If Nebraska was Iowa 2.0 they'd still have Bo Pelini.
Bo Pelini went (3-1) against Iowa.
Bo Pelini was fired 2 days after beating Iowa. Let that sink in. That's what beating Iowa amounts to. Beating Iowa can't even save your job.
With 9 or 10 wins every year, Iowa would have extended Bo Pelini's contract through 2035.
How many Top 10 finishes did Pelini have at Nebraska?
2011-2014 (Pelini in Big 10)
Pelini - (37-16)
Ferentz - (26-25)
Pelini (3-1) against Iowa
Iowa settles for mediocrity.
2008 - 2014
Pelini - (66-27)
Ferentz - (54-36)
Pelini (3-1) against Iowa.
Iowa settles for mediocrity.
Iowa could be like Nebraska, hire coaches that don't win anything in a few years and fire him and start all over again. Who will want to coach for Nebraska anymore? Even with 9-10 win seasons, you get fired because you don't live up to a legend.
Ferentz has 5 Top 10 finishes and 5x they had 10-win season in last 15 seasons
Nebraska has had 0 Top 10 finishes and 4x they had 10-win season in last 15 seasons
