Paul Whodes to Auburn?

Pelini's name has been floated for this job. Highly unlikely he would take it, though.

Ames, Iowa would burn to the ground if Rhodes left for Auburn.

Not that it would be a bad thing.

Rhodes is simply tooooo proud to leave.

I said it in another thread but it bears repeating. Over the last 10 years the home team in the CyHawk game wins a majority of the time barring ISU beating Iowa at Kinnick in 2002 and 2012 and Iowa beating ISU in Ames in 2003 and 2009. If history would have held up this year and Iowa beats ISU they are a 5-7 team. The clown fans ran their mouths about how this was the best ISU team in years yet they were three points away from sitting at home this December. There is a hierarchy in the Big 12, and ISU will consistently stay behind KSU, OSU, OU, Texas, TCU, TTech, and WVU leaving them at best 8th in a 10 team league with certain years where they may pick off one of them like this year with TCU or last year with OSU. It would suck being Rhoads knowing that your in conference ceiling was 3-4 wins each season. He will jump ship, sooner than later I am assuming. If he gets to a school where he can consistently get good recruits he could be a major player in the coaching world, and he will never, EVER achieve that at ISWho.

I don't think they'll consistently be behind WVU, and certainly not KSU. KSU has pretty much been garbage in any season in which Snyder wasn't on the sidelines. And he can't coach forever. Hell, they sucked when they had Josh freaking Freeman under center.

LOL! So the home team wins the majority of the time... except that nearly half of the time, per your own example...it doesn't.

Hmmmm. Let me do the math...

Iowa wins at home - 2004, 2006, 2008, 2010.
Iowa losses at home - 2002, 2012
4-2 record for the home team 66% winning at home

ISU wins at home - 2005, 2007, 2011
ISU losses at home - 2003, 2009
3-2 record for the home team 60% winning at home

Maybe I'm a ******* dunce but last time I checked 66% and 60% was a majority. Correct me if I am wrong.

It works 60% of the time, every time.

And hfn has discovered that which is well known! Great job on the math(although most would have aggregated the data set then determined versus isolating)

There is no way in hell or anywhere else that the ISU to Auburn ticket gets punched again this century.

Sorry, Rah Rah. You're stuck in cow town.

Point is, in the Rhoads era, the Iowa game is usually the X factor. Beat Iowa, go to a bowl. Lose to Iowa, stay home. He defied it in 2009 however since then its been pretty accurate. 2010, lose to Iowa, went 5-7. 2011, beat Iowa, 6-6. 2012, beat Iowa, 6-6. ISU relies on beating Iowa to go bowling. Plain and simple.

The pre-season is critical as the in conference record has been below .500

Bo or Carl?

The one with the big nose and inability to control his temper...
