No. Iowa has three RBs who have run for 200 yards in a game this year. The Iowa OL is elite.

Also, I'm not "drink."

:)

Based on the teams they have played, I don't know if I would classify them elite just yet. Would like to see them do it against a really decent defense. Iowa looks the part... but without a high profile win thus far, I gotta see more before I think they belong in the top 4.

Oh man an auto correct error, watch out!!!

And with the competition they have playerd and their style of offense is this not to be expected?

Also, that's the second time you have used that stat to back up your point, anything else?

Does ND have a high profile win?

They haven't lost a game...?


Also...I used a smiley face. I'm having a good time here. These are my two favorite teams. I like the conversation. :)

Iowa's resume is suspect, their ranking debatable, and their probability of becoming vegetables after playing Alabama is 100%.

However, all they can do is win the games on their schedule, which they have. If they beat Michigan State, Iowa deserves the privilege of having Alabama ensure the Hawkeye players have to wear a colostomy bag the rest of their lives.

The Irish have to beat Stanford tomorrow and if so, that would be better than anyone Iowa has beat at this point.

For the record jayhawk... I don't have anything against Iowa. I just would like to see them against a little better competition. That's all.

And if Iowa wins and beats Michigan State in the B1G title game? (As long as we're doing hypotheticals...)

Then I think Notre Dame has a strong argument to be ahead of them.

edit: sorry... if Iowa is unbeaten and B1G champ... they should get in. A one loss Iowa or Notre Dame - I like Notre Dame's chances.

Watching the second half of this game Iowa seems legit.

Tommy Armstrong is horrible! I hope Iowa sends him a thank you card for being so terrible today!

Bolded shows elite OL play? You have lost me on that argument. I'd stick to your reused stat if that's the back up.

I'm not saying they are bad, they aren't. But elite to me is like top 3-5 in country. I am not willing to say that seeing their competition.

Completely idiotic decision to throw a fade on 4th and 1. Whatever slim hope ND had at getting in over the B1G is almost out the window.

WTF play call was that on 4th &1. Is Nebraska letting Iowa win so there will be a big 10 team in the playoffs?

No. But I've watched nearly every snap this year. Iowa tends to own the line when on offense.

If you're going 3-5, no, they aren't elite. But I think they are top 10-15.

I think Penn State has a shot to beat MSU. And if so,I would take the tOSU/Michigan winner over Iowa in the B1G title game. Preferably Michigan over tOSU because I haven't really thought about an tOSU/ND debate for a final slot. Given tOSU's SOS, my initial thought would be the Irish would get in.

First of all, needing two scores you take the points right there.

Second of all, you don't throw a fucking fade 20 yards down field on 4th and 1. Jesus Christ Nebraska...

I am dead serious that I think Armstrong has money on this game. There is no way he can be this bad. He is throwing it right to Iowa. First 4 interception game it just said.
