    2012-2013 Bowls

    With the recent sanctions against Penn St. and the past sanctions of OSU, doesn't that bode well for other BIG teams, especially if we get 2 in the BCS??

    It should since everybody will be bumped up two spots. However what this will mean is that the B1G will have teams in bowls too high for them. Teams that should be playing the low level opponents in the TicketCity and Insite Bowl will now be playing CapOne, Outback, and Gator. Look for the SEC slaughter when that happens.

    that is assuming both OSU and PSU finishes above everyone.
    Iowa will win the B1G next year. - Me (04-18-2012)

    With the strength of the B10, we will be fine if everyone gets kicked up in the bowl pecking order...not! I'm sure Florida, Georgia, LSU, and South Carolina are licking their chops. Believe it or not, they love the rivalries with the B10...what's not to like for them.

    Other than their record against Iowa, it's pretty ugly.
    In 2013, Iowa Football will surprise to the upside (9-3).

    What it means is that if the Hawks get to 6 wins, they play in a very good bowl (New Year's Day?)

    The big question is IF. Every win will be hard-earned for this inexperienced team with a brand new Defensive LIne

    I don't think the B1G will get two this year. But if it does, a 7-5 team is probably going to the Outback
