    This Texas/Super conference thing has......

    me thinking. I don't believe Texas "really" wants to leave the Big 12, but I do think they are positioning for a power play with the rest of the Big 12. (As others have said) Now in this scenario it seems to me the best thing for ISU and maybe the rest of the Big 12 is to wave good by. These...

    Philosophical football ?..If Hayden........

    Had started at ISU would they have had the same success as Iowa over the last 30 years. Now stay with me this isn't a rivalry thread or a thinly veiled jab. I am one who believes because 1+2 at school A = 3, it doesn't always mean the same at school B. I'm also not trashing ISU, because I truly...

    o/u on Cornell/Dartmouth or game lines tonite?

    Sorry I don't know for sure what to do if I can't find a mod to email? I see the o/u is like 127..................I see The BIG Red winning about 70 to 50? I also think Wisconsin-GB has a shot to cover 8 at home vs Butler...... Incidentally Niagra coming off two home losses yet being...

    Do any of you find yourself rooting for…….

    For teams you “thought” you didn’t like. I know that sounds dumb and it is kind of an extemporaneous question. But I will literally watch almost any college football game. I love it and usually have a rooting interest in almost any league. One week I seem to want team X to lose and the next...

    The mother of all NFL “talentâ€￾ reports per conference…

    Actually just the SEC, Big 12 and Big 10 because lets be honest, we don’t care about the others………:biggrin: Couple notes 1st off………………… These are pre-camp rosters including “rookie” Free Agents, many of which will eventually be cut. Also I think it is interesting to note that some teams do...

    Intriguing 40-yard dash info……….

    I pulled this off of walterfootball.com, which is a decent site that you can access at this link ……………. WalterFootball.com: 2009 NFL Draft - Pro Day Results ……….he complies and archives a lot of stuff that is “mostly” accurate near as I can tell. As some know I have taken issue with the...

    I doubt you Kirk Ferentz profilers will like this……..

    But have any of you done any reading on this Joe Ehrmann cat?! What an individual. Here is the unique thing experience has taught me (you Ladies & fellas of Faith can’t help but agree) people with that kind of character don’t hang with others of dissimilar morals and ethics. They don’t build...

    Does anyone play college fantasy football………

    I have played on the cbs sports line league every year for about 4 years. Also u-sports (pay league), virtual sports and a couple others that have escaped me right now. For those that have never played I prefer it to the NFL (mostly because I like college better) and I’m always looking for...

    Anyone follow the “speedâ€￾ numbers from the combine…….

    1st off many on here know I am on record saying that the Big 10 is not slower than the Big 12 or SEC, and I believe the evidence over the last several years in the form of draft picks combine/Pro-days bare this out. This however isn’t what I care to talk about per se. I mentioned it right off...

    Another Iowa football player arrested……..

    I'm an unusual sort in that I like to head things off at the pass. If I ever do something wrong at work (even questionable) I walk right in to my GM's office and tell him first hand. In that spirit I thought a Hawk fan should be the 1st to let you fellas know, before it got way out of control. I...

    Finally watched Jeremy Reeves play.......

    Very good cover corner..............Diminutive obviously, and not a very good tackler. In fact not really very good on the edge in run support at all, but very quick and fluid. Started playing on offense at the end of the game and he made a difference on an end around among other things...

    How good is UNI really???

    Not a flame, but a fact finding mission. As is my MO, let me 1st stage the scene. I used to be a huge college b-ball fan just like I am f-ball. I followed it diligently including ISU & UNI and rooted for them all especially come tournament time. Alas life, 4 kids and time constraints, along...

    Do you approachISU/Iowa fans out of state?

    The thread about living out of state as an ISU fan made me think of this. I have often read stories involving both fan bases where someone approached them or they approached some one else. Which has always made me wonder how many do this and why? I very, very rarely even approach fans wearing...

    Watched Princeton Jackson play tonite.....

    I am a football junkie and I still have several High School football games from around the nation DVR'd. (I have the Reeves kid from Allen as well). He is a very solid ball player and made lots of tackles in the 1st half and seems to run well to the ball. Gets blocked some and can get caught...

    Does anyone ??? the fickleness if these *star* rankings?

    In another thread I was in someone pointed out to me that Shonn Greene was 3 star. Which he was coming out of Prep School, but the year before he was a 2 coming out of high school. Does that seem a little ambiguous to anyone else. Money Reynolds looks like a super prospect yet some how he was a...

    Well youn guys were right the Big 10......

    Well you guys were right the Big 10...... Blows..............and the Big 12 looks solid. Now being fair I already thought Minne and Wiscy stunk and NW played about how I thought, as I wasn't high on Mizzou. MSU also played waaayyy better than I thought they would, but PSU really disappointed...

    Yowzza, what a great nite..........

    I got to see one fan base rationalize and "excuse" why their division champion that averaged 500 pts a game played terrible and the other team played out of their head.............(you know the kind of thing apparently only Iowa fans do......... :jimlad:No seriously, Mizzou did play...

    Doesn't 8 & a half pts seem like a lot......

    I'll admit I don't follow b-ball quite as close as I used to but from what I can tell these are very similar b-ball teams and rivals to boot. How can Iowa be favored by 8.5??? Chad
