In memoriam of Brian Ferentz as Iowa's OC
- Thread starter JD4560
- Start date
Yep. Our D is good, but the games will be close and all it'll take is one breakdown/drive/long score by the other team and that'll be it. Our offense will be absolutely unable to dig out of any kind of hole late in the game.
@Gonzo When literally half your conference is that completely awful and a big chunk of the other division isn’t any good either, I would say your conference sucks.
The best part of this whole discussion will be after USC, Wash, Oregon and UCLA join the Big 10 and Oklahoma and Texas leave the Big 12. Iowa fans will be complaining that Iowa State has an easy conference schedule and Iowa State fans will be defending it.
Stop guys!! I don’t like the points you’re making and you’re hurting my feelings! I can’t argue with them so I’m going change the subject!!

There is ZERO chance of this happening. Even if they found a way to pull the upset in the conference championship game, the Fake ID is real nationally with them with voters and that offensive ineptitude will absolutely keep them out of the CFP.

And the Rose Bowl against Oregon or whatever Pac 10 team they end up against.
Kirk is just so much better in that situation than any other coach he's going to see other than Rhule but Rhule doesn't have the horses yet...
Doesn't matter, when you play games this close you are bound to get beat sooner than later. It is such a fine line between losing and winning playing this way. If the offense can't find a pulse, they will slip up and lose if not twice.
My other favorite part is that if there's a Big Ten West team outside of the Big Ten West it's Iowa State. They're maybe a little better offensively but it's usually a defensive minded team that plays about 8-9 close games a year.
To prove it still sucks?
B1G 50% of teams .500 or worse out of 14 teams
B12 36% of teams .500 or worse out of 14 teams
What is your point here?
The B1G East is the 2nd best division in CFB according to Sagarin, and there's an argument it's the best division. I don't disagree that the B1G West is warm poop but to try saying the conference as a whole sucks when it has one of, if not the best division in the country, is just nonsense.
I would tend to think this is correct. I imagine it will look alot like that Illinois loss last year.
Lol. It has a 3 good teams and then absolutely nothing. It should be name:
Trifecta and Trash.
3 Smokeshows and their side pieces.
3 in the Pink, the rest in the stink.
I can keep going.
