I believe Rob warned everyone this might happen since they were all allowed to go home.

Not really shocked by this. Add any cornball cliche you want, this game wasn't meant to be played...end-of-story.

I suppose it makes sense. Buddy of mine with son on the team fired off pics of his cowboy boots he was taking this morning. He usually knows whats going on...but breaking news is breaking news....

Brandon Smith declared for draft

Missouri is officially out...bowl was cancelled...and then...just in....Music City Bowl is actively looking for a replacement team to play Iowa.

 

[HaydenHawk56]

Missouri does it to Iowa again....they are afraid of us....LOL.

I'm having problems with the website so MSN is saying game is off.

No fucking reason to play this game at this point.

Iowa will not seek an alternative opponent.

Duh

Missouri never intended to play in a bowl game from the get-go. It was totally selfish to accept a bid knowing they weren’t going to play. By doing this, they cheated the Hawks.

Missouri needs to be banned from playing in any bowl for the next 4 years.

and forfeit.. Missouri made the decision not to play when they sent their players home.

Duh

Didn't people call you an asshole like 3 days when you called this?

 

[Scotttyd]

so no way they will do it - but even if we wanted (and you can argue it would show messed up priorities), are there any teams out there that would even be available? Haven't every team that wasn't playing in a bowl shot down for the season? The only way it would work is if another bowl was cancelled for in the same manner and they decided to play each other

Let's be clear, Fry was calling it because he didn't think IOWA would be able to play. He was still wrong, Missouri is the reason why the game will not happen.

Show me state should now be called “No Show.”

They call me that for a bunch of reasons, but yep.

No need to get all mixed up in the details.

Sneaky plan by Mizzou to get out of a thumping that would make their season below .500. Send your players home to catch COVID and VD from their high school girlfriends. Very cunning.
