I for sure see your thought process and whole heartedly agree. It may work for us this year, but it shouldn't be so subjective, especially at the top! Is their any kind of national narrative for this format, or is it a wait until current system plays out its flaws?

Trust me, I get the old way of thinking. I was at the Rose Bowl game in '82...I have cheered for us to go to the Rose Bowl every year since (but ONLY because pre CFP, that would mean we won our conference title)....and were not in the BCS title game. ...it is clear to see then, these "trained"...

Agree with you about Baylor...sometimes expectations at the outset of the season give teams the benefit of doubt, sometimes based on last year along with returning players. Watch next fall, regardless of how we look, we will be ranked very high before the season begins based on this year's team...

Agreed...as does Herbstreit ...Iowa has no worries, they are in as long as they win. As to the wanna-be pundits, I think they just get sick of the vocal, whining minority of Hawk fans that pester them "relentlessly" with texts, tweets, etc of "whoa is me- what about Iowa?"...it's overboard...

Now that's a whole new way of looking at this matchup...fun read.

What's up with the "fans" to call in shows, and maybe elsewhere, who prefer the Hawks to go to the Rose bowl over the 2 playoff bowls? Times have changed, learn it, live it, love it...This doesn't happen (like ever) to have a shot at playing, or winning (it's possible) the nat'l Championship...

Top 5 will be the same...okie and okie state move up, Florida and Michigan and msu move higher. Not sure of order, don't care. Beat Purdue!

Awesome...people are again talking about and reading about and hearing about our Iowa Hawkeyes1!!!

Now that is very cool! Hope I can remember to use it.

Makes ya wonder about next year a bit, and if CJ will be in the early Heisman pool/talk!

Not disputing your comfort level, but we were 19-19 over those 3 years. I feel the same way but for different variables.

I don't know. I think it would also depend on who we beat in CCG to get to 12-1. If it is OSU, maybe, but not sure if it is a W over either Mich school. jmo.

No. This is the same staff that mismanaged the game clock vs Mishitagain and could of possibly won game.

Ol' Heather has Iowa as her #6 now and agreed with May and Butch Davis (#5) that they are in if the run the tables.

I also was watching fans in the stands and no one was cheering or holding arms up like it didn't look clearcut to them. BTW, I like the idea of a laser attached to posts. Why isn't this utilized?

ISU almost beat (shoulda) okie St...they stand a good chance to probably lose one of their last 2 games.

Envious of Hawks success, because it wasn't forecasted ahead of the season to happen this way, this year. Just sour fans looking for excuses to try to explain away what "no one" predicted.

We were only exploiting weaknesses of the dome to help you guys get your very own stadium. Truthfully, you should be thanking us!

Just to make aware...also there is a new thread in this forum reporting as well...appears more than a few of us are getting pop up adds replacing HN on same browser window...happens every few minutes the past two days. ...I'm on Android phone using chrome if it helps. Thanks.

Likewise ..annoying...have narrowed it down to this site only...I'm using chrome on Android cell phone. For past 2 days.
