I wonder if people will realize that we lost to Drake back in the 99-00 season too... and how'd that season turn out?
I really hope this is sarcasm. There have been 500 threads made in the last 18 hours about the same thing.
This team has nobody near the level of Tinsley, Fizer, or Horton.
Hok posters that are p!ssy about losing to ISU in football alway refer to "national perception".
Please place all future "don't play Drake" thoughts in national perceptions terms.
Hint: The national perception of UI-ISU football and ISU-Drake basketball is identical.

He didn't say we should stop playing Drake. He said we should stop playing AT Drake and I agree. Why are we giving them a home game?
It's unfair we have to play "motivated" mid-major teams. That means we have to get motivated too, and that's just not fair.
It's unfair when we can't win in their gyms. It's unfair that we have much better "talent," but somehow, we don't win. We then must also take Northern Colorado, Prairie View, Lipscomb, UNI, Western Carolina off our schedule because we might lose to them, too.
Waaaaaahhh. Waaaaaahh. I've never seen such a collection of loser excuses.

We were saying yesterday when everyone thought we would win big, that we should change it. This isnt a 'we're ****** that we lost' thing, its a 'why are we doing something most other major schools dont' thing.
Some people on here are such conformist its ridiculous. We cant do anything unless some other big name school out there does it as well. Its something that makes Iowa unique, and its been a tradition for as long as I can remember. Our first road game each year is usually at UNI or Drake...a road game very close to home, and IMO, thats a good thing.

Mizzou plays AT Old Dominion this year
Wisconsin play AT UW Milwaukee
Mich. State plays AT Eastern Michigan
Indiana plays AT Evansville
Okla. State plays AT Missouri State
Tex. Tech plays AT aTm Corpus Christi
I actually thought Bubu played the best D of anyone on our team, so i wouldn't call it a waste.
Mizzou- 2 for 1 (played at mizzou last 2 years)
Wisconsin- not a home and home. More like a 3x at madison, 1x at milwaukee situation
Michigan state- not a regular series.
Indiana- not a regular series
OSU- not a regular series
Texas tech- 2 for 1. (played at TTU the last 2 years)
Care to play again?
And even then, how many have two of these regular series set up, like we do with Drake and UNI?

Home or away, it doesn't matter. We have no business losing to Drake. We can't be having that. It's uncalled for.
