It’s amazing people still need to be convinced. Take off any bias glasses. The SEC has 6 different teams with 15 national titles while the big 10 has 2 from 1 team in the same time frame. NFL draft every year is SEC players more than any other conference. These are numerical facts. As Iowa...

Played 3 ranked teams all year and scored 0 in each game. Playing such a weak schedule in the west division creates a false sense in the program and the athletic department. Iowa is never as good as we think they are or the media thinks they are. Most of Iowa wins are against very poor...

The opt outs and transfers causing teams to bring 50-60 scholarship players to a bowl game has caused this. I realize your favorite team won one of these bowl games and you need it to matter so you’ve talked yourself into it but to the college football world they don’t mean a thing. I hate what...

In the current system 2 bowl games matter and the big 10 lost both. To brag about winning what are now worthless pointless bowl games is what we make fun of clone fans for doing and being.

From last years LSU-Kansas State bowl game... LSU has just 39 scholarship players available with zero scholarship quarterbacks among them.

I read an article that said Florida was without 26 scholarship players for their game Saturday. Gatorcountry.com was the twitter site. Covers Florida football.

I admit I am the grumpy old man but until a mass number of people stop watching these pointless, worthless bowl games and stop watching games or going to games not one thing will change. I realize none of this will happen so old grumpy people like me just need to find something else to care...

This message boards obsession with the SEC gets old. Just worry about Iowa. This thread became more than stupid as their runner up beat our conference champ silly. Then they beat us and Arkansas runs all over Penn State. This obsession is like a little brother syndrome that we make fun of...

Iowa had two conference wins against teams with winning records. (Maryland was .500) This team benefited from an easy draw from the 3 east division teams. One had a winning record, 7-5 Penn State. We in no way were a top 10 team at any point of this season. At some point we need to realize...

As Hawk fans we get very hurt and very defensive when any national figure dare call our team out. Cowherd called us the Fake IDs and the Rose bowl proved him right. Corso says this today and he was right. We make fun of Clone fans of being little brother but a lot of us in Hawk nation have...

Nebraska pitchers were very good against Arkansas for 2 2/3 games. It really wasn’t until the end of Monday nights game that Arkansas got the better of Husker pitchers. Even in the Saturday night game they lost Nebraska pitchers were effective. Giving up 15 hits in 3 games to one of the...

RPI is 89. I’m guessing that isn’t going to get us into the 64 team tourney. Can’t play an only big 10 schedule and think that will be enough.

Needed to play out of conference games and win them. Big 10 only schedule won’t impress the committee.

There is no post season big 10 baseball tournament this year. Nebraska gets the automatic bid for being regular season champs.

I said not our fault.

This is a point that is missed a lot. You have to play winning teams and you have to beat some of them. We played one team w a winning record this season and lost to them. If we win the bowl game Mizzou is 5-6 another losing team on the schedule. Not our fault, I get that, but people around...

I hear a lot of people on this board and other Hawkeye boards talk about other conferences only playing 8 conference games and the Big 10 playing 9 and they say it’s unfair. I guess in the future we can’t complain about other conferences playing less games if they are okay w Ohio State getting...

Ohio State played 6 games. For me that’s the end of the discussion. They never put themselves out there to be challenged to maybe lose. No injuries no wear and tear. If A&M was undefeated because they canceled their game against Bama would you put them in?

And would be nice to play a team out of conference not from the MAC or Iowa State. We haven’t played a huge out of conference national attention game since Miami in the early 90s.

I read somewhere that the SEC has had the most players drafted every year since 2007. Last night the first round by the SEC we will never see that again. 15 first rounders (from 6 different schools) will never be topped. First round the NFL wants the elite DB, DE, DT, WR, and obviously OT with...
