Bowl Situation Thread

[CyBer]

I think some of you fear Iowa and don't want to play them again. I understand we have played them this year and every year, but that would be one fun weekend.

No, it's because we play Iowa every year. Why would we want to play them twice this year? I want to see a team we don't get to play OVER Iowa.

Playing Iowa again certainly not my preference, but it would be a good opportunity to officially make
***THIS IS THE CYCLONE STATE***THIS IS THE CYCLONE STATE***

Doublely Official

Officially agree. A win over Iowa would be way better for ISU than a win over Rutgers.

I feel like I'm the only one in the entire fanbase who finds this, essentially, a dream situation. :sad:

How can you not want to take a higher ranking bowl (Insight) in warm weather climate over a lower bowl in cold climate even if it is against Iowa?! So what, we'll just have to beat Iowa again.

 

[dualthreat]

maybe Iowa will be the one to decline the Insight bowl bid. ISU vs Penn State or Nebraska or someone in the Insight bowl.

sigh

Re: ISU vs Rutgers

VERY expensive during New Years Eve im sure

Airfare looks to be about 350, but hotels is another thing.

I wouldn't be going.

Beating Iowa twice in a year= Gold.

For the same reason I don't want LSU and Bama!

Playing the waiting game in what bowl is not fun at all.. Lol especially seeing all these tweets with speculation

 

[justcynn]

Another bonus, playing Iowa in a Bowl would FORCE the CR Gazette to attend an ISU game on the Road other Ames. No more whining about that either...

 

[alarson]

In fact, if we turned down an insight bid (not saying it is happening, just conjecture), because iowa was there, and took pinstripe instead, that would be when i would be in favor of firing people, because that would be idiotic.

 

[dualthreat]

i think its telling that Jamie Pollard hasn't made an announcement. Makes me think ISU to the Insight bowl is a done deal. Officially.

 

[hurdleisu24]

With everything im reading its going to be Iowa vs Oklahoma in the Insight and ISU vs Rutgers in Pinstripe. Both on the same day.

People from inside ISU athletics department are saying it is Pinstripe. #cyclones

Well, going to Yankee Stadium will be sweet. Just nothing else in New York interests me outside of the game.

We played Iowa this year. We'll play them next year. Part of the fun of bowl games is playing teams you would otherwise probably never play.

Hlas Mike Hlas
TicketCity Bowl has 9-3 Penn State vs. 11-1 Houston. The Big Ten bowl ahead of it, the Meineke Car Care, has 6-6 Northwestern vs. 6-6 A&M.

That's what a rape scandal will do to you.

 

[HuxleyClone]

Beating Iowa in THEIR second Super Bowl of 2011 would be OK with me-I'd rather not play against the home team-Rutgers- in a cold stadium like we did against Boise.

 

[hurdleisu24]

Sounds like Nebraska to the capital 1 bowl
