    Bowl Situation Thread

    Wow, you picked out 1 game, what about the rest of their bowl games? The Big Ten has 1 BCS, 3 against the SEC, 2 against the Big 12, 1 against the MAC and 1 against CUSA. Yeah that isn't a tough bowl schedule. :rolleyes: It isn't tougher then having 1 against the SEC, 2 against the PAC12, 2...

    Winless Season

    I think ISU will beat ASU and UNI but other than that it is hard to find wins with this schedule. Sun, Nov 27 Oklahoma * Ames, Iowa 2:00 p.m. Mediacom Sun, Dec 04 Iowa Ames, Iowa 2:00 p.m. Mediacom Fri, Dec 09 Minnesota at Minneapolis, Minn. 7:30 p.m. Sun...

    Iowa @ Nebraska-- boring fricking football

    And the turnover fest in 09 between ISU and Nebraska was so much better right?

    solid source on our bowl game

    Really? I highly doubt the Big Ten that has enough bowl eligible teams to fill out their bowl slots will tell the Big 12 they can have the Ticket City Bowl and leave one of their members searching for another bowl game.

    You might want to ask him again and make sure he didn't mean the Texas Bowl in Houston. There is no way ISU will be going to the Ticket City Bowl when the bowl has contractual agreements with the Big Ten, Conf USA and MAC and these 3 conferences will be able to send 2 teams.

    solid source on our bowl game

    Well your source has no idea what he is talking about. 1) The Big Ten will be able to fill their slot in this game even with 2 BCS teams. 2) If Conference USA can't fill their slot then they go to a MAC team to fill it out against a Big Ten team. The MAC is contracted to provide a team...

    So congrats, let's face it both teams are going to struggle again this year. Winning by 8 at home (90-82) against the team ranked 197th in the RPI might not be as bad as losing by 16 at home against the team ranked 44th in the RPI, but I don't think there is that much difference. Again...

    I would say Northern Colorado, but since ISU made a school record three pointers to pull out that win I guess we can't. I guess I was wrong, I honestly thought both programs would be improved this year and while they still might be it doesn't appear either one is right now.

    Iowa Basketball

    When I said a couple were better I agree McDermott was the best one on the court and Creighton's center is better than anyone Iowa has. You don't like Cartwright just like White for whatever reasons but for the sake of it I will give you Creighton's PG is better. Now that we picked these 3...

    If Fran was schooled by McDermott it still isn't as bad as FH being schooled by Phelps.

    Iowa Basketball

    What is so hard to understand about the fact that Iowa made 21 of 58 shots, Creighton made 32 of 58. That right there is the difference in the game. Iowa lost by 23 and this is a 24 point difference. As Creighton made 2 more three's = 6 points and 9 more two's = 18 points. If Creighton misses...

    Now you can substitute Creighton for Drake and Iowa for Iowa State. As much as you don't want to believe this because of your hatred for Iowa, Creighton doesn't have better talent or athletes in players 1 through 13. They might have a couple but not overall.

    Yeah I was there and was shocked they "only" shot 55% as well. It seemed like everything they threw up went in, what really surprised me was they "only" had 9 three's, I would have sworn they had more than that in the 1st half alone.

    What is funny about this is you could substitute Drake for Creighton and Cyclones for Hawks.

    Iowa Basketball

    So because they shot like that last year means it is a norm and they will shoot the same this year? A true freshman has led Iowa in scoring 3 of the first 4 games so they weren't around last year to contribute to those numbers. I think this team will get better and will show they will...

    Again, Creighton shot 55% while Iowa shot 30% with both teams taking the same number of attempts, if Iowa shoots 55% and ISU shoots 30% at Hilton in a couple of weeks on the same number of attempts then Iowa will win by over 15. Is it that hard to understand? Would Drake beat ISU 8 out of 10...

    Iowa Basketball

    It was ugly, Iowa couldn't have hit water if they fell out of a boat and it seemed like Creighton shot 100% but I guess it was only 55%. :wideeyed: Honestly Iowa didn't really play that bad, they only had 8 turnovers, they just couldn't make any shots. It wasn't the Creighton D either as Iowa...

    BCS question / scenario

    If you're ranked in the top 4 you get an automatic bid if you aren't the conference champion. So I think in this case the rule about 2 teams from the same conference in a BCS Bowl is waived and the SEC would get 3, with LSU and Ark playing for the title and Georgia going to the Sugar Bowl.

    Aaron White

    He didn't send in stubbs because he was mad at Cartwright, it was because Cartwright got hurt and was in the locker room for about 8 minutes of the first half.

    Aaron White

    When the game was close for the first 10 minutes and he wasn't anywhere to be seen was because he got hurt in the first 4 minutes and went to the locker room and didn't come back to the bench until after the under 8 minute timeout of the first half.
