Just watch, this is a total Jon Miller subject (especially coming off of a hokeye loss). I can just hear it... "Sorry Clone fans, but you're the worst team ever in the history of the Big XII, just a fact. I hate to be the one to tell it to you". Yeah, I'm sure he really hates it. BTW, with Minnesota's past success, you could probably argue that iowa is at the very bottom of their conference as well. Actually, not really. While some of the more obnoxious Iowa fans we've all no doubt met would think more highly of the team's tradition than it actually deserves, they're far from the bottom of the Big Ten. They're easily better than either Northwestern or Indiana historically. They have more conference titles than Michigan State or Purdue and the same number as Wisconsin. They're certainly no Ohio State or Michigan, but they're certainly not the worst-ever in the Big Ten.

BvK, you've got to quit making so much sense because I "must spread some rep around" before giving more to you. (Original quote by wonkadog.) |
