    Isn't scalping always cheaper?

    It is if you know the lay of the land, the sections of the stadium, the going prices, and are not afraid to speak up loud and often. (Carry a seating chart with you)! If youre on the streets looking, get further out from the stadium, catch people early on, even as they are parking. Try to...

    The "icing on the cake" "gravy" approach.

    Cake is good and all, but it is the extra icing that makes a good cake, a great cake! Just because I personally say and have repeated that it's "icing on the cake" doesn't mean I'm not geared up for Saturday like it's a Super Bowl or Stanley Cup game. This is still THE game...but like the NFL...

    Big 10 Title Game - No Ulcers

    A great coach once said to his team preceding a very big game, "The hay's in the barn boys, it's time to go huntin'"! 12-0 is in the books and is Hawkeye history... now everything from here on is NCAA and B1G history...but it is all gravy.

    Complete look at all 16 scenarios should we lose

    my eyes can't squint that chart into anything legible on my PC...Good on ya for taking the time and thinking it thoroughly through and for sharing, but.... PS... the FPI, as devised by eSPiN, is a terrible barometer.

    USA Today: CFP Contender Bonuses

    Bonus incentives are money very well spent...especially in KF case...paid by the University athletic dept...glad to see Iowa is so far out on this. Beats 10 year guaranteed contracts as well...but guessing that as these incentives are reached, that the 10 year contract issue becomes debate...

    Afraid Yet?

    Lol.... ...I did like this gem..."Crap, forget that, that was actually from the press conference when Jamie announced the hiring of Paul Rhoads."

    UPDATED BOWL SCENARIOS: Including how Iowa can MISS New Years Six

    Ok, I understand better now, thanks. So the Orange isn't set in stone to be #1 v #4, it could just as easily be hosting #2 v #3....all dependent on who the #1 seed is....makes more sense.

    Kirk wins Coach of the year

    I hope you realize as well PC's response was tongue in cheek too.. Although you all 3 spelled out what we all know to be true.... ...no hiding from the fact that KF deserves the COY honor and I hope even more so, he brings greater praise upon himself this week!

    UPDATED BOWL SCENARIOS: Including how Iowa can MISS New Years Six

    So, if Clemson were to lose, and the viability of having Oklahoma ranked #4 or #1 to have them going to Orange Bowl, rather than 3 hr drive to Dallas...wouldn't that then mean that Alabama moves up to #1 and we shuffle to #2, with Oklahoma slipping to #4? Therefore we could be playing Stanford...

    Carolina

    So does that mean they are in the CFP if they beat Clemson?.... Ooh, you're referring to the professionals... I was confused for a second there since this was the Hawk football forum... ;) PS. Oregonhawk...just curious did that Iowa kid that went to Oregon see any PT this year? If so...

    Iowa Football 2015. The 12-0 Season.

    A lot of great images from the season...thanks for compiling...would prefer a shorter readers digest version for repeat viewing and multiple sharing. Good job.

    Iowa remains #4 in playoff rankings (NM)

    This is a de facto playoff game...The committee will have already seen how Iowa V MSU has played out. They will not give us a second chance for a rematch with the team that just beat us. Our fate with moving forward is with a win vs MSU only. Unfortunately, the same doesn't hold true for OSU...

    Is This Iowa's Biggest Game Since 1986..or Longer?

    I think this is the biggest, ever....as stated in the other thread, the perception of Iowa is at a point where we can work back into the upper tier B1G and nat'l mix of respect going forward with a win. Lose, and it becomes an "I told you so" bi-line...we were respected already back in 85. Plus...

    Predictions for Big Ten Championship Game.......

    I'm hoping the refs don't somehow dictate the outcome....we do always seem to play Sparty close, but then we tend to play most good teams close...I'm going to respect their D and say we win like 27-20 in 2 OTs...tied at 17 in regulation, and both teams getting 3 in the first OT. Iowa scoring the...

    Is this the biggest Iowa game in our generation?

    I am in....this is the one. I was at the 1 vs 2 in 1985, while a big game, and an important and good game, we were already recognized as a respected team, this has so much more on the line, especially in this day and age from perception and recruiting, to just the "Told you so" satisfaction! I...

    Anybody watching this College football playoff show on Fox now?

    Unfortunately, this is the brunt of the damage that the media nuts bring on...the perception they paint in young kid's minds. Forget the fact that one is now resigned to having to explain AND DEFEND the Hawkeyes and the state of Iowa to aunts and cousins and friends all around the country that...

    Anybody watching this College football playoff show on Fox now?

    Ha, I forgot about him. Jason Whitlock is a racist, sexist tard that ****** off enough people to finally get fired from ESuxPN. Recall his racist, sexist hatred comment of the former LALaker (sensation), Jeremy Lin, who's asian-american? Didn't he **** off mark Cuban about something too?

    What do this season and a Disney movie have in common?

    Written out like that...you're kinda right....the questions remain though...how does it end? Will the band of nonames become nat'l champions, or will they be taught a life lesson in humility?
