The Okies right behind us.

Yes, for any of this to mean much the hawks need to beat Purdue and Nebby. some teams with 2 losses are still getting love from the committee.

But in case the hawks lose one or two games we want Stanford to beat Notre Dame, then stanford can lose a champ game. Baylor can beat Okie st then Okie st can beat Okie U.

Go Hawks, beat Purdue.

Its like Herbstreit said 3 different times on the show...it doesn't matter anymore where Iowa is ranked. If they win out they're in for sure.

If Iowa loses one game or even two we want a bunch of other teams to lose a certain amount because being ranked in the top 11 or 12 has some meaning with other bowl opportunities. At this point I want ohio st to win out to give MSU at least two losses and Mich at least 3 losses so the Rose Bowl would pick Iowa if need be.

Just win baby!

Yes this is best for us...beyond winning ourselves.

Sure, we need to win out to go to the playoffs, but I still like to see Iowa ranked highly.

weird that NW dropped 2 spots and Wisc did not move up.

I guess it does not matter. The winner of NW-Wisc will get a boost and loser will probably drop out after this week.

Right where we should be!!! If we continue winning we are in period!!! Let's lock up the division title Saturday, and then worry about Nebraska.

8000 tickets remain come on Hawk fans, get to Kinnick, and come on UI athletic department lower prices, or something to get 70 plus into Kinnick.

I don't trust anything these guys say anymore. If Clemson, Bama, Oky State and ND win out does Iowa get in? I think so but I just don't trust em. Heck they're now even trying to shove Oklahoma in our face.

They have blinders on when it comes to Iowa.They talk about Alabama rushing for 200 yards a game so they aren't flashy but have good defense so don't have to throw the ball.A lot of the teams they like have to fight thru injuries,what the heck have we been doing all year.I don't think they even know anything about our players which is sad.Just keep winning and please get healthy for the final stretch.Go Hawks

We are in a perfect spot...only worries we have are if we lose a game...then we will have a difficult time arguing our spot...let's not lose..it IS possible. We have almost beaten OSU with a green backup qb
