I don't believe in the curse but it is uncanny that the issue came out Feb 8th and since then Iowa's lost 5 of 6 with their only win a 4 point nail biter at home against a then winless Minnesota team. By the way...the football team was on the cover when they went 11-0 and lost their last 2. Maybe I should believe in the curse

I am sorry but as an athletic department how can you not tell them to go F themselves. I am sorry but Iowa should not of had them in there.
Since i have been alive the past 3 times Iowa has been on the cover their next couple of games they have gotten owned. Don't Do it!

......and we won, at home against Minnesota in basketball.
......and, if my aunt had a package.......
11-0, to going 1-2 in the next 2 in football.
10-1, in the conference, to going 1-5 in the next 6.
Ughh!
No.
It's the "We're only Iowa Curse".
Maybe these coaches and players should spend more time with the Wrestling Program.
See why they don't shrink when they get in the national spotlight.

The SI jinx works, pretty much every time.
It just takes a bit longer; Really, there's not a better explanation for the
past 4 games, having previously beaten Purdue twice and MSU twice.

Regression to the mean. SI puts the surprise stories/teams that over achieve on their regional covers. Basic common sense is that the majority of these teams will come back down to reality.
