This whole notion of competetive balance just burns me up! It is a mirage based on historical perspective and has no relevance to what will be. A straight geographical split is the only thing that preserves the traditional rivalries and yet is still competetively balanced at this time. I wish...

Got my tix yesterday. I can't wait!

Cedar Rapids which once held the nickname of "the parlor city" is now the Orwellian City. :mad:

I whole heartedly support BW. I hope that whatever has caused his absence is something that he can rectify without too much heart ache. I loved watching BW and think his future in football is a bright one, so here's hoping he is back soon!

I too would love to see seating capacity increased, but since the university just spent 80+ million on stadium renovation and is in the middle of a multi million dollar upgrade of Carver, I don;t see it happening anytime soon. As for night games...I love em, but if you start to do too many the...

Well as long as we are perpetuating false rumors, did you all know that Norm Parker is retiring? :p

Homer I agree with you 100%. While visiting some of the other Big 10 boards I have read comments about Stanzi being a turnover machine who's stats just aren't worthy of being considered great. My counterpoint is Stanzi's leadership and coolness under fire when the game is on the line have more...

Good thing I already have mine then. :D

It will be interesting to see how this team handles going from the hunter to the hunted. Traditionally Iowa has not had alot of success when they are not the sleeper (1985 being the exception). Hopefully the team can handle the role reversal and not get too caught up in their own press. High pre...

I personally think the Big 10 is done expanding, and will not do so any further unless the SEC or Pac 10 go superconference. At that point all bets are off and the Big 10 would put it's contingency plans into action. Without one of it's major competitors expanding the Big 10 stands pat. Also...

Iowa in first with 25 % of the vote as of 7am this morning. Cool!

I look for the series to continue (even though I could take it or leave it) Both programs managed to work the other in when there was an 11 game schedule and only 3 OOC games. There will be some sticky logistics to be sure, but if it ends it won't be for lack of trying on either part. As I...

I think you mean, that is what a weak schedule can do. ISU won't be so lucky this year. They have to play the big boys. Reality will hit home this year and your Rhoads to nowhere will discover that beating the likes of North Dakota State, Kent State, Army, Baylor etc. to pad your win record...

I have no problem with the Nebraska love the media is giving out, I have bigger problems with the media that is picking Wisconsin ahead of Iowa in the Big 10. :mad:

I'll take some OSU tix off of somebody's hands. I'm willing to pay up to as much as $37.50 a piece, but not a penny more! :p

And Jack Nicholson called and wished he had access to your quote when he starred in 1 Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. ISU was decent last year? Their signature win came against a Nebraska team that turned the ball over 7 times, and they only won by 2 points. Their other victories came against...

:confused: You're joking right? PSU's walkons could beat ISUcks #1's by at least 4 touchdowns!

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSEE YA!!! :D

Last I checked ISUcks still plays in the Big 12-2. With the B-ball doormats (Nebby and Col) gone and them having to play a round robin with the likes of Kansas, Texas, and new powerhouses Baylor, KSU etc. ISUcks will still be at the bottom of the pile. But just as in football they will make Iowa...
