weird shit happens in Iowa when the visiting team is in the top 10. Last year's Michigan game, this year's PSU game (took them the final play to beat Iowa despite outgaining them by 306 yards), Penn State in 2008...

I just don't know where Iowa gets the points from, so the defense is going to have to hold OSU to a bunch of FG's as OP suggested
Ohio st better win our it'll be funny. Good luck Iowa.
MSU in 2010 as well
Well you're the master if this stuff so if you agree I feel better that I'm not just homering lolI was thinking the same thing @rmilia1 . If the committee is going to rank a 3 loss team, it's going to be them. I can see them ranking Iowa ahead of a team like Arizona, or even a team like NC State(only 2 .500+ wins). I think those are the only 2 realistic teams they could be ahead, at least according to who is currently ranked in the AP top 25. Michigan State is 6-2 and has the H2H win. Wazzu has beaten USC and 3 other .500+ teams.
I thought I saw somewhere where Iowa was going to have a "blackout"? Not sure if it was all black or all yellow?
BTN is sure talking up Iowa this week. Not saying it will be upset, but making it clear it could be very close. They are not talking about hangover or Ohio State emotions. They are talking about Kirk Ferentz, Kinnick Stadium, and Iowa's defense.
That makes me a little nervous.
Iowa will have to load up the box to defend the run. It will come down to Barett and the receivers, if they play like they did against Penn State, the Hawkeyes are in serious trouble, otherwise it should be a close game
What are the chances Iowa State becomes the premier college football program in the State of Iowa for the next decade and beyond....as long as Matt Campbell remains with the Cyclones?
Heck.....Ames might become the center of the Iowa universe.....and Cyclones football might actually become more popular than the Iowa State Fair!
Iowa gives up yards but not points. Iowa has allowed less points than Ohio State in both overall season vs B1G.
