Question for Iowa fans

[CyTwins]

88.5% of Iowa's appearances on gameday have not involved ISU.

78.7% of Iowa fans would rather beat Iowa State than win the West

 

[CyTwins]

It will probably be Pollard at the end of the day.

He has the credentials as reigning AD of the Year but I don't think it'll be him

 

[Doc]

Poll is really telling how important this gameday is for the majority of Hawk fans.

Yeah, they talk a big game, but it's nice they let us know how they really feel with this poll. Probably just can't admit to the other hawk fans on here what game is most important to them.

Wait is CyTwins actually Nate Silver?

 

[Statefan10]

I could see that. Dan's a good guy and would no doubt pick the Clones.

I would highly doubt any school would bring in someone that would pick against the school being highlighted.

Wisconsin is the biggest game on the schedule in my book.

I would rank them as this:

Wisconsin
Northwestern
Purdue
Michigan
PSU
Minnesota
Nebraska
Illinois
Rutgers
ISU
Miami of Ohio
MTSU

Ahh yes the old go to a rivals site to tell them how little we care about them idea. That'll show em'.

 

[Statefan10]

You mean ISU's most successful coach of all time that had a career record of 56-85?

He's a really good person and knows the Iowa State-Iowa rivalry very well.

Are you and other Hawk fans alright? I'm being dead serious.. All of this exposure Iowa State has gotten lately seems to be taking an emotional toll on you guys.

Not sure what the big hangup is for fans on both sides on admitting it's a big game. It's a big game that is good for either team if it wins. If you told me right now that Iowa could only beat either Iowa State or Wisconsin, not both, then I'm taking @Wisconsin since that greatly increases Iowa's chances of winning the West. But we don't live in a binary world.

Yet 75% of your fan base disagrees with you.

Your insecurities are showing in this post. Don’t be so embarrassed 3/4 of your fan base views the Iowa State game #1.

Barta will never get rid of the ISU game

You are right. It's their only chance for a sell-out.

Wisconsin would boatrace Iowa if they played this weekend. Just a feeling

A agree. Likely still will in November.

 

[mattyheiden]

Badgers might be a top 10 team if they stay healthy. Iowa can beat them though but need to execute way better than they did last fall

 

[CyTwins]

73.3% of Iowa fans would rather beat Iowa State than win the West. Wow

Crazy how important a rivalry is to that fan base.

 

[SECyclone]

Crazy how important a rivalry is to that fan base.

Well they did start calling it the Super Bowl

 

[dexterhawk]

So you'd rather beat Michigan than Iowa State? I find that hard to believe

I’d rather beat both actually

 

[dexterhawk]

You're in the minority. Currently 76.9% of Iowa fans would rather beat Iowa State than win the West

Actually it shows 76.9% of cyclone fans would rather have Iowa beat Michigan than win the west. Seems reasonable
