Graham Couch: Iowa Basketball is a mid-major roster

You are one of the few Iowa fans around that can actually admit that. So I guess one out of every 1000 hok fans realize that we are significantly better than the hoks in both sports.

Its ok, now you guys have the pressure of not losing the inferior team. Good luck

I'm sure KF and his snot nosed little brat of a son are spending 18 hours a day game planning for our visit to that dump in eastern iowa.

Iowa having the better football team is obvious. As far as having the better basketball team, I know you love KenPom, and Iowa was ranked more highly in KenPom. I don’t see how anyone could find that statement controversial.
How is it obvious? Iowa State was ranked higher than Iowa at the end of the year. Fact.
In basketball, Iowa State would beat Iowa 100% of the time. That's not debatable. Face it, this is a Cyclone State.

AP voters disagree

I don't love KenPom and KenPom is a predictive model not a ranking system. Derp
 
Iowa State was the better basketball team last year the problem was they didn't have everyone healthy. but when they were, ISU was better.

As far as football. I think it is a complete toss up. I imagine if they would have played 10 times each team would have won 5. That is how close I think it was. this year i think it could be the same depending on how new starters perform for each team.

We should but we play for the entire season, not one game, so anything can happen when a team is so focused on just the one game.
How do you say you are the better program and team and then back track to saying you might not win?

For the record, I’m not going to respond to anything you post (ever) because you are the most obvious troll in the history of the internet.
 
You were back to referencing the AP Poll today, the same poll that said ISU was the best team in the state last year so you're heading the right direction

We both agreed on AP for teams in the AP Top 25 and Sagarin for every team not in the AP Top 25.
