Iowa Football Recruiting

What about 2010?

2010 was a 8 win season Iowa. Where would that rank for mighty isu in terms of historic teams? Yep that year we beat the #12 team in the country from the so called mighty Big 12 in a bowl game. No the season didn't live up to expectations but more often than not, as I have shown KF does much better with expectations than isu fans can possibly see because that isn't on the pre-approved isu propoganda list.

Must be nice to play in a weak conference!
 
34 - I spent 7 years at Iowa (not 1) and have had season tickets since 1988 (so been to more than 10 games). And before GTO or 34 chimes in on 7 years and attempts to equate that to my lack of intelligence or motivation, that was a 4 year double major business degree and a law degree that takes 3 years. Nice attempt at an insult though.
 
Everyone expects isu to be bad each year. Which is why they are tied with FCS Furman as the #83 ranked program of all time on the AP. Congrats on meeting or exceeding those expectations.

You mean it must suck to play in a conference that has more top ten finishes and NFL draft picks than the Big 12.

That's right those data points are not on the pre-approved isu propoganda list so cy twins won't acknowledge them.

If the Big Ten is better why did ISU have one of the toughest schedules in the country last year and Iowa had one of the easiest?

When you are as bad as isu, every game you play is difficult because you don't get to count a win against isu. So again when will your SOS ever translate into the Big 12 having more top ten finishes than the Big 10?

That doesn't even make sense

Sure it does. Aren't you trying to argue that the Big 12 has better teams than the Big 10 and that is why isu has such a tough schedule?

I am saying if the Big 12 truly has more quality teams then why don't they have more top ten finishes than Big 10 to show for it? This is the falicy of your SOS argument.

Who had a tougher conference schedule last year, Iowa or Iowa State?

Which conference ended up with more top ten finishes the Big 10 or Big 12?

When you are bad as isu, the MVC would have been a more difficult schedule for you last year.
 
So tell which conference had more teams finish in the top ten. Then we will know which conference is better.

You're truly an idiot. Not even the dumbest Iowa fans say they had a tougher conference schedule last year than the Big 12 teams but there's always one
 
Just stop Historic. Apparently the Big 12 is the tougher conference. And ISU had a tougher schedule. So tough in fact that ISU shellacked a Texas team that beat Oklahoma. But I will probably agree ISU had a tougher conference schedule but to say the Big 12 is a better conference is beyond moronic. To say otherwise ignores every objective measure of comparison. The sad thing is the Big 12 is only going to get markedly worse. Texas is off the rails, KSU will be going south hard without their former Hawkeye assistant coach leading them, and Baylor may as well have the death penalty.

Apparently? Probably agree? I can't believe there are two of you this dumb. What objective measure of comparison are you using? Not all of them support your stupid idea considering Sagarin.com ranked the Big 12 ahead of the Big 10 last season
 
Ok Twins I agree on the ISU vs Iowa schedule. I conceded that. But conference comparison is not close and only going to get worse. Unless New Mexico and UCONN have cache I was unaware of previously. My God mate, read the fan and analyst reaction. Texas and Oklahoma are only staying in the Big 12 due to the easy schedule. Jeepers Twins, look at the landscape.
