“I’d feel better……”

Well as Iowa fans we shouldn’t be fretting over a win or loss here or there. It’s not like we are Alabama and we’re expected to compete for a National Title every other season. In fact we are never expected to compete for a national title. That’s the truth. It’s been accepted in Hawkeye land.

We should be happy that we manage to meet most Iowa fans expectations almost every season. Isn’t 7-5 the mark? Technically 7.5 wins and 4.5 losses. Anything better than that is gravy.

So relax and enjoy the games. Win or lose enjoy the good times when they happen and expect the bad times when they happen. That is Iowa football as we have known it under Hayden and Kirk. To expect anything else is over exuberance and causes frustration. However you never know as we don’t have Ohio State and Michigan on the regular schedule this year…………… hmmmm didn’t that happen in 2015? I’m not saying, but I am just saying.

Since Harbaugh arrived in 2015 his record at Michigan is 49-22.

James Franklin at Penn State since 2015 is 53-22.

They are 3-3 in head to head and have similar bowl records.

Almost dead even.

Dang didn't know that... Both seem to have been on the hot seat of sorts and rumored to be moving on but yet they are both still there.

This falls in line with the comments on a recent podcast about realignment where it was said that Ohio State is really the only team in our conference that is a regular contender for a national title.

In some ways the mighty have been knocked down a notch from their formal elite status. Nebraska, Michigan, Penn State, and even Notre Dame. This I would say has benefited other teams in the region as far as recruiting. Once upon a time those were perennial powers.
