Iowa a joke at 1-10
Nebraska and Colorado ranked in the Top 3.
Oh, the times they are a chang . . . oh, wait. I already did that Bob Dylan wordplay.

I agree and I think we are on the verge of a very productive period in Hawkeye Football. As far as this being a once in a lifetime season? As a 50 year old fan I have seen several "once in a lifetime seasons." 1980, 1985, 2002. Let's not forget the run we had under Stanzi. These were all great seasons and many of them unexpected. How far can This Team go??? Time will tell and we can only hope that the ceiling for this team is very high. I also believe that we are in for more great seasons ahead. Go Hawks!!!

If you're referring to OSU/MSU/IA all finishing in the Top 4. I kinda intentionally missed it.

1958 was the "once in a lifetime" season for me. As a kid, it was fabulous listening to the Hawks on the radio as they laid legitimate claim to the national title after the 59' Rose Bowl win. What a team, what a year!

2002-2004, 2009 were great. I enjoyed every minute of those seasons and enjoying every bit of this one. Can't wait for Saturday. We're back in black you son of a *******
1956 was great too with a roes bowl win. nothing like listening to Z call the games Saturdays. I guess this makes us old but we still enjoy the hawks.
NOW JUST KEEP WINNING
