Well yeah with the remaining schedule Iowa has.

Purdue stinks

So does TOE's offense. It will be another Big10 slugfest.

 

[Legend Hawk]

BigTen, home of five top10 ranked teams and a schedule such that the Hawkeyes only have to play one of them... Absolutely ridiculous

So the same amount of top 10 Big12 teams that ISU will have to face.

Well yeah with the remaining schedule Iowa has.

Iowa is 6-0 and have played the #10 Sagarin SOS to date. ISU is 3-2 having played the #66 Sagarin SOS to date.

It just amazes me hawk fans come here after every win. They dont do this to any conference rival, just ISU. F2cking rent free.

Not sure I’d be trying to use Iowa’s schedule to try and dunk on ISU fans. We’ll see what happens the rest of the way out, but it’s looking like you’ll have 1 (maybe 2) victory over Top 25 teams for the season.

There are some that are on here up to and during their own games.

Iowa has to play Purdue = Trash. Wisconsin = Not good. Northwestern = Trash. Minnesota = Mediocre. Illinois = Terrible. Nebraska = Mediocre. To even think you have a tough remaining schedule is laughable.

We are their only rival

Every Iowa fan better be rooting hard for ISU rest year.

Indianna won’t have a winning record end year...

Neither will IL, NW, Minn, Purdue.. Purdue isn’t terrible I don’t think but theirBIG schedule brutal..

So 60% of Iowa conf schedule vs teams under .500 ?

If you think that Top 10 SOS gonna last I got news for ya.

Classiest fans in college football.

Why wouldn't Iowa fan use SOS to this point? The #1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 SOS teams all have at least 2 losses. The #7 is Penn St and they have a loss and the #9 is ND and they have a loss.

Iowa is literally the only team with a topo 10 SOS than is perfect to this point, that is as legit as it gets. No matter how easy the schedule is the rest of the way, the fact Iowa got through the front half of their schedule without 2 losses is impressive.

Never said the top 10 SOS is going to last, just saying what Iowa has accomplished to date.

Iowa doesn't have to worry about how easy the schedule is the rest of the way, they got to #2 because of a perfect record vs a legit schedule. If any team needs to worry about SOS it is Cincinnati as they have played the #97 schedule and that was the tough part of their schedule.

 

[GoHawks]

Calling it now.. Purdue going to beat Iowa.

Purdue should never lost to Minn.. They really dominated that game..

There other loss was to@ ND..and game was 3pt game in 4th Qtr..

Purdue has good QB and they go 4 wide all game with Tempo at times..

Im sensing a huge let down game with the +4 TO margin ending soon..

I've thought Purdue would be the proverbial trap game all year too. The timing and general style. I think this is biggest challenge at Kinnick remaining.

Purdue barely beat Illinois and lost to Minny. You're fine.

Ok what is your point in being here?
