So iowa beats iowa state who beats Texas who beat Oklahoma.
I expect Oklahoma to be ranked ahead of iowa this week because logic
Texas has a talent pool equal to or greater than any place in the country. They should be top 5 every year yet they play like this. Good for ISU though.
Transitive property puts Iowa in the playoffs ahead of Oklahoma. I hope you're listening ESecPN.
this was a big emotional play by paw - ala 'superbowl'..'us against the world'......'everyone has counted us out'.......expect them to be more than flat in their coming game.
They haven't recruited well (for Texas) since 2012.

2012 - #2 (3.64) 2 5star, 15 4star
They will probably get waxed the next 4 games they have so it doesnt matter that they just beat one of the worst Texas teams of all time. I still think Paw gets another year because #1. Pollard is cheap and wont fire him and pay for a new coach and #2 with so many openings who in there right mind would want to coach at that dumpster fire?

Don't worry. Paul and Jamie are already figuring out ways to sell another season with CPR at the helm. It appears Cyclone fans are eating it up already. That fan base's lack of intelligence never ceases to amaze me. I'm not surprised at all that a win over a horrible Texas team has already convinced some of them to claim they would have beat an undefeated Iowa team had Lanning been the QB. That will be their argument all off-season. They were really the better team and Iowa went undefeated only because of their weak schedule. Just wait for it.
So Des Moines news all week will be isu, the offense is back, all they needed was this qb and now they are good at foozeball, championships just around the corner, clown state, yadda yadda yadda. All week all we will here about is the 3 and whatever dill holes, followed by 30 seconds of the 8-0 Hawks as they go to commercial. Also in Iowa city...
