Nebraska fans like to point out how much more talent their team has over Iowa. Every year. This is just one measure over a long period of time but what a huge disparity. And it speaks to the developmental aspect of the program. Does any team in college football do it better?

I have thought about him as a possibility too.

I too was a little concerned when Ruhle was hired. I thought he would be the one to lead them to at least the top half of the B1G consistently and maybe higher in some years. While they have earned some respect, the lack of success in November (2-10 under Ruhle) is really a buzz kill for their...

He got us two wins last year. Couldn't ask for anything more.

This is true. But Florida State was pretty borderline and I don't see that being the case for Ole Miss. But anything is possible.

There is no way they bow out of the playoffs. Too much money involved. And, I believe I read that Joe Judge would be an interim coach if Kiffin left. That may not be happening now that they've hired the DC as head coach. But I bet they cobble enough coaches together to come in for the...

Who is Lane Kiffin?

He indicated on social media that he has two years of remaining eligibility. Either way, smart move on his part. He was not going to crack our depth chart. I wouldn't be surprised to see him move to either a Group of 5 school or FCS.

Capital of Finland. It was a joke. :) It's kind of funny how butchered Hecklinski and Gronowski have been all season.

Helsinki?

As an Iowa fan I wouldn't have been that upset if they had called that targeting. It was very close and could've been called either way. But if you listen to the Nebraska fans, it's almost like that is the sole reason they lost the game. Completely took away their momentum, etc. etc. If they...

If Penn State beats Rutgers today, and they are favored by 14.5 points, they will be 6-6. Probably an attractive team for a lot of minor bowls.

Not disagreeing at all but, if he were the choice, would Beth still be waiting on an answer? He seems like the kind of guy who would say yes in about 3 seconds.

Let's see, Outland Trophy finalist? Check. Joe Moore Award candidate? Check. What is this guy even talking about!

Yep.

It's 6.5 on ESPN Bet, started at 5.5. I was surprised. I thought it would be a 2-3 point spread either way. Not sure if I have enough faith in our offense to bet Iowa. I would be ecstatic with an outright win. But I think the lines are an indication that the betting world sees our defense...

Maybe it's tough for you but to me, the B1G would still be easier. I still don't buy the Big 12 getting two teams in, at least on a regular basis. I do think Iowa has a better chance of finishing four in the B1G. And as time goes on, the money disparity becomes accumulatively less...

The Big 12 is always going to have just one team to qualify. Competing with Texas Tech and their billionaire donor would be a huge uphill climb. And they'd still have to beat out Utah and the Arizona schools. Iowa isn't winning the B1G but we could climb into a playoff spot.

I agree with all the reasons above and add one: Maybe he has realized that he has taken the Clowns as far as he ever will. And he'd like to see what would happen at a bigger place where there is more opportunity for a higher ceiling. Of course we're all just spit-balling. He seems to be...

I've been thinking that maybe Campbell is the secret candidate. Would have said no way a year or two ago but now? Nothing seems impossible. And I'd be down with that choice.
