Question in the title, pick whatever sport you want but it has to be the same since some of y’all are comedians

Would you press a button to guarantee 3 National Championships in 15 years if it meant Iowa got 4 in the same time period?

- Start date
Yes. I have carefully cultivated a friend group that features very few active Hawkeye fans
I'd choose football or basketball for us and policy debate for u of i.
I'd add that ours would be in football and basketball, and theirs would be in curling.
They can have all the titles they want in Woman's Basketball.
Absolutely... The amount of national press that game (whatever sport) would begin to get would be awesome for us too.
Yes because half the country doesn't know the difference between Iowa and Iowa State so some of them will get confused and think we won all 7
Can you imagine the national sports talking heads losing their minds if Iowa State won a national championship in men’s basketball or football? Once would be enough to endure a couple of UofI championships, but three? WOO-doggy! That’d be a humdinger.
The correct answer to this is yes.
1) If Iowa had one more championship in any one sport than ISU in that period of time, there would be a debate about who is better based on a ton of different factors. What is different from today?
2) If Iowa and ISU had a combined 7 national championships in 15 years, that would mean you have a rivalry similar to a NC / Duke kind of rivalry. The dislike for each other would be high, there would be crazy amounts of band wagoner's jumping on and bringing the general intelligence of the fan base down and causing the country to witness and acknowledge a level of dislike and animosity among Iowa's college sports fans at a fairly high level. What is different from today?
3) Iowa and ISU would have tremendous success between them, would dominate the press for that period of time in that sport and might gain a little more respect for Iowa-based sport (that one sport of course) for that period of time. That is what would be different. And how can that be bad again?
In this case I would not sever my olfactory organ to harm my visage.

3 championships in 15 years would ensure ISUs sports future. Plus half of the championships would feature our state, and that’s not even including the championship games we make and lose. So we’d have 3 championships, probably around 5-10 playoff births, at least 3 conference championships, and be a part of the biggest football rivalry of the decade. A whole generation of kids would think of us as powerhouses. Would be a hoot.
