You guys also get to play Nebraska and other crappy Big Ten West teams every November lol
All Iowa Football Team---Post Bowl Edition
- Thread starter YeahBuddy
- Start date
A 17-6 record in November since 2015 is very good. Regardless of who you face.
During that stretch in the month of November, Iowa played 4 top-10 teams and went 3-1; 5 top-15 teams and went 3-2; 7 top-25 teams and went 4-3.
Interesting using game time ranking and not end of year. I didn't think Iowa fans approved.
I haven't tried it yet but I will use blackuniforms when I do so you know who I am.
QB- Purdy
RB- B. Hall
TE- Kolar
WR- X. Hutchinson
WR- Milton
WR- Tracy
LT- Foster
LG- Downing
C- Linderbaum (barely)
RG- Schweiger
RT- Ince?
DE- Petersen
NT- I. Lee
DT- Uwazurike
DE- McDonald
WLB- Campbell
MLB- Vance
SLB- Rose
Star- I. Young
LCB- A. Johnson
SS- Eisworth
FS- Koerner
RCB- Hankins (I know he's a LCB, but him and A. Johnson are the two best corners IMO).
Even as a die hard Cyclone fan, I was really surprised filling this out how many ISU players I'd pick as starters over Iowa's players. I was actually trying pretty hard to not be overly biased and pick Iowa players when it was too close to call.
For example, Linderbaum is a stud, but so is Newell, but Linderbaum is definitely the better NFL prospect, so I went with him.
I really don't know much about Ince at all, but figured I'd take him over Remsburg/Ramos.... but I was just trying to find some Iowa players to put on this list.
I also really like Campbell for Iowa at LB, but not sure that I'd really take him over Hummel either?
Same goes for Koerner and Hankins. I like Hankins, but Kyle is no slouch at all either. And Koerner is solid, but the transfer Amos might be better?
Thoughts?

Lol, you lost me at "barely". Linderbaum is the best C in the country. Not close.
Do you disagree with anything else?
Linderbaum is better than Newell, just not by near as much as Hawk fans think, that’s all I wanted to point out. Newell is also one of the best centers in the country as well.
I included Tracy only because I think he’s going to have a breakout season this year.
I think you got lots of stuff right but have no idea why you go with 1 RB and 3 WR. I don't know any all-conference/all-america team that goes with that. It's usually 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE. You also left Schott out at G and PFF has him as the #8 OL in the country.
I’ll give you Schott over Schweiger then.
ISU and Iowa usually go with 1 RB and 2 TE’s, so I’ll add Chase Allen and take Tracy off then.
Nah, just put it together like any other all-conference/all-america team. Even the All Big 12 team goes with 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE. Add in an all purpose guy on O as well maybe.
So add Goodson and take off Tracy, you’re good with that?
I would have put Kene ahead of Goodson, but he left early for the NFL.
My offense would probably look like this...
QB - Purdy
RB - Goodson
RB - Hall
WR - Hutchinson
WR - Milton
TE - Kolar
OL - Ince
OL - Downing
OL - Linderbaum
OL - Schott
OL - Foster
AP - Tracy
