How far can Iowa go?

Even after the win today, I think Iowa’s ceiling is winning the Big10 regular season championship. I don’t see Iowa getting over the hump and win the Big10 conference title.
Be realistic, do you think Iowa is is deserving on the #2 spot in the AP?

You sound like a damn fool. Do you not realize everyone keeps losing and Iowa keeps winning? Alabama won't still be number 1 next week because they should have won tonight.

LOL okay.... Iowa fans are actually delusional.

There’s a reason Parker is so damn good, teams score against Iowa all the time in the first and second quarters, then he makes adjustments and they shut down teams in the second half over and over and over. Once he started blitzing (before Clifford went out) - that game started to turn. It was 17-10 when he went out. Sure, PSU could’ve still won, but assuming they were on their way to an easy win even with Clifford is comical. Iowa has a ridiculous streak of keeping teams under 25 points for a reason.

In a typical year, no. Top 10, sure.

But look around. Before today's games, everything beyond the top two has looked like a muddy mess. Now, it's Georgia...and everyone else. There's usually a larger group of teams that clearly define themselves as the top 4-6 in a given year. That just hasn't been the case this season (well, it is, but most of those teams just don't look as good as the top 4-6 typically do), and Iowa is one of the few still standing unbeaten. I do still think Bama is one of the two best teams, but they aren't going to fall just one spot after losing to an unranked opponent, and I think Georgia is now clearly the best team.

I wasn’t surprised Georgia beat auburn, but the fact that they dominated had to at least get bama’s attention.

Aggie got way up tonight, and made a huge special teams play right after having one go against them. I didn’t think they had the composure to withstand adversity.

and I thought Bama played pretty poorly as well
