My bad I seem to recall an unfortunate event but it was more than 15 years ago now!
Dave Wannstedt says he has heard ISU and Kansas to Big Ten
- Thread starter Mountain Man Hawk
- Start date
The Dakota schools would kick their asses. They want none of that. The MAC might be safe.
That was a year a clone fan picked. He was comparing major bowl wins by Iowa and ISU since 1958. He picked 1958 in order to avoid counting Iowa’s 2 Rose Bowl wins.
Hey man, I gave you a thumbs up on the first post where you said as much, but I'm not rewarding your twice.
I may or may not agree with the over-arching theme of the original post (more on that if I am pressed), but this clone fan was simply trying to make a point that Iowa is not the world beater that some fans in here claim. (All fan bases have them, and Iowa is no different.) Within context, the statement that Iowa has won one major bowl game since 1958 (the season), was fair. Certainly not a representative comparison of Iowa vs ISU, but truthful to the point.
There are very few Iowa fans that think that way. We understand we are a solid, developmental program and we hope for those great years that we break through but the lows can't get too low.
But we're certainly on another level than ISU. That's a fact. Losing to to the Clones is not acceptable.

Who cares? Bowls are a joke, especially last year when 9-3 and 4-2 teams made BCS.
Iowa played better bowl opponents in the Holiday and Outback than ISU did in the Fiesta.
I'll take the multitude of recent top 25 finishes.
You can say Iowa isn't a world beater but they're a top 15 team for wins over the past 6 years. I'll take that all day.
From a pure FB standpoint, adding KU would be worse than adding Nebby was.
And that is saying something!
Of all the threads, this one might be my favorite.
Cyclone attendance numbers, Big 10 would be better off with Iowa State! The whole thing was so laughable.
The Big 10 paid out $54 million per school for all media rights, which includes the around $500 million for deals with the major networks. That amount is going to go up to over $1 billion a year, and each Big 10 school will be getting close to $100 million/year. Surprised it could go up that much without adding Iowa State.
Has clown fan ever returned with his end of season “viewership” spreadsheet? I have a feeling that after the first few weeks of the season clown fan realized the massive difference between Iowa and little bro and gave up tracking it.
To quote FDR, “Viewership is a clown fan myth that will live in infamy”.
Given what occurred with the realignment, and the B1G’s pending contract, this is a very, very satisfying thread to review. 😂
Iowa should buy up ad space around Trice. Have a Barta video board.
ISU and Kans-ass are rabid ankle biters who should be put down
Everyone should hammer him on his social media about this...basically using your message.
He must be brought to task for this colossal load of b.s.

Wannstedt sending ISU/KU to B1G
not necessarily in that order.
