Will there be a meltdown if we lose to Rutgers?





Sure. There was a meltdown when we lost by 3, via a 55 yard field goal, on the road, to the 16th ranked team in the country. This is a game Iowa should win, but a conference road game is a conference road game. The meltdown for me is that it would be sad to know this is a lost season 4 games in. If we lose this one, 7-5 is the ceiling.
 




Oh I'm sure by others it would. We are only a 2 pt fav I think. I won't be blowing any gaskets if we lose a close game. It'd just be more confirmation that we aren't as good as the media tried saying we'd be. I haven't seen anything yet that tells me we can win road games in the BIG against a decent team. I took nothing from the UMass game. They may as well of played a HS team.

Now if Iowa loses by say 10 plus and looks bad doing it then yeah I would probably pile on with some of the pitchfork holders. That would be inexcusable. It just all depends how the game goes as much as the outcome.
