They came here in 2010 and won 24-17. A furking fumble at the end ruined any chance for MTSU to tie. I know one thing, those Big mofo's lined-up and ran the ball on us like no other...

Actually, here's the stats from that damn game

Rushing Attempts: MINN 67 MTSU 22

Possession: MINN 45:34 MTSU 14:26

Yeah the original one I had read had Iowa at ISU but when I updated it had Iowa vs ISU so I changed it. Eiither way the fact Iowa has 2 of the top 9 OOC games is pretty fucking pathetic since the Hawks schedule is horrendous.

Keep in mind that's just 'my list' made from the top half of the Big 10 schools. I didn't even look at the Indiana's, Purdue's, Illinois', etc..

I find your ranking to be alright. Major conference teams don't really schedule very difficult OOC games. I will agree that Iowa doesn't have much for a schedule. I would put ISU and Pitt to be their most difficult games until Wisconsin late in the season.

Each major conference really has only a handful of quality OOC games.
