unhappy with this season ? whine here

[teachercoach]

Winning games is good, losing games is bad. HOW we do both is the frustration at times.

Any bowl win will be great. A bowl win isn't going to suddenly make an average season good, and it certainly won't erase the PU, NW, or Wiscy stinkers.

but ANY bowl loss is gonna be damaging for both perception, confidence, and likely recruiting.

Win the bowl.

Agree! When is last time Iowa finished season winning consecutive games?

Also - has Iowa ever had a schedule where 9/12 opponents were bowl teams?

The bad part of that is 3 of those teams are in West division.
