AP poll came out and Iowa ended the Regular Season without playing one ranked team. Not went without beating a ranked team - they actually didn't even play a ranked team. I've done some research and I have yet to find a P5 team that has ever received this gift before. It looks like unless I missed something Iowa just played the weakest schedule in the history of college football. Woof!
Iowa's football schedule

@CyTwins doing the Lord’s work on a Sunday.
I thought their 2015 team had to have the weakest schedule. That is crazy.
2015 at least played a ranked Wisconsin team that was quite a bit better than this Graham Mertz team
And this Wisconsin team man handled them. I guess I forgot that 2015 Wisconsin team was 10-3.
They are a pretty good (not great) team with a ridiculously weak schedule.
Good things happen when you dodge the top 3 teams from the opposite division. You really have to feel for Wisconsin, they are the best team in that division year in and year out but the title comes down to other teams weak schedules. That would be frustrating.
Every other team finds out about themselves during the regular season. Iowa has to wait until postseason lol
They would get exposed. Just like Ohio St and Wisconsin did this year. Ferentz wants nothing to do with playing a tough schedule.
My point was the fact that we aren’t ranked and are on their schedule. Schedule smack when your own team is part of the weak schedule is hilariously bad smack talk.
Interesting. Wisconsin, Purdue and Minnesota all received votes and ISU had zero. Like I’ve said….ISU would be 5th best in the B1G West. Woof!
If we played their schedule though we sure as hell would be. We would likely run the table with that joke of a schedule.
DraftKings has the spread at 10.5. Hmmmm…. How much should I bet when laying the points? This might be easy money. Hoks defense is responsible for more points than their offense.
You would think ISU of all teams, would have finally learned winning games against any P5 schedule is difficult.
Their best team ever just lost 5. Including its 7th straight to a team they consider middling in a weak division.

Yeah its what happens when you play a real schedule. The national media still considers us one of the best teams in the country for a reason.
You’ve lost to Iowa 7 straight times. Yet you are completely convinced you would perform better than them.
Don’t you find that at all weird?
