Brock Purdy is the most clutch player in the state of Iowa's history

NW probably, Iowa would be pretty close.

So what you suggest is to sneak up on a better ranking by playing sub.500 teams, that is an easier path to top 15?

I think will stay with the big payoff/big reward games. A lot more fun when all of CFB is watching you than sneaking into the top 15.

I wish Iowa got to play Indiana and move up, and I wish Iowa got to face another top 10 team in a bowl. Unfortunately that didn’t happen and honestly no Big10 team should be crying, our conference did this to us, this is all we deserve. Doesn’t mean I’m happy about it, but this is the bed they made.

meh.......maybe but I'd say they are pretty comparable to Penn St

A ranked Oregon team = a team receiving zero votes? Lol

I think you nailed it.

Yeah Penn St is a good comp for Oregon. Pretending the Pac12 was any better than the Big10 this year is just dumb. Both conferences screwed themselves.

Pretending Oregon is better than Penn State? He was joking. Oregon would be the second best team you guys would have faced behind Northwestern

Oregon should be 3-2 and in a crappy bowl, they aren’t good, they are Penn St level at best.

Why should they be 3-2? Not their fault Washington had issues

Penn State is awful. Troll elsewhere

I don't think they should be even in a crappy bowl. NCAA should have just said put the kabash on the Pac 12 even attempting to play this year. It's a joke. I'd rather be playing Mizzou tbh

The Pac12 should have declared USC Pac12 champs, not put a team out there who didn’t earn it on the field.

You realize Oregon beat USC right?

ISU is going to wax Oregon. Awful matchup for a NY6 game.

ISU 38
Oregon 21

Oregon is the Pac 12 Champ by winning the Pac 12 Championship Game. CC and ULL are co-champs of the Sun Belt because their championship game got cancelled even though CC had a better record and beat ULL in the regular season. You have to win the conference championship game to win the conference.

You do realize Oregon didn’t even win their division, right? What would you have thought of Northwestern canceled VS OSU and Iowa took their place? You think that would have been “deserved”?

Don't think it will even be that close.

ISU 48
Oregon 13

Washington cancelled on them

I would have been fine with it

National perception of ISU beating Oregon is 100X greater than ISU beating Iowa, no matter how down Oregon is.

I know that are “conference champs”, they just aren’t the Pac12 North division champs. Oregon doesn’t deserve a NY6 bowl.

lol, did you keep a straight face as you posted this?

He doesn’t watch football apparently.

You think Iowa State fans would have been upset Iowa had to play a good team? They would have gotten destroyed vs Ohio State
