Oklahoma Beats Georgia, Iowa Beats Michigan, Iowa State beats Utah

Then sprinkle in a Texas win @ Tennessee. Assume we beat Michigan by 10+ and hold them to 17 or less. What are we ranked next week? I think we'd jump all the way ahead of 3-0 BYU to number #9.

Iowa beating UM is the most likely of the 3, IMHO. Not sure about the 10+

 

[squeezebox_1]

Oregon beating usc? Florida beating ole miss…

 

[85Bears]

Phil Steele picks Florida over ole Miss, I agree, ole Miss due for a letdown on the road.

 

[WEH8ST8HAWK]

Only one of those things is going to happen. Iowa over Michigan.

I dont see OU beating the Dogs even if it is at OU. OU cant run the ball and if Mich's lame offense got 17 Georgia will score 28-40

 

[NoSeedsNoStemsNoSticks]

The only one of those that's fairly predictable is Iowa over Michigan.

Hope everybody is right about the Hawks

If Iowa wins, the jump will not be more than 4 spots. IF Iowa beats Michigan AND OSU, then Top 10 will happen.

If that scenario plays out (highly unlikely), and Iowa State's only loss through Ohio State is @ Iowa (also highly unlikely), Iowa being ranked anything lower than #4 in nation would be highway robbery. We'd have beaten what would probably be a #25, ISU, a probably still ranked like #23 Michigan, and a #6 or #7, OSU.

Ultimately, what it comes down to is that it doesnt matter which other teams win or lose it only matters if your team wins or loses. You are what your record say's you are.

No kidding. There seems to be a lot of people out there picking Iowa to win. That never works out well.

Actually it has NO impact on the outcome of the game at all. Superstitions set aside, we'll play well and have a shot to win, or we won't. This should be a close game, and the team that limits TO's and penalties will probably win. Things Iowa is generally really good at.

It’s not superstition it’s historical fact.

FACT? Your saying people picking Iowa to win or lose has any bearing on their play on the field? Thats ridiculous. They may win or lose, but their play has bubkas to do with who picked them. There is zero evidence that someone picking you to win puts more pressure on your team. They're trying to win every game. Anything else is just stuff the fans deal with. Quite often these talking heads who pick games just don't do enough homework and under estimate one or the other of the teams. Its not science.

LOL. Someone needs to take a chill pill and relax. Fricking comical. I hope you get laid this weekend. Doubt you will.

If somebody is handing them out I'll take a couple chill pills.

I got some chill gummies if you know what I'm saying.

Unlikely as it seems, I wonder what a $2 bet on that trifecta would pay out?

 

[85Bears]

This game is weird. I can see michigans d line bringing the heat, Hank pooping his pants, Iowa struggling to run the ball and a comfortable Michigan win.

I can also see brainless underwhelming being baited into stupid picks and Phil pulling off a Parker special and Iowa winning this game with some effective play action and Iowas O line showing up.

if it was at Kinnick I’d favor Iowa

3 leg ML parlay pay +5187. So $2 pays 103.75
