I honestly believe Iowa would get a shot with 1 loss and a conference championship. Like most P5 teams.
Agree with this.
Right. If they have any early loss, like Wisconsin, but run the table, I think they would get in. Or if their only loss is on the road to PSU, they will still be considered, don't ya think.I honestly believe Iowa would get a shot with 1 loss and a conference championship. Like most P5 teams.
Ya, the reality is the b1g west is down, and if you play the easy b1g east schedule ex 2015, will have to convince doubters, convincingly.Even then the "experts" would argue that we are Iowa.

This. I would add that this is probably true for the other BIG west schools as wellThere is zero chance Iowa does what bama did this year and gets in. Zero.
Whether we get in with one loss and a BT championship depends on who we played. If jNW, Purdue and Iowa State all finished ranked in the top 15 and we beat them, but avoided tOSU (not ranked), Mich (not ranked) and PSU (not ranked), we would not get in.
It's clear that the current system is all about name recognition. You get more cred beating a 4 loss Michigan than you do a 1 loss Northwestern. The media, other coaches and committee can't seem to realize that non-blue bloods can still field a really good team.
Also, this year is exactly what I've said about the media bias towards the SEC. If a B10 team loses a conference game, it means they weren't that good. If an SEC team loses a conference game, it means the winner was better than they realized. Every SEC game elevates the winner. Every B10 game drops the loser.
This is exactly why I don't give a crap about the mythical NC...it's been this way for decades (skewed toward the blue bloods) and now it also skewed towards the SEC. It's a joke and boarloads of CFB fans fall for it every time just like Charlie Brown.
