NO! STOP THE MADNESS! STOP IT NOW!!!!

Beat a few teams first ranked 150 or lower before even beginning to think whether Iowa is underrated.

That is all. Thanks for listening.

Hey Law - did you check out the coaches poll and celebrate the Hawks being ranked yet?

 

[IowaFan81]

No. They are ranked and there's a team right now who isn't ranked that will be ranked. Unless they think Iowa will win it all.

You can be ranked, and be underrated without having to win it all.

Yes but can you be unranked and overratted without having to lose at all?

Polls and opinions are fun to talk about, but it all comes out in the wash. We shall see what transpires as the season unfolds. I for one expect great things from this group of players. That's my opinion and I am sticking to it.

Talking about who's underrated/overrated is just an easy way to write an article when you have to write articles all the time for a website that features nothing but talk of sports. It really means nothing at all.

 

[bcl20]

Though, I suppose it gives exposure to underexposed teams which is cool I guess.

Exactly this.

That article was written by Bruce Pearl. Well, may as well turn off the television, boys and girls, and tune in next season. We're screwed now.

But doesn't ESPN hate Iowa?

If you want to call 25th in one poll and "also receiving votes" in the rest as "ranked," go ahead. I can't help you. Think I'll wait until Iowa climbs into the other polls and has some quality wins before I feel totally frantastic. But I like where the program is headed.

 

[bcl20]

25th in the polls is ranked you *******.

I've been in the business a long time, and this is exactly what we call it.

 

[bcl20]

How the **** do you mess up facts?

 

[clicheusername3]

We're becoming underrated to the point of overrated.

Fran and the boys appreciate you giving your blessing even though half-heartedly.

just don't put the Hawks on any sort of sports magazine cover as I recall all too painfully well how that worked out for the football team a couple of years back
