Did you watch the game subby? Iowa doesn't look like a top 5 team. But neither does Florida.

Iowa got bailed the fark out majorly that game. I wouldn't put them in the top 10 if I had a vote.

I, for one, I'm looking forward to the national title game between Boise State and TCU.

If you think Iowa is better than any of the teams that are ranked above them, you are on crack rock.

No kidding, BGates, Iowa sucked. Indiana was robbed of a TD at one point, and a few other questionable calls went against them. And I root for Iowa. They deserved to drop in the ranks, no question.

By this logic, no team should be ranked.

This is the lamest college football season in recent memory. Not a single team really impresses me this year.

Texas can win it all, and as an Aggie, I'm happy for them. But, this media love affair with them is worse than the Cowboys ever was. Colt McCoy is not a Heisman candidate this year...at all.

Terry Bradshaw actually said something intelligent today: he said Iowa must carry their own replay officials around with them, and that Indiana got hosed.

At least the poll correctly dropped Alabama for loafing around this weekend. Slackers.

Really the only reason Iowa deserves to be ranked at all is that there really aren't any other teams stepping up to the plate.


I'm still pulling for a Cincy-TCU or TCU-Boise National Title game. But the only way for that to happen is for Florida and Alabama to both have at least two losses, and Texas and Iowa to each get one.

Media last month: "Penn State is better than Iowa, despite their one loss to....Iowa."

Media last week: "USC is better than Iowa, even with one loss, because they beat Notre Dame (*snicker*)..."

Media this week: "Oregon is better than Iowa, because they beat USC..."

only the best defense in the nation proving all the doubters wrong...

You're not very good at logic.

No kidding, I saw the first part of the game and thought, "Jesus Christ! Even Virginia beat Indiana- and they ran all over them!" Christ Almighty, it's a miracle they pulled that off.

That was some of the most horrid officiating in a game that I have seen in quite some time. The overturned touchdown call was unbelievable.

If Iowa hangs on to their ranking, they will play a very good team in a bowl game and get trounced.

A&M is the only game left for them to watch.

the toughest part is over, yeah. It also looks like the rust from the first month of the season is gone. these last two games were supposedly trap games, but the defense is just stifling, and McCoy is making the throws that got him all those Heisman votes last year.

Congratulations Iowa, your reward for remaining undefeated is to be ranked below three other undefeated teams, all three of whom were in the top three all season long.

Seriously, subby, what the hell are you smoking?

exactly, colt has been sick for weeks, our running back is back on the field and the young defense is putting up the big numbers.

remember doubters out there, Texas is scoring with all three teams- offense, defense and special teams.

Texas and Florida in cali. the bookies won't let you make a dime on that bet.

The article is about their AP ranking, not their BCS ranking, which is buoyed by their #2 ranking by the computers.

So, on another note, who wins Iowa vs. Oregon State, since that is certainly where the Rose Bowl seems to be heading to, barring some disaster of the top 3 teams that gets Iowa into the BCS championship game.

Sorry, obviously meant Oregon, not state.
