    Wil see you in Pasadena

    Lol. Ok. I heard all of the Iowa fans talking after last week about not wanting to play tOSU. To bad they can't put us in the same bowl and let us figure it out.

    Wil see you in Pasadena

    Hawks have 4 wins against bowl eligible teams. The losses for both teams are mutual. OSU has 6 wins against bowl eligible teams. Sagrain has OSU at 3 and Iowa at 14. I know Iowa travels but OSU does just as well, especially in Cali. It's a coin toss.

    Wil see you in Pasadena

    Who cares. As a Buckeye, if it's not the CFP, these bowls don't matter. I don't expect to see OSU and ND in the same bowl. They both draw huge, separate them to get the benefits in two different bowl games than all in 1. I think they are going to try and stick us with Houston to have a Meyer...

    Playoff or Peach, that's our fate folks

    I know they document the criteria, I just wouldn't want to get in based on that rule. Seems arbitrary to me but so is the entire system we use. Soon we will have the days of 8 teams in, 5 conf Champs and 3 at large. 1st games played at the home of the higher ranked team. I hope that day...

    Playoff or Peach, that's our fate folks

    Name calling, nice! I just offered my opinion with the facts that I have. Wasn't making excuses for them, just said that it neutralized our potency and supported their weakness. I was at the Nebraska game, I know what the conditions were like, obviously Tommy had troubles with the conditions...

    Playoff or Peach, that's our fate folks

    So you are saying your win against NW is a better win than tOSU against UM? You realize that UM beat Northwestern 38-0? Either way, you could have 2 teams sitting with the same record, so your tie breaker is "We haven't been there in a long time!" Come on, that's just silly. In the end, it...

    Playoff or Peach, that's our fate folks

    It all comes down to how you perform against MSU. tOSU was beat by 3 points in a game that was freezing cold and poured down rain the entire time. This effectively neutralized tOSU pass game and allowed MSU to cover up the fact they had a back up QB starting. If Iowa gets beat easily versus...

    Michigan Loss Big Coach of Year

    Absolutely. First off, I wouldn't consider covering the spread as a measuring stick of B1G COY. Sure, it makes for great story lines but I doubt is part of the conversation when these decisions are made. IF tOSU is undefeated at the end of the season, Meyer will be 25-0 and poised to make...

    Michigan Loss Big Coach of Year

    I would argue that if tOSU can go undefeated and win the B1G again, it really should go to Meyer BUT we all know that will not happen. Considering Kill got it last year, it's very obvious the votes go to the "surprise" coach of the year. That's not a knock on Ferentz at all, I was a huge hater...

    Does Iowa have a better chance at 12-0 than tOSU??

    Easily. Iowa's only test at this point is if Nebraska figures it out by the end of the season and I am not sold they will. Extreme lack of depth in the defense.

    Travel Planning to follow the Hawks

    Made the trip from Des Moines last year. The B1G championship is really an affordable weekend if you don't blow it all on hotels. Downtown is steep but you can get within 15 minutes for $100. The fan fest is a great all day experience that is included with your tix. We spent almost all day...
