Can we stop pretending Iowa is pretty good now?

Who in the hell thought Iowa was good other than Iowa fans this year?

No way in hell Iowa should be ranked 25th after the loss, but let's not pretend like NDSU isn't better than a significant number of FBS schools.

I agree. Iowa should not be ranked. I say they need to beat Wisconsin with NDSU as their only loss before they get into the Top 25.

I'd take ndsu over quite a few p5 teams and probably a few currently in the top 25 too.

They needed OT to beat something called charleston southern

Good win for NDSU, but let's not get carried away. They're not a top 25 FBS team

What sicks is Iowa needed this embarrassing loss. Even though they dominated Miami (OH), they didn't look too good. Them dominating ISU surprised me.

I still think Iowa is more talented than last season, but I think mentally they became big headed.

IMO, they should not get in the top 25 until they win through Wisconsin, Top 10 if they go 11-1. A lot of upsets need to happen before they could be considered for CFP. Hawkeyes need to focus on Toses.

LOL...

CSU was formerly known as "Baptist College of Charleston." They underwent a name change about 20 years ago, around the same time as when Furman was leaving the Southern Baptist Convention.

Tiny lil' school...total enrollment is about 3,500 students.

Why stop at Iowa?

Oklahoma is 1-2
Notre Dame is 1-2
USC is 1-2
Missouri is 1-2
Kentucky is 1-2
Mississippi is 1-2
Mississippi State is 1-2
Auburn is 1-2
Northwestern is 1-2 (I fell for this one when I was in Las Vegas)

I maintain what I've said since last year, Iowa was mostly a product of it's own schedule and nothing more.

And the big12 too.

Like I said before, they're a lot closer to the 2-3 team in the last 5 games than the 12-0 team from last year. Fraudulent.

On the flip side, it's great to see all the Nebraska fans come out of their fraidy-hole after beating Oregon
