Iowa Football Recruiting

[Stewo]

i think it's a worthy experiment. Let's see what the answer is.

I'll even write the paper.

 

[TRYHARDER]

Are we including the one we already have from the Iowa forfeit?

Might not be a bad idea. The streak had to end eventually I guess.

 

[CyTwins]

If you guys beat Ball St and somehow manage to reach the elusive 9 win mark, does it come with an * ?

You realize you forfeited right?

 

[TRYHARDER]

We will still have a much harder schedule than you did when you went to the Rose Bowl, so no.

We did beat a pretty scrappy ISU team that year.

 

[TRYHARDER]

You realize you forfeited right?

You realize I just said count the win, the streak is over right? Campbell picks up his first CyHawk win. I'm sure they'll box up the trophy and send it over.

So Iowa is likely going to play Maryland or Indiana on the other side right? They're already playing PSU, OSU, and MSU. They just played Rutgers and Michigan, so one can assume they're not scheduling them again this year?

We were atrocious but still found a way to be in the game I guess. Payback for the last second field goal in Kinnick the year before.

I meant Illinois State. LOL Sorry, just having fun with you.

I'm guessing it will be Maryland. They have 5 home games already so it would balance it out.

It was going to be a pretty easy win regardless. New coach, new QB and poor defense

I had the opportunity to be at that Rose Bowl. After McCaffery's first couple of series the field was covered with black and gold jockstraps.

 

[SouthernCy]

I think it's pretty obvious to anyone objective that Iowa is stacked at TE with elite freshman talent. Not sure why you're arguing, you can be pretty reasonable much of the time.

I disagree with this

If it helps you sleep at night go ahead and run with it. Should be a magical season for you guys.

 

[SouthernCy]

the best TE in the NFL is an Iowa guy.

Absolutely agree

No arguments there. He does that to guys on Sunday now. He's incredible.

It's hard to get pissed at guys that play unbelievable against your team in college and then do the same thing in the pros.

Saquon Barkley is another that comes to mind. He just always brings it. Great guy and great player. And I hate the Giants too.

This is set up to be a very strong team in Ames

 

[Statefan10]

So here's Iowa's schedule with Maryland added in at the end (don't care when they actually play):

@ Minnesota
vs. Michigan State
@ Ohio State
@ Penn State
vs. Northwestern
vs. Illinois
vs. Nebraska
@ Purdue
vs. Wisconsin
vs. Maryland

Realistically.. Iowa goes 6-4 there with the losses coming to Minnesota, Ohio State, Penn State and Wisconsin.

And Fant and Hockson have?

Njoku has been in the league for 5 seasons and Fant and TJ have been in for only a season. They still have time to prove themselves.
