    Re: 10 Most Obnoxious Fan Bases

    Iowa is not good enough to be on that list. Look at those teams that are on the list. They have actually won something. Now if we were talking about fans who think they are better than they are, Iowa would be top 5.

    Leave it to an Iowa fan to not get the irony. For the better part of the decade, all Iowa fan would ever say is "I'd rather beat Ohio St or Michigan than ISU", or "the game is more important to ISU fans than it is to Iowa", ESPECIALLY after having their collective ***** handed to them during the game. The fact there was stunned silence after stating we'd rather beat Texas or OU means that Iowa fans DEMAND that ISU fans treat the Iowa game as the most important game on their schedule, most likely so they can keep up the same old lame sterotypical criticisms...

    Can't the same be said of Iowa fans when saying that they'd rather beat OSU and Michigan?

    That's right, they were up 7 and the pick sealed it. I remember now.

    I rescind my previous statement, but my original point stands.

    Yeah, I'd rather have Iowa beat either of those two teams - but in a given year, that probably isn't going to happen. Ohio State has always had Iowa's number, and beats Iowa pretty handily most of the time. Wins against them are rare. Iowa has played some pretty good games against Michigan in my lifetime, but more often than not ended up on the short end of the stick.

    Re: 10 Most Obnoxious Fan Bases

    If the rest of the country gave a rat's *** about Iowa, they still wouldn't make the list. The jihadic hawkeye wing is unbearable, but the rest are just regular fans who know their place.

    hey wiseass - as long as you are listing the facts, you should include these:

    1. If they'd have called the clip on the punt return....
    2. If Iowa wouldn't have flooded the field......
    3. And if KF wouldn't have paid the refs to not do all of the above.

    You KNOW the truth.

    Didn't say we were different. I'm just sharing some of my favorite SoundOff moments.
