Regardless....we are rooting for Wisconsin tonight right?

Never let facts get in the way. It doesn't fit his angle.
I expect wisky to lose by double digits to psu
Going to be tough to top the 38-35 Illinois Penn State game from a few years ago.
I believe you mean the Wisky-PSU game in BTT 2 years ago. It was 36-33.
Nope, meant this game, was off by 2 on the score though.

That's a good point, but they still are almost always the teams involved.
dw.....how would you describe the phenomena?
You do realize Iowa is 4th in the conference in scoring, right?
Penn St, Northwestern, Nebraska, Illinois and Ohio St all have just as many if not more scoring droughts than Iowa.

Again and again and again and again and again. Iowa had maybe the weakest B1G schedule. Most of those long scoring droughts teams you mention involve games with those teams involved Iowa or WI. You left out MN.
I wasn't mentioning Iowa's scoring droughts. The comment was that Iowa/Wis were often involved.
And regardless of the officiating gripers, Iowa I'm guessing is a leader in scoring ft's.

Repost the exact parameters of the bet! If my failing memory is correct neither of us will likely win.

I will always root for whatever helps Iowa - anything else is just childishness

A 9-9 record with 1 win in the conference tournament and Iowa is considered a bubble team. The loser takes a weeks vacation from this forum. If Iowa wins tomorrow I am a lock to win this bet since Iowa is already considered a bubble team with a 8-9 conference record.

I think Iowa has to win 2 (technically) but you are almost certainly the winner. It's unfortunate that the vacation week wasn't clearly defined in the original bet. Smile!

To be a lock for the tournament, yes, but the bet was not if they would get in or not the bet was if Iowa would be a bubble team. Honestly I should have already won this bet since they are already a bubble team and there is no way winning tomorrow knocks them off the bubble.
Iowa's conference SOS is currently 8th in the B10, ahead of Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, and Michigan. So once again, you're wrong.

This sounds like a recipe for disagreement. A bubble team according to whom? The BTN called Iowa "on the bubble to get on the bubble."

"cheer" is a strong word - I guess I hope(d) they'd win - cheer or really watch and fist pump or anything, not really.
MSU has destroyes us much worse than wisconsin over the years...
These I hate this team beacuase or this team because...
I'm fine with it.... but ya it's childish...
It's cool and all but really in the end I just care about Iowa and what gets them ahead.
