I would take Stanford, but Colorado, Utah, Ariz, Ariz St, and Cal are all good candidates worth considering.

Yes, if Rhule and Fickel fail, Nebraska and Wisconsin may have to lower their expectations and resort to looking for the next Matt Campbell / Cignetti type. You know, a head coach who has had some success at the G5 level, and hopefully can at least build a consistently winning program at...

Which is why the Big Ten could never split into 2 geographic east-west 9-team divisions. It would be unfair to any midwest team assigned to the west division. Maybe 4 geographic divisions of 4 or 5 teams each.

Not saying you are wrong but what's that based on? Especially when you consider that Oregon is undefeated and ranked #1 in the country. Ohio St has only lost at Oregon and is ranked #2 in the country. Do you really think either Oregon or OSU would lose to Vanderbilt like Bama did?

We already have promotion/relegation in 2024. USC, UCLA, Wash, Ore got promoted to the P2 (Big Ten, SEC) Ariz, Ariz St, Utah, Coll, Stan, Cal, SMU went to the M2 (Big 12, ACC, ND) Wash St, Ore St got demoted to G6 (Pac, old G5, UConn)

And of course Wash ends up winning at hime, dominating UCLA . This makes sense Iowa crushed Wash and then Iowa lost to UCLA. The new Big Ten. Anybody (in the bottom 14) can beat anybody (in the bottom 14)

The very definition of mediocre the last decade? Hmmm... I wonder what they would call good?

If the 7-team Big Ten West still existed, the conference records would be 1. Iowa 4-3 2. Minn 4-3 3. ILL 3-3 4. Wisc 3-3 5. Neb 2-4 6. NW 2-4 7. Pur 0-6 Iowa would currently hold the tiebreaker due to head to head win over Minn If the Big Ten had split into new 9-team east west...

Two minute warning is an NFL thing that's meant to notify the teams that rule changes that go into effect in the last 2 minutes of a half are now in effect. The 2 minute time-out, brand new to college just this year, is not meant to notify teams of anything. It's just a timeout. A...

Yes that's how you build a team in the portal era.

I guess in 2014, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2022. Iowa had similar records at this point but still had a mathematical chance to win the Big Ten West. If the 7-team Big Ten West still existed the division standings would be Iowa 4-3 Minn 4-3 ILL 3-3 Wisc 3-3 Neb 2-4 NW 2-4 Pur 0-6 And Iowa would be in...

I heard he had a good reputation as a thrower. From his limited time he played against UCLA, there seems to be some truth to that. But there must some good reasons why he was only a 5th string walk on at Iowa and there must be some good reasons why things did not work out for him at Col St.

I have a new theory that Iowa does not play well on the road when they play on grass. But I am too lazy to do the work to prove it.

Iowa has laid an egg in 2 straight road games at Mich St and UCLA. In both games, Iowa's defense did a very bad job of tackling compared to the typical Iowa defense. This got me wondering what could be the problem other than just being on the road in general. One thing MSU and UCLA have in...

I heard a while back that James Daniels is the only lineman in the NFL that is wearing the padded helmet during games. I don't know if that still is true.

Which is why Texas St is now a serious candidate to join the newly reborn Pac conference. I think there is an official requirement that all football schools in the new Pac must have a name that ends with "state". The other 7 football schools are: Wash St, Ore St, Boise St, Col St, Fresno...

https://www.tamuc.edu/texas-am-university-system-board-of-regents-approves-name-change-for-texas-am-university-commerce/ It's official. T&M - Commerce has officially changed its name to East Texas A&M, effectively immediately.

I still have a hunch that Cade was banged up before the NW game even started. The plan was to let Cade play in the 1Q, and if it was clear he could not continue, then bring in Sullivan and let him finish the game. Kinda like in 2021 when Spencer petras started against NW even though he was...

I hear they are thinking about changing their name to East Texas A&M.

My favorite thing I like about UCLA
