This thread is about Iowa being a fake ID because of their schedule. The B1G has 7 times as many 1st round draft picks as the Big 12.

Thank God Iowa played Wisconsin in the ITFID season or they would not have faced any of this year's biG first rounders.

They played Michigan. But it seems very much like these folks try to gain any sort of legitimacy, and perceived importance, from the accomplishments of others.

Iowa's 12-2 season, which Cowherd's fun narrative is based on, did not include Michigan, Ohio St. or Mizzou.

Honest question. Why does finishing 7th-10th in the Big12 in recruiting classes give you hope, when you say that these classes have been crappy?

No one in the B12 has been lighting the world on fire in recruting the last couple of years. Compared to the early CPR years, the relative rankings are getting closer.

When was the last time Iowa Played Ohio State?

2013 Iowa played OSU at the Shoe. Lost 34-24. Tied at 24 going into 4th quarter, Carlos Hyde and Braxton Miller made some plays Iowa couldn't defend. Good game, other than the outcome.

That must not have been the year when KF could have tried to win the game in regulation to win the B1G by only needing a FG, but sat on the ball with over a minute left obviously. That would have been my guess as the last time they played Ohio State.
