Agreed. And then to top it off, Freddy signs a 10 year, $70 million contract to coach the Chicago BullsOriginally posted by TennHawk:

Big Dance - I hope they flame out in gut-wrenching fashion.
i will root for UNI, for sure, unless they are playing IowaOriginally posted by MTHawkeyes43:
I would love to see all 3 Iowa teams make the Sweet 16 or if the brackets will bear it the Elite 8 or even the Final 4, how cool would that be.
Ok we all live in the USA we should root for everyone. Your rationale is ridiculous.Originally posted by skydog0784:
Yes! Iowa first, UNI second, ISU third, All others next. Very proud of my home state representing!
You all should be too.

Notice how all the rivalries you listed are way deeper and usually have more on the line than Iowa-Iowa State, I don't think this rivalry is at that point in any sport.Originally posted by Hawkbiz:
No!
It's an in-state rivalry. Do you think Auburn and Alabama cheer for each other?
Duke and N. Carolina?
Texas - Texas A & M?
Clemson - S. Carolina?
The list goes on of long-time bitter rivals that certainly do NOT cheer for each other
and that is part of being rivals.
Most rivalries develop from football and ISU has done absolutely nothing in terms of football. Yes the beat Iowa head to head, but really in terms of a national brand they are an afterthought.Originally posted by IACentralHawk73:

I look at ISU and I see a lot of cocky mercenaries and thugs and arrogant, gloating Aholes, blowing kisses to the crowd and acting like grade A dbs. They're about as Iowan as nuclear waste. F the Clowns and their jerkhole team.Originally posted by OnceAhawk:
ISU plays Kansas today for the Big 12 minus 2 Championship. Then, of course, they go into the NCAA tournament with a 4 or 3 seed. Will you be rooting for them today and moving forward (as long as they don't play Iowa or UNI)?
