Will Iowa State beat Iowa?

[iowajerms]

ISU loses great receiving corp but returns Kempf and Montgomery. Iowa lost The Outlaw (Josey Jewell) and Josh Jackson. They went into OT with ISU this past season and Iowa State played Jacob Park.

That is my favorite rivalry game outside of Washington vs Washington St. I usually pull for ISU just because they're the underdog in that game. With that said, ISU looked super solid last season and I mean they looked as good if not better than I have ever seen them.

The Clones will be terrible next year.
But they'll beat Iowa and get Ferentz back to .500

Yeah, I’d have to agree. The Seneca Wallace year were fun to watch, even though they faltered down the stretch. But they had some playmakers this year, especially at the WR position.

I figured ISU made a bad coaching hire ... I thought they should have hired Willie Fritz (Tulane) but Campbell had 'em rolling last year.

I've never had any problems with Iowa State.

For a school that doesn't win very much, they have excellent crowd support
and attendance. They've increased stadium capacity a couple of times in the
last 20 or so years.

Those people stick with them

I went to college in Nebraska. They brag about how loyal they are towards Nebraska. Obviously, they are pretty loyal, but they don't like me saying ISU fans are more loyal.

When I would debate about it with them (10-15 years ago), I would ask them, "Who are you a fan of in football?" Obviously they say Nebraska. Same answer with volleyball, baseball, and wrestling. When I asked for basketball, "Creighton" was the most popular, but "KU" was another popular one. Why, because "Nebraska sucks." Funny how a lot of them are Husker basketball fans now-a-days.

I pointed out that if you named those same sports for Iowa State, they would respond "Iowa State" in all sports. They would never say Iowa or UNI over ISU no matter how bad ISU is and how good Iowa and UNI are doing. Although, in football, you see a lot of UNI fans from Iowa and ISU because they are FCS.

Iowa is the only state that can say they have all of these.
(1) Only 2 FBS teams
(2) Both teams are P5 conference teams
(3) Both teams are in different P5 conferences
