CFB Matrix Contributor says analytics like Iowa

Gary Barnett @ NW:
1992: 3-8
1993: 2-9
1994: 3-7-1
1995: 10-2
1996: 9-3
1997: 5-7
1998: 3-9
Barnett and 2 winning seasons @NW.

Kirk Ferentz is 5-6 against Pat Fitzgerald. So, if NW hasn't surpassed Iowa, why do we have a losing record against them?

Really? Just because you beat someone doesn't mean you passed them. I guess Iowa has passed Michigan since we beat them last year.

He probably also has a losing record against Nebraska. Do you feel we have surpassed them?

How the hell do you even make such assertions? As a program, NW has not "surpassed" Iowa.

You confuse the definitions. You use Barnett's OVERALL record, but then use KFs specific record against one school/coach. Talk about "selective"...

Yeah, I don't recall NW going unbeaten in the regular season, ever. Been a while since they've been to the Rose Bowl too, or any decent bowl at all.

Fair enough, he does lose in the NC more often then not. Winning games in CFB is hard.

I'm always surprised when we come out and play without any hustle or emotion. It seems to happen a couple times a year. Don't understand it. You have 12 games....12 maybe 13 how you can come out flat in one of the first 3 always amazes me. Never could figure out why KF NEVER had the kids worked up like Gene Chizek used to. Gene couldn't beat sister's of the blind but he always made us look bad. McCarney roundly had KF beaten on the emotional side as well.
