that would be a division title, no? I don't think anyone thought ISU was beating Vince Young's Texas team.

Your larger fan base is awesome. I love traveling back to northeast Iowa, visiting my family, and hearing nonstop banter from the people I know in that area that are all Hawkeye fans. They're apart of the fan base you're speaking of...the ones that barely graduated high school, have ZERO affiliation with the University except for living in the same state, and are all apart of the fire Ferentz train when your team is losing followed quickly by turning back to saying best coach ever when you're winning. And this isn't just Northeast Iowa. This is everywhere I go when I'm back, and everywhere I've lived across the country. I always run into Iowa fans that...go figure..never went to the University of Iowa but routinely tell me to F*** Off just because I'm wearing an ISU shirt. A large % of your fan base is sh** and you shouldn't be proud of it.

When's the last time we sniffed anything close to a conference title. I can't even remember. Let's go out and win the Big 12 this year boys!!

This game likely won't go anywhere.
Both teams need a P5 team for the non-conference. The whole state enjoys the game.
If one athletic director decided to opt out, the outcry would probably prompt the legislature to make sure it doesn't happen.
Is this a Hipster way of thinking, like being ****** when your favorite band goes from playing night clubs to arenas? Like you'd rather have them not be successful so you can still claim you like them. Or is it more of a jealous type of thinking?
You may not like the non alumni fan and I'd rathe they not be ********, but this type of fan is what ISU needs more of, the fans who never went to ISU. And it would be even better if we started attracting fans who never even lived in Iowa. ****, when I was growing up in Iowa I saw all kinds of kids with Duke stuff, North Carolina, Miami, FSU, I'll bet you anything none of them ever went to school there. I used to work with a guy, who during the NCAA tournament, would dress head to toe in all UNC gear. He'd never even been to one of their games in person, let alone go to school there. It would be awesome for ISU's bottom line to have that kind of reach in it's fanbase.
Shhh. True fans know that the only true fans went to the school they cheer for. Alumni are the only persons qualified to go to a game, buy merchandise or even watch the games on TV. Perhaps immediately family of alumni are okay, but only in special circumstances. They Cyclones have figured out the correct model for building a fan base. Eventually the rest of the world will catch on.

The question was when was the last time we sniffed anything close to a conference title. I think 2004 and 2005 would qualify as sniffy something close to a conference title.
I'm not sure about that but he was obviously just trolling so I feel a little dirty even getting involved. How about them Cubs!
This coming from the guy that trash talks Chris Williams on twitter. Rich.The problem isn't non-alumni being fans. The problem is most of the non-alumni hawk fans are uneducated trash. You can have 'em.
How about we try talking about the topic of the actual game thats being played...matchups etc? You know...football stuff.
Warren, Lazard, Tucker > any Iowa players at those positions
Everything else Iowa has the advantage.
There matchups are done.

There is discussion here. Saying Lazard is better than King is VERY debatable.
I know you're saying vs Iowa wrs but Lazard doesnt line up against them. Thats not how the game is played. And Tucker is not clearly better than Johnson either.
Johnson >>>> Tucker.
Actually it's not debatable. Lazard did nothing when he lined up against King last year.
1912.
Tucker was second team AP all conference, Johnson was Honorable Mention. Tucker was Defensive newcomer of the year.
Tucker had more TFL and sacks last year than Johnson has in his entire career.
