    What if, 4 team dream

    Lots of people don't want these lesser programs. So which powerhouse is coming to this B12 and what is the reason they pick the B12? Yes the money that was reported today was good, but the B10 is reloading with new tv deals that are left open to more $$ as they bring in more teams. The B10 makes...

    What would ISU do with a decent kicker?

    When Miller and Deace were doing sports radio, they took a 5 year stretch and flip flopped the kickers. During that time Iowa was winning close games and ISU was losing close games. All of them game down to how the kicker performed. I don't recall the exact numbers, but Nate Kaeding at ISU and...

    COLUMN: Why I like the OVER for ISU at 3.5

    Last 20 matchups, ISU is 7-13 ATS vs Iowa. When betting this game and taking ISU, better to take the moneyline. You will be getting plus money and you want ISU to win anyway. ISU is 10-10 the last 20 vs Iowa.

    COLUMN: Why I like the OVER for ISU at 3.5

    When betting a game or an over under, it's also good to ask why/how does ISU only win 3 games or less? What could happen to cause that? The over 3.5 is juiced even so $100 bet pays $100. So as long as you think it's more than 50% likely to happen it's worth a wager. How much more likely...

    COLUMN: Why I like the OVER for ISU at 3.5

    Using a couple factors Phil Steele uses: Teams that are net -3 in close games (7points or less) have same or better record 77% of the time the next year. Teams that are -10+ in turnovers have a better record the following year 66% of the time. Turnovers were so painful last year it hurts to...

    What if, 4 team dream

    What if 50% of the Iowa St fan base didn't play "what if" we played Iowas schedule? What if that 50% last year in late October, November was more worried about how things were going in Ames and not concerned about "I hope Iowa finally gets beat." Yes, both fan bases have a segment that do that...

    What if, 4 team dream

    Was implying if ISU played in a major bowl game, how crazy would the fan base be about it. If ISU made a run like KU did how many fans would show up? 40,50,60k? How crazy would the buzz be that season? Bringing in schools that want to be in the B12 at this time would help ISU chances of this...

    What if, 4 team dream

    After ACC implodes, Pitt, BC, and Syracuse would be available to join. They don't fit SEC and Big10 will already have their part in that market.

    Grab some teams now to be stable, then when the ACC implodes grab what the B10 and SEC don't grab.

    What if, 4 team dream

    But who that has history is picking the B12 as a home? Ideally getting a historic program would be great. If B10 or SEC want them they will go there. B10 and their $$ is eyeing expansion.

    What if, 4 team dream

    What if ISU played in a bowl game that mattered? What if ISU ended up in the Mtn West when things were nearly to that point in 2011? What if the B12 got some mediocre teams to join that ISU could beat in football and stabilize the conference. No big name is coming to the B12. It's a dream in the...

    What if, 4 team dream

    FSU, Virginia, UNC, GA Tech are not coming to the B12. If the plan is to wait, it will be a fight with SEC to get the best remaining teams from the ACC. The 4 above will likely go B10. When all said and done, 4 conferences with 20 teams. 10 in each division, play 9 division conference games and...

    He would definitely help cut down the number of missed tackles. Also would cut down the number of players cramping up!

    What if, 4 team dream

    What if the 4 teams lobbying got into the B12? How about B12 north with ISU, KU, K St, WV, Memphis, Cincy, UCONN. B12 south with Texas, Texas Tech, Baylor, OU, OK St, Houston, TCU. The schedule could set up where u play your 6 division opponents, 2 cross overs random rotation, and 4 non...
