Dems, would you take a Trump victory to guarantee an Iowa Football National Championship?

Hell no. I’ll take President Harris and winning a national championship in my lifetime as the pleasant surprise it will be one day. 😉
I would take a Cyclone championship to keep Trump out. That's how much I hate that POS.
Trump will eventually die. A natty would be forever.
I edited it. But, yeah, I would take a 1990s Chicago Bulls style run for Iowa State if it meant Trump loses.
My beloved Cubs won in 2016. I would trade that if it meant Donny Big Mac attacked his heart that year. That's how serious I am.
I would rather eat a tenderloin smothered in Heinz ketchup, tater tot casserole, quad city pizza and Necco candy wafers chased down with root beer while watching ISU win a NC than have that POS be president again.

I would two girls and a cup with Goldmom to keep Trump out.
I’m not a Dem but I am against Trump and will be voting Harris.
I would take that deal in a heartbeat.
We survived one Trump term; we would survive a second (well, maybe not @Chishawk1425, but the rest of us would).

I already did this with the Cubs and I didn’t know about the deal ahead of time.
Let’s be honest here millah… a NC will last only until the next September for most Iowa fans. Three years without a repeat and many here will be insisting Beth find a new football coach. (I know how Iowa fans here think!)
Go about my daily life like normal, occasionally thinking about how stupid the majority of Americans are.

Well Dirty… you know Iowa has a NC already? 1958, Iowa won the Look Magazine's #1 college football ranking…It’s legitimacy is recognized because Look Magazine was the only college football poll that was taken after the year’s bowl games were played. Back in those days, “final polls” were taken after the regular season was concluded.
I’m thinking the Look trophy is on display at the UI H of F….
Enjoy your new found pride in UIowa football!

No problem… it was my pleasure. I just really don’t like “rewritten” history….Now CNN it’s been a long time but UIowa does have a football ancho it’s credit. That ‘58 team was probably the most talented (offensively) FB team Iowa City has ever had. Duncan, Jeter, Fleming, Nocera, Horn, Furlong and Gravel….all in the backfield! (So many then because players had to play both ways… but damn good teams…Jeter and Fleming were great runners and a screen pass always had a damn good chance to go all the way!
I was about 9 years old then…I saw them play tOSU (lost) and Notre Dame (win) on consecutive weeks in November that year…Put it this way… that 1958 offense was better than last years UIowa defense! They just flat out-scored opponents damn near every week. (Except for that goddamned Bob White!)
Horse hockey. We still talk about going to the final 4 in 1980 like it was yesterday...Let’s be honest here millah… a NC will last only until the next September for most Iowa fans. Three years without a repeat and many here will be insisting Beth find a new football coach. (I know how Iowa fans here think!)
The IOWA offense has been cursed ever since that night. Bad juju.
And poor BF had to fall on the sword. Just another reason to hate the orange turd!
I faux pas’d! I apologize… It wasn’t “Look” magazine but the Football Writer’s of America that made UIowa their final #1 ranking! Again that award was the only college football award made after the bowl games were played. The rationalization the Football Writer’s gave was UIowa’s much tougher schedule during the season and the fact that UIowa rik-rolled Cal in the Rose Bowl whereas LSU barely squeaked by in their bowl game. But Iowa does have a recognized NC to their credit. The Grantland Rice Award was given by the Football Writer’s to their #1 ranked team in the nation…following the 1958 season their choice was UIowa. Again, the Grantland Rice Trophy is on display at the UI Gall of Fame.
Again, I apologize for my faux pas! But I will usually trust my rote memory to what is published in Wikipedia.
