Ferentz's Emphasis on the ISU Game
- Thread starter CyTwins
- Start date
Even Breck who's a moron said ISU was handicapped going into the Iowa game. You are trying too hard
Who knows, it was @CyTwins who said we would lose two more games. I am worried about the Purdue game though.
You mentioned two losses to top ten teams though, so don't say Twins said that, it was you.
Breck was unaware of just how bad an OC CMC was. If he knew CMC was that bad, he would have said ISU's handicap was CMC calling plays.
Ok, I guess I can easily see Iowa losing to Penn St is all, and Wisconsin will be a top 10 team at the end of the year. Wouldn't shock me at all to see Iowa lose @Purdue or drop some other game they shouldn't.
I also said missing the first game was a disadvantage, but that was before I knew how bad CMC was at calling plays. If I would have known that, then being his first game is actually an advantage for ISU.
Am I doing it right?
Wow, just looked at the schedules. Wisconsin has the 11 and 15 ranked teams they have to play (whole season) and Iowa has 11 and 16.
So the big ten championship game will be OSU versus a 7-2 conference record and 9-3 overall team probably? Big ten will make sure that OSU crushes whomever to get in the semis. Iowa may want to get second in the west to get a better bowl.
But it wasn't a disadvantage at all. I only said that BEFORE I knew how bad CMC was at calling plays. Turns out it was a total advantage for ISU
Eastern Michigan won there but you wouldn't be shocked to see Iowa not win there?
Wouldn't be happy, but wouldn't be shocked. Iowa has a tendency to drop a game to a horrible team every year. It is usually ISU they lose to, but I could see them lose to Purdue.
Probably his biggest black eye at Iowa IMO. We beat a lot of teams that we are big underdogs to, and we drop games where we are big favorites.
For my info, has dudeman appeared or did he decide on a different name since we caught that one?
Kirk's leapfrogging. A stats guy on CR analyzed many years of Kirk's data and found a very consistent pattern of leapfrogging opponents.
