Dave Wannstedt says he has heard ISU and Kansas to Big Ten

He seriously said that? I guess I'd believe it, based on the other interviews and public statements I've read.

No wonder they took on so much debt and made it a priority to disparage the Iowa program whenever possible.

Now they have serious budget issues going forward (see the other thread on Debt etc.) and that predatory strategy only ended up eating away at their own future.

Karma's a b*tch.
Yep, it was in a quote from a presentation he did to their equivalent of our I-Club. It was the reason I went from rooting for them when they weren't playing Iowa to actively rooting against them.

That doesn't surprise me one bit. I don't like Pollard, but give the man credit, he plays their fanbase like a fiddle.
 
It's funny to me, regardless of who brings it up. I feel like I'm one of the oldest guys on this site, and even I wasn't born yet.
Clone fans picked that date to avoid counting the Hawks’ 2 Rose Bowl wins. Otherwise Iowa would have 3 major bowl wins to ISU’s 1.

They also never mention major bowl appearances……because it looks even worse for ISU at 6 to 1 (since 1958….8-1 overall).

What's the total for each since 2019? Or, must ignore?

That’s neat. It’s not funny, it’s just plain dumb. But that was the arbitrary year set by clone logic knowing that Iowa went to two major bowls in the three years before that.
 
The irony of this is that, early on in Pollard's tenure, he basically said the same thing...that ISU needed to take Iowa down as it was the only way they could truly thrive and it was his mission to ensure that ISU became the big dog in the state and that Iowa dropped into obscurity.
I don't recall him ever saying this. Do you have a link?

EDIT: Nevermind. After reading responses that it was at a booster event, I can see him saying something like that at a booster event. Especially if it is in Cedar Rapids, which I have attended all of them. I doubt it was exactly as stated, but it's the kind of thing you hear at these events.

Do you have a link for a fictitious regular season title being more important than a Divisional Title or do links only go one way with clown fans?

I want to make sure I have this right. As long as crybaby Pollard is putting up billboards or “just talking to boosters” we can’t believe anything that comes out of his mouth is that right?

Oh and one more thing how do you know what he really thinks? Has he confided in you he is just a blow hard working like a chimp for a peanut?

I wasn't quoting him...that was the gist of what he was saying.

I understood that. It just didn't sound like something he would say in public. But when it was revealed it was at a booster meeting, I can see him saying things similar to this. He's not the only one that does that kind of thing when surrounded by boosters.

Yep and again it’s funny how talking about our rivalry with them don’t go back to the date in late 70s when it restarted it was always from 98’ on when they ended the losing streak.
 
Curious, do all AD’s put up billboards like crybaby Pollard claiming it is a cyclone state or is he “special”?

and even then it only counts from 1998 to 2002. After that only certain games actually count and only according to clown fans.

Just how they roll.

Why are you still posting in this thread? Or here? Head home and rebuild your mid-major conference. Good luck.

Oh, ok. Like back when they were still wearing leather helmets? Go ahead and hang your hat on that smart guy. Whatever makes you feel better about yourself.

Again, it was clown fan that set the year 1958. That seems to be beyond your realm of comprehension. I’m just bringing you up to speed because you believe it an Iowa fan bragging.

I’m an Iowa fan, I feel just fine. I’d think it would be the Clowns that may need some cheering up right now.
 
At least once. Last year, to the ragin cajuns. That lame ass team ended up finishing behind us, but in front of Iowa. Must ignore?
So what was funnier last year, isu’s best season in school history being only 9 wins or a NY6 triumph over a 4 win team that didn’t even win their division?

All I know for sure is just how “so proud” clown fans are of both. Look out Bama the clowns are coming for ya. I’m sure Saban is just terrified.
