8-4? Why all the hawkeyes I know say that 3 losses should disqualify a team. I guess they don’t count that bowl game then.
I cheated, sorta. That's their record after UW blew them out of the stadium. 8-3 going into the game including their loss to ISU.
Yeah, it is funny though that we have the same record as they did and they say 3 losses should keep us out.
I'm kind of torn. It's somewhat of a lose-lose scenario. How good/bad is Oregon? Not sure anyone knows. If we win, great and all, but this is a team that played 5 scrimmages and was only in their conference championship because someone else had to back out. Yes, I know, they won. Their level of pathetic season is worse than what we make fun of Iowa for. So, if we lose, that's embarrassing in a way, and undermines everything we've done this year. Just f***ing win, please.
What many don't seem to remember is what they were like at age 14-19. HS kids think Oregon has been a great team forever, (5-10 years if forever at that age), so by beating them, it is a bigger boost to the HS recruit than Northwestern or Indiana. It's name for HS kids and short attention span. Oregon is a nice team to be playing for recruiting.
Iowa wasn't an at large bid, they were an automatic qualifier for that bowl by winning the conference. Big difference. Much like Oregon is an automatic qualifier for being the Pac 12 Champ.
It is embarrassing any Pac12 teams made a NY6 bowl, no Pac12 team deserved that at all.
I can kind of get behind that. Still though, they were fortunate to even be playing for a Pac "Championship" I think it's dumb that they even consider them champions.
The ones yammering on the wife's facebook or on the street just say no 3 loss team. They don't exclude autos. You are now trying to justify why it was ok for Iowa. Worse yet, that didn't include a CCG. That was straight up 3 losses during the regular season.
I sided with the championship thing at first, then when I heard it was Washington that cancelled the H to H matchup with them, I go back and forth. I don't care for a team to cancel a game with the second place team and that protects you from losing the championship.
Wow that is really breaking hard hitting news. You have the best sources.
Oregon definitely beatable. ISU would get beaten badly by UF. No idea on Cinci since I have not seen them play one snap.
The B1G screwed up college football from the get go. Kevin Warren supreme leader #1 idiot.
Then the AD's presidents, changing rules on the fly, etc....
It would be glorious if NONE of them went bowling. Learn their lessons the hard way.

How many snaps have you seen Oregon play? I saw part of the Civil War and P12 Champ.
