    I think the success of Iowa Football has gone to their heads. They are placing themselves with names of Miami, Oklahoma, Michigan and Ohio State. Sure they have been outstanding the last two years but you are going to have to do that every year if you want your name along those listed above.
    Just to show you that you haven't done anything yet, let's analyze this post.

    The thread that was provided does not place Iowa with Miami, Oklahoma, Michigan, and Ohio State. Michigan and Ohio State were mentioned because they are on Iowa's schedule, and there was mention of Iowa's wins over Michigan during the last 2 years. Oklahoma and Miami are not mentioned in the thread (unless I missed something).

    So, you are going to have to cite another source with these supposed comparisons.

    I'll grant you that Johnny Lounge was quite irrational in his posts, but he didn't compare Iowa to Miami and Oklahoma. But, let's suppose for the sake of argument that he did.

    Your initial post stated that ''they'' (Iowa fans) were placing Iowa on this level. They implies plural, meaning that multiple Iowa fans were making these comments.

    You have given me one, at best, and he didn't make the comments you said he was making.

    So again, I ask you for a list of Iowa fans who have made these comments. If you can't provide the list, then I would urge you to quit making things up.

      Jonny quit acting childish and realize that when someone says "Iowa: Perennial Powerhouse -- and National Champs '04" in their subject that they are putting the Iowa program up there with Ohio State who beat Miami and even LSU who beat Oklahoma. National Champs is a bold statement and that is all he was suggesting. What the hell is making a list gonna prove? We all want Iowa to be TOP 10 every year. I would really like to see UNI be Gateway Champs, Iowa Big 10 Champs and Iowa State Big 12 Champs someday.

        I think making things up is childish.

          Just don't bring everyone down to your level and beat them with experience......

            Jonny-

            Not in football, but in basketball. The basketball program of the two schools will become rivals eventually. It won't happen b/c of the A/AA thing in football, but everything else, I could see UNI and Iowa becoming fierce rivals. Go Panthers!

Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

              I think you are right. Right now volleyball is no match in the state with UNI. Wrestling is hopefully going to turn the corner. I would love to see the wrestling team turn it into a three way competition for state domination. Women's bball is close and given some tough injuries this year could have competed with either squad. And right now the best men's bball coach in the state is at UNI. I think if we can get a win at Carver, it would trigger a huge rivalry.
              If computers ruled college basketball the way they do football, we'd have skipped all this March Madness monotony and just waited a month for the Kansas-Kentucky title game. And watched Northern Iowa play Cornell in the Poulan Weedeater Bowl. ~ Dwight Perry The Seattle Times

                Good point. A win at Iowa would mean that it isn't just the 'Dome Magic', but rather that the Panthers can go into the Hawkeye confines and take one from them. They almost did two years ago.

                  I think you are correct, Nester. UNI's basketball program is certainly headed in the right direction. I can't say the same about Iowa's.

                  I would say that it is ALREADY a rivalry.
