Iowa vs Michigan. Alternate game vs BIG championship.

The original idea for this weekend was a great idea,2 vs 2, 3 vs 3 etc... that went out the window when they altered the plan to protect the bowl positioning of teams like Indiana and Iowa. Hawks/Hoosiers would have been a really good game but the b1g is going to crazy measures to ensure make up for the lost revenue caused by their terrible decision to cancel the prematurely cancel the season.
 
Yep, Alvarez really screwed Iowa over here. Iowa needed to play Indiana for basically a play-in game for a NY6 bowl. Now Iowa doesn't get that chance because Alvarez wanted Wisconsin to play Minnesota and the dominos fell from there. Sucks.
Bull****. Iowa will (undeservedly) climb in the rankings again this week. Beating an absolute garbage Michigan team will likely put them near the Top 10 (maybe even in the Top 10, if some unexpected teams lose). This was a power play by the B1G to try to steal two NY6 spots on top of the undeserved Playoff spot.

The positive about Iowa in a NY6 bowl is they would get smoked
 
I just don't get why the trolls have so much trouble understanding the purpose of the ISR forums. It is for us (on our website) to talk about (and laugh at) our in-state rivals. Idiot trolls seem to think it was set up as a place for them to be welcomed to post.

Because that is exactly what we would do. Set up a section of OUR team's website forum specifically because we want to hear what our most idiotic and heated rivals have to say about anything.
 
Do you ever think about how odd it is you post on Cyclone Fanatic?

Your moronic to rational post ratio has to be 35:1 or 40:1, at least

So you don't think it's weird? You never answered so I couldn't tell.
 
Looks like Iowa is catching some breaks if this matchup gets played.

 
I wouldn't be surprised if this game doesn't happen. Will see. No-win situation for Iowa.

This is the way I see both the Iowa vs MI and the IN vs Purdue game. If Iowa or IN win, they beat another 2 win team. They are both playing teams, that at time have shown some sort of life, and MI certainly has better players than most 2 win teams. Losing those games would be a disaster for the Big 10.

I think they were throwing Indiana a bone because they screwed them out of the Championship game. I honestly didn't care if the Hawks got Ohio St or Indiana, just wanted one of them.
