couldn't. (Sorry if you saw this before i added the last part.. heh, got a head of myself.)

Well, They can watch the game from the comfort of their own homes. Actually, a majority of people watch from their homes. So, sure their aren't any sit down restaurants close by, but there is one heck of a cheese-steak stand right next to your own house. I actually haven't been to a game this...

You are acting as though the fans or students have no impact on the football program. It is like owning a restaurant, with some awesome tables and chairs and other cool stuff that you can do/sit on while you are there.. then one day telling everyone that you can use all that stuff, but if you...

Why not Big 11 since we have 12 teams?

Nebraska is all but packed up. If Colorado jets early. That leaves no spot for Baylor. Texas seems to think they have 4 awesome schools that no one wants to turn down, but could they possibly lobby the remaining members to stay? I know it wouldn't be to hard to convince KU, KSU, ISU. Other than...
