You guys realize we are Iowa right? .... we've had some good years... but not 5 national championship good years.
He'll know a little more about us in a few years. Penn State has gotten to know us a little better as of late...yes? :)
Toms not a young man anymore... it's been a crazy couple...
Both CU and Nebby called their bluff... I love it. They just aren't real accustom to not getting what they want... which is why they won't come to the Big10. Jon I really think at this point tweets like the one you mention are being laughed at by everyone excpet TX. They think they are fooling...
Pride... TX likes to call the shots...
Things are changing now however... with CU and OSU going on their own to the PAC-10 and Nebby to the Big10... TX might swallow some pride and agree to become an equal partner in the Big10 vs... who knows what.
I don't know about a trophy... but how about a convoy of combines the week of the game heading east/west on I-80... raise awareness for farmers.. build up to the game. Maybe they escort the trophy to either stadium depending on location.... maybe not?
So... is ND on the clock then (for the 12 teams option)?.. with the Big12 implosion and Nebby-Mizzu deadline looming?
I can't think the Big10 wants to risk letting those 2 get away while they wait for ND to make a decision.
MWC... as that seems to be the general thinking on where they would end up. I gotta think, with the their network already in place, they would like KU, KSU.. and ISU... no?... just a thought.
