Great Bowl

[mmills88]

Considering the current state of Iowa football, I don't think as Iowa fans that we could have asked for a better bowl against a better opponent. It's a game with tremendous upside, and little to no downside.

you said it, i cant believe we drew such a good team, but we did, now we have to play well or we will look really bad

 

[EddyP]

The team should be ecstatic about this opportunity.

Now we can feel what it's like to be Iowa State in mid-September.

I think I know what you mean, but still confused?

 

[MoseSchrute]

Not too much downside here. They will be expected to get a beat-down, and the team ought to be able to get up for Bob Stoops' OKLAHOMA SOONERS.

I've very excited for this bowl. I would have been happy with any bowl this season but the Insight is awesome.

It's on a Friday night. Only game on. Love it.

Would agree with OP great situtation playing OU, and gives Iowa a chance for a quality season ending win.

 

[CAARHawk]

Okay, here's a lesson for you fans. The whole Stoops angle plays better for old fans than young players.

I'm hoping this is a Washington vs. Nebby type scenario. I can't imagine that OU is to excited about the bowl or the opponent... Would be great for us to come in prepared and ready to play in this game for a change. Would be a huge upset for us!!

I dont know this is Stoops first game vs his alma-mater. I could see him being inspired for it.
