I doubt this week, however what a beautiful second half of football before being lulled asleep during the first half of play. Anyways, so let’s say the Hawks pound on ISU to the tune of either a 20/30 win.. if they can even do that.. yes I think they are able.. would IOWA be ranked heading into the N Iowa game? Just thoughts and opinions no right or wrong answer here
 
Agree, but there were some serious beatings taken and FSU was one of them tonight- also Miami got swallowed alive by LSU.. there’s others I believe that were in the range of 20-25 that got beat

miami was ranked so high preseason, it'll take a lot more for them to drop completely
lsu will probably jump a ton thanks to beating the overrated team though

preseason rankings screw everything up for at least 3 or 4 weeks and by then we'll be ready to play wiscy.

“ISU will probably jump a ton thanks to beating the overrated team though”

Wasn’t the game canceled between ISU and SDSU?

it was a lowercase L ..... LSU
 
here is why I think Iowa should be ranked:
looking at this teams currently ranked...

#6 Washington lost
#14 Michigan lost
#19 Florida State lost
#21 UCF is a Group of 5 team who played 2 Power 5 teams last year
#22 Boise State is a Group of 5 team who played 3 Power 5 teams last year and lost to 2 of them
#23 Texas lost
#24 Oregon was 7-6 last year

teams receiving votes:
{ South Carolina (9-4) }
Florida was 4-7 last year
Utah was 7-6 last year
{ Oklahoma State (10-3) }
Florida Atlantic is a Group of 5 team who played 1 Power 5 team last year and lost
Arizona lost
{ NC State (9-4) }
Texas A&M was 7-6 last year
Boston College was 7-6 last year
{ Northwestern (10-3) }
{ Kansas State (8-5) riding a 4 game win steak }
Iowa State (8-5) lost to Iowa last year
Houston is a Group of 5 team who went 7-5 last year
Memphis is a Group of 5 team who played 2 Power 5 teams last year and lost one of them (Iowa State)

Iowa is next on the list..... 8-5 last season.... riding a 3 game winning streak
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

of the ranked teams... 7 of them should be under Iowa
of the teams receiving votes... 5 of them should be ranked above Iowa

that puts Iowa at #24

Are you truly that illiterate?
 
Being ranked only matters AFTER the Wisconsin game. Beat Wisconsin, get ranked, win the West, win the Big Ten, advance to the CFP. That's the only plan that matters.

Why wasn't the other thread about being ranked adequate for this? And why wasn't Blair's thread on the new recruit sufficient for the other thread you decided to start this morning?

If we beat ISU in a convincing fashion like we did with NIU ,the favorite to win the MAC conference, I think we’ll be ranked.

You have to wonder if GameDay will be in Iowa City for the Wisconsin game?
 
Depends what happens with teams in the 20-25 range, but probably not imo....

Right. Iowa has to win 3 or 4 and those in the 15 on down continue to lose because a few of them are ranked because of who they are not that they are better.
 
Depending how things play out with other Top 25 teams. Iowa first needs to take care of business Saturday. If they do, they'll get some votes.

They win Saturday, they will for sure be ranked going into the game vs Wisconsin sitting at 3-0.
 
the AP releases its new Top 25 today at 1pm...
it will be interesting to see if a team that has lost 4 straight games is in the Top 25.
 
IDIOT - I was quoting the original poster on this you rock head.. who’s truly illiterate? You gomer..

You tried to make a joke but it was a very bad one he clearly used a lower case L. 98% of the time when someone referenced Iowa State they will use all Caps "ISU" and will not use any lower case letters. Common sense is not so common with you huh?
 
Well, first they need to beat ISU. If they beat ISU and there are some losses in the top 25 they could be ranked. Would think if they win the next two weeks easily then they will be ranked but Wisconsin could stop that pretty quickly.
 
No, I actually didn’t try to make a joke out of it I actually read through it too fast and was trying to correct the other poster ..

Question, are you that bored that you have to go around acting like a dbag and being Mr Corrective with every post? Seriously, you shot your mouth off when it wasn’t needed ..
Not sure what’s up your ass but it’s rotten .. like you and your insecurity.. did you do the Tarzan smack your chest after you posted that? Give it a break dipshit ok? Go crawl back in your moms ass where you came from little man

I didn't count on Iowa being ranked till after the Wisconsin game. I mean really why rank Iowa at this point when Iowa in most outsiders opinions is that Wisconsin is going to win and then drop Iowa out of the top 25.

just my opinion
