Oregon BEATS #7 Stanford, OK BEATS #6 Baylor

[OnceAhawk]

Could be a great night for Iowa, in more ways than one!

 

[QChawks]

Stanford goes down

Baylor down two TDs

 

[OnceAhawk]

Stanford goes down

Baylor down two TDs

COME ON OKLAHOMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

COME ON BOBBY!!!! WIN ONE FOR YOUR FORMER SCHOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[spiderland]

LSU falls, too, and Utah down early!

 

[BioHawk]

Stanford down, despite the refs doing everything they could to give them the game.

 

[ih8iast8]

Unfortunately the clowns let us down. Stupid clowns.

 

[OnceAhawk]

oklahoma leads baylor by 7 late in 3rd qtr

 

[1stplacehawk]

But how could we ever hope to possibly compete with that dominant Stanford contingent?

 

[BioHawk]

I'm sure they were just too upset about what happened in Paris to focus on the game.

 

[Run&Blade]

Why does it matter? Iowa isn't getting in with a loss and they are in if undefeated.

Why doesn't everybody know this?

 

[BioHawk]

Why does it matter? Iowa isn't getting in with a loss and they are in if undefeated.

Why doesn't everybody know this?

Because it decreases the number of excuses the talking heads have about how Iowa shouldn't be there.

 

[Run&Blade]

Because it decreases the number of excuses the talking heads have about how Iowa shouldn't be there.

Lol. What difference does that make?
Only cure for that is to beat Ohio state.

Teams losing that Iowa didn't play is hardly a way to back up an argument.

 

[BioHawk]

Lol. What difference does that make?

It makes me feel better.

Of course it is. That's the entire system bro'. I'm surprised you don't follow football close enough to realize that.

Just a tip...., they generally rank the teams with no losses higher than the teams with losses.

You're welcome.

 

[QChawks]

Stick a fork in Bears

 

[like-woahh]

INT Baylor, OK pretty close to having it in the bag

 

[GPRHAWK]

Too bad the Cyclones couldn't come through for us today.

 

[Hawk and Awe]

Baylors done.

 

[OnceAhawk]

Because it decreases the number of excuses the talking heads have about how Iowa shouldn't be there.

i am sick and tired hearing how good Stanford is.

Now what are they going to talk about now that Stanford has TWO LOSSES?

 

[Hawk and Awe]

Too bad the Cyclones couldn't come through for us today.

I disagree. Wish they would have won, but it's our only shared opponent and we did better. Would have been a little concerning if they just killed everybody down the stretch

 

[like-woahh]

Oregon is going to jump into the top 10

 

[GPRHAWK]

I'm wondering now if Stanford beats ND could we could get in the playoff if we have just 1 close loss to an undefeated OSU? Probably not.

 

[millhawk]

But how could we ever hope to possibly compete with that dominant Stanford contingent?

Yeah, those ESPN geniuses.

 

[BioHawk]

No, that loss would be too late. If Iowa can't beat Ohio State then they don't deserve to be in the playoffs anyway.

 

[like-woahh]

First team with a pulse that Baylor plays this year and they lose. SHOCKING DEVELOPMENT.

 

[BubsFinn]

Let’s hope Stanford beats Notre Dame.

 

[KuwaitHawk]

All Iowa needs to become Stanford fans

 

[BioHawk]

Not as much as Oklahoma does now, though.

 

[spiderland]

Yeah, those ESPN geniuses.

Earlier today Danny Kanell stated "the Notre Dame - Stanford game will be a playoff play-in game." Lol.

 

[GPRHAWK]

No, that loss would be too late. If Iowa can't beat Ohio State then they don't deserve to be in the playoffs anyway.

I agree.

 

[GPRHAWK]

Also does Houston have any chance at the playoff if Stanford beats ND?

 

[leiserom]

I dont know about Houston but I was at the Houston/Memphis game this evening(It killed me to miss the Iowa game but I have a season ticket to UH in a donor area that cost a lot). People started leaving when they were down 20-7. They give up too easily. They rallied and finally went ahead with a minute and half left. The Memphis kicker who kicked everything else out of the end zone missed FG that would have won the game. I guess the pressure and the noise(it was deafening) got to him. Best college game I have been to since Iowa rallied from behind to beat Pitt a few years ago.

 

[takai]

So everyone behinds us either loses, or had a poor performance (Okie State).

Everyone in front of us won as expected.

We played a not so good game. I can only predict we'll stay right where we're at at #5.

 

[ichawk24]

Does the Stanford loss count? Kickoff was so late for their senditive body clocks.

 

[ih8iast8]

Don't forget, Memphis is knocking on the playoff door too!

 

[ANYCHawk]

First team with a pulse that Baylor plays this year and they lose. SHOCKING DEVELOPMENT.

But, Coward said the opposite and all we do it play the Lamar's of the world....Oh wait that was Baylor that played Lamar.

 

[ANYCHawk]

It was a 9 a.m. kickoff in Hong Kong.

 

[Scott559]

down goes Utah in OT, bye bye Pac 12

I agree, we stay right where we are. However, OkSt was down 17 whereas the Hawks led the whole game. Plus, in the very strange world of ESPN and ratings experts where defense doesn't count, a 40-35 win is a hundred times better than a 20-14 win.

 

[RIGHTWINGHAWK]

Could be a great night for Iowa, in more ways than one!

Both wins helped the Hawks, only wish Okie State would have lost also...
