Anyone go, or listen, who can give a recap? I obviously don't want to spend my own personal time sitting thru an hour let alone 10 min of that bs. But would be interesting to get some coach speak cliff notes.

That's a top 25 team right there.  http://espn.go.com/college-football/rankings

Well, maybe next week?

At least we all know where 1 of the 44 votes came from

They won't touch the top25. They struggled with Illinois St, Iowa St and Pitt. Every top 25 team with an average performance would put all 3 of those teams away in the 2nd quarter. The Iowa hype is Mccarney's attempt and the attempt of some of our fans trying to put water on the flames.

But....but...he said he knew what it looked like and that's a top 25 team.

But seriously, I agree with you.  They might sneak in there next week IF they win in Wisconsin.  I see the Badgers getting the W and Iowa getting 1 top 25 vote next week.

I'm new to the forum and appreciate the content to keep up and learn about the team. I try to give the benefit of the doubt as this is the first season I've really been "plugged in", but, when I read part of the transcript I had no idea what he was saying, what it meant and I wasn't able to gain any insight into what's going on with the team or program. My thought was WTH did that guy say. Is that normal or a bad day?

He talks in deep breathes with huge run on sentences. It's a ton of psychobabble bullshit. There is no trying to crypt it. It is what it is and we're trapped with it thanks to our AD.

Iowa plays at Wisconsin, the real "biggest home field advantage in college football."

They lose by 20 and become a footnote in the Big 10

So about that. Iowa just dominated Wisconsin in their own house. Yes 10-6 is dominated in the Big Ten. Wisconsin had no business being in that game.

Definitely not dominating, as Wisconsin was in the red zone with a chance to win in the final seconds, and fumbled the ball away earlier in the game at the Iowa 1 yard line.

But, a win at Wisconsin is impressive, even when Wisconsin is in the midst of a down year.

I still think Iowa ends the season with 4 or 5 losses and out of the top 25

      Two more home games before students are back, then hopefully the athletic department is going all out to try to compete with last year's record-breaking numbers.

      Auburn warns of potential ticket price hike ahead of revenue-sharing model

      In traditional professional football, when teams pay players and have a losing season, the teams still make $$$ and turn a profit. Thus they can afford to continue to pay players. In today’s college football, when boosters pay players NIL and the team has a losing season, the boosters lose money AND they don’t get to experience the joy of being associated with a winner. Will those boosters keep donating NIL? Do you have to find new boosters? Don’t you eventually run out of boosters? Just don’t see how this NIL model is sustainable. Rich people didn’t get rich by losing money and I don’t see how you can keep asking them to do that via NIL. The revenue sharing model WILL work and it will be interesting to see what percentage of revenue is ultimately allocated to labor. The NBA gives 51% of gross revenue to players. The other major professional leagues give less. But why would colleges give players anything close to that? College players are infinitely replaceable. People root for their school and as a consequence of that, root for the players competing for that school. But if the Top 100 players in college football disappeared overnight, would the popularity of the sport suffer at all? I don’t think it would. Offer the players minimum wage, make them sign binding contracts with buyouts and non-competes (assuming you can still enforce those: that is another rabbit hole). NIL will still exist but won’t be as big of a deal because of the contracts and buyouts. If a players thinks he is too good for this system, they can start their own football league or wait until they are eligible for the NFL. Why wouldn’t this work?

      I don’t know how much they care. It’s like monopoly money. Many of them are just borrowing from Uncle Sam and hoping they don’t have to pay it back.

      SMUt getting owned by State

      Did you believe Alabama would be uncompetitive vs Oklahoma? What about OSU vs Tennessee? Did you think TCU would get absolutely nuked by Georgia a few heads ago AFTER beating #4. Michigan? Blowouts happen every year in we den the 4 team playoff. They mean little.
