Stating something on a website doesn’t make it a fact. Lol you do realize that non conference games are scheduled out years in advance right? The ADs don’t call each other up the summer before to schedule a game. Have some ******* logic
Also, I’m pretty sure Chris Hassle and @ChrisMWilliams discussed this at one point.

Either way, Iowa’s schedule is about to be a lot more difficult in the BIG and ISU’s is going to be a whole lot worse. You don’t trade Texas and Oklahoma for BYU and UCF without taking a huge hit on SOS.

Yes Iowa making the Big 10 championship will probably not happen again in this new format. Congrats

Yes, I have ******* logic. If I remember correctly, it was in like 2018 for the 2021 season.
They were under contract in 2021 so it had to have been last year. What a treat that game would’ve been

Iowa would have scheduled Notre Dame at Soldier Field few years back but ISU wouldn’t let Iowa out of the contract for a year or two.
I thought story went ISU was trying to schedule Alabama at JerryWorld. Might have been Georgia, but Barta wouldn’t cooperate and we just couldn’t make it work.

With all your protected rivals, and two of them being kinda ******, Iowa will still have one of the weaker SOSs in the Big 10 most years unless Nebraska really gets it together and Minnesota wins a game of consequence.

Can you please post the link about Iowa and Notre Dame setting up to play at Soldier Field but ISU wouldn't allow it?

Thanks.

You folks are the worst. If ISU is irrelevant and you have no interest in playing them, why did you make an account on an ISU fan site and start posting. Do you have an account on a ND fan site? If we were so irrelevant you wouldn’t be here

Like I said, that’s the only arrow in the quiver for the B12. However, the transitive property just doesn’t work considering that was the worst beat down in college football championship history to Georgia. Whom Ohio State played toe to toe with the week before.
That “only arrow in the quiver” is a pretty good arrow tho. If Michigan beat TCU all we’d hear about from you folks is about that game. You guys are clowns, one of your power 2 teams got whipped by an “afterthought” team in the B12 and you can’t admit it. If the B12 is so trash then you should delete your account on a B12 teams fan site
