Biggest disadvantage in the CyHawk Series since 1980

[RedBayou]

I understand that. And ISU's will still be tougher after adding Incarnate Word too, that's my whole point. ISU isn't falling 36 spots after adding this one team, so sorry to break your bubble.

Tougher after they add IWU? Sit this one out, bud.

They went up 30 spots in the last week and my guess is that IWU is considered to be worse than SDSU.

Iowa State’s remaining schedule is only marginally more difficult than Iowa’s. The Big XII is really bad this year- nearly half of Iowa State’s conference games are against bad teams (Kansas, Kansas State, Baylor, Texas Tech).

LOL, Kansas State is a bad team now, c'mon.
Tech's better than Illinois.

Looks like Baylor plays Duke this weekend and Duke beat up NW last week, so we'll get a decent indication of how Baylor might be this year.

Turns out Purdue is garbage, and thus so is NW too. How about Nebby? Also garbage.

2017 Final Sagarin Ratings

Iowa: 18
Iowa State: 25

What was Iowa's final Sagarin rating when they went 12-0 in the regular season?

Purdue is suprising to me. I dont think their NW lost was all that bad but the next one, yikes.
I like their coach, so we'll see.

Well they do play ISU every year.

Yep, it’s the cross we bare

Kind of have to, Iowa wont leave the State for noncons anymore.

What does that have to do with last year? I think I know the answer, but I'm curious to find out. And round and round we go.

I'm curious if ISU was 25th last year how that would compare to Iowa's best season ever

45 spots better than ISU that year. Wow, thanks for pointing that out.

 

[BCClone]

Yeah, over half the 4A schools in Iowa make the playoffs since they expanded to 32 teams IIRC.

They have been at 16 now for a few years.

Relying on the transitive property with a team that just lost their starting QB and best defensive player? Lol, ok troll.

Yep, transitive property always works. Iowa beat ISU last year. ISU beat Oklahoma, so Iowa would have won the Big 12 last year.

 

[breck53]

We could have added Valley and Incarnate Word both, and then Iowa's schedule might compare somewhat equally to ours.

Fact is, even with adding Incarnate Word, our schedule is tougher than Iowa's. Iowa is so lucky to be in the extremely weak B1G West. It's a joke.

And yes, if Iowa happens to upset Wisky at home, they very well could end up in the Rose Bowl again. That's how pathetic their schedule is.

It’s funny to watch your discomfort over the Hawkeyes-you take anything for indigestion?

Me saying indication doesnt exactly mean relying upon but go ahead and insert words in.
And good call not responding to the KState portion troll.

Agreeing with benji gives you great credibility.

The trolls clocked in pretty early this morning.

Obsessed.

You didn't answer my question and we fired our coach this year so I'm surprised it wasn't more than 45 spots.

I'll ask again, what did Iowa finish in 2015?
