Leaving the door open for iowa fans to come back and laugh at this prediction, but I feel we should handle them. Most years I pick us to lose this game.

I think this is ISU’s year to win if they stay injury free. Iowa looks to be a year or two away. Pretty young team

Hope Iowa Pounds Indiana to climb into the Top 10, to set up a top 10 match up in Ames.

I think Iowa's going to still be working out some kinks on their D-line. They're going to have to stack the box to try to handle Breece and our O-line and Purdy will do what Purdy does. I'm always worried about this one, but I think it's going to look a lot like the Fiesta Bowl, minus Oregon has a lot more team speed on offence than Iowa. 34-17, good guys. Worse if Iowa State gets some bounces that have gone Iowa's way over the last half decade.

Because I predicted a 24-17 ISU win?
No lol that’s a fine prediction. It’s the fact that you said the 7 point victory was contingent on us staying healthy (Iowa might be down two starters for the first few weeks).

Your second point was that Iowa is 1-2 years away when almost every single starter is a junior, RS junior or a senior of some sort. 1 single “projected” starter right now is younger than a true sophomore. So no, Iowa’s not a young team.

You basically were finding excuses for why Iowa won’t win, and then explained why they will win in future years and why they’ll be good then.

I think we'll get out to a decent lead and maintain a 14ish point lead most the game. Iowa tries to rally late and gets a TD and 2 point conversion, but ISU wins 24-17.

I'm expecting a win, but I am tempering my expectations since it's an early season rivalry game. These games have a habit of making reasonable guesses look stupid. The only outcome that would shock me would be seeing us get blown out.

If Indiana handles them (not impossible by any means) and we look the part in week one we'll be double digit favorites.

Iowa hasn't allowed more than 24 points in a game for like 5-6 years or something. If ISU does that, then that is extremely noteworthy on how good the offense is, or how average at best Iowa's defense is.

ISU 28
Iowa 14

Hoping that IA-IN is a long, tough, grinding slobber knocker. Wear them out a bit, but keep them ranked for our game so we get either the good W or not-so-bad loss for the resume
