Wow. That's all I can say.

K-State has just as many question marks as any other team in the North. Automatically annointing them a contender is a bit homerish.

Missouri you already mentioned - Pinkel.

And Nebraska won't recover like you think. That excellent DC they brought in from Wisconsin took basically the same personnel and made a top 10 defense into a bottom 10 defense. Nebraska may finish LAST.

Whens the last time ISU, Kansas, or Missouri has won the North? How about even contend for the title? Once every few years for ISU/MU. KU, never. Until they prove otherwise, like I said, it will be a 3 team division.

CU IMO has the best chance to repeat. They return most of their starters on offense, and just about all of them on defense. Nebraska is up in the air, but they are bringin in alot of JUCO talent that may fill their needs quickly. Kansas State has done the same thing.

This Chiefs thread has been hijacked by college football talk............

The last time ISU contended for anything Dwayne Crutchfield was their RB.

Just a few years ago people said ISU would contend. The Seneca Wallace days. They did ok, but still got crushed by KSU, NU, and CU for the most part. McCarney isn't a good coach, and ISU has the smallest FB budget in the Big XII. Nothing will change that fact this year. They will remain a mediocre to bad team for awhile.

Meanwhile, back to the NFL.......

Seneca Wallace has been promoted to the #2 QB position for the Seahawks following the departure of Trent Dilfer. He is also fielding punt and kicks in practice.

Very nice segway!

ISU shared the North title last year and would have won it outright had they not lost to Mizzou by 3 point in OT.

KSU, NU, and CU aren't the same teams they were then.

ISU could finish 6-5 this year and still have a chance to win the North.

Thanks!

This year's ISU team will be a much more complete team than that teram with Wallace. The year they were good with Wallace, it was basically a one man show.

And if your only reason for saying they will suck is because they have been sh*tty for a long time, that's not much of a arguement. It's not like crappy schools don't occasionally get lucky and field good teams. I'm not saying ISU is neccessarily going to be good. They are just going to better than the rest of the crap in that division.

Besides, picking KSU to be good this year just shows what a sad homer you are.

I don't know why the fuck I'm sticking up for the Cyclowns. Iowa will snap them in half in mid October, leaving a pile of bones for the pathetic north to display their crapiness against.

If it's impossible for perennially crappy teams to win, what happened with Kansas State?

Oh yeah, that's right. The "perenially crappy team" argument is a LOAD OF CRAP.

:rockon:

Hey, they can't get much worst. I actually think CU will be the team to beat, not ISU. They return ALOT. I don't know why you Cyclone sympathizers overlook them.

Fujita? Not make the team? WTF?

Cyclone sympathizer? I certainly hope you didn't get your degree at K-State, doesn't say much about them academically. They do teach basic reading and comprehension, right?

If it's that tempting, put your money where your mouth is.

Name 2 teams in the North that have, definitively, less questions than Iowa State.

I see Colorado. Who's the other?
