You and I have different definitions of huge.

"Ucla is anything close to a good team."

To me, the bar for "huge" is a lot lower than becoming a good team.

To me, "huge" is scraping ourselves off the bottom, to some semblance of respectability. Beat a ranked Iowa team, and we're on a three game win streak. That will get some modicum of attention. And, Iowa is clearly the best team remaining on our schedule. If we beat Ioway, then we should have a good chance at finishing 6-6. I don't think we'll beat Ioway. But, beating them would be huge.

Ya, off of this, at best, mediocre team, we lose a ton. You're wasting your breath telling me that. I already pointed out that of the 17 players that recorded tackles (or half tackles) for us v. Nebbie, only 4 aren't listed as Seniors.

CDF and Malloe are going to have to recruit their azzes off. We need, basically, a new defense.

But, if we can go 1-5, then finish 5-1, that is going to garner a whole lot of positive attention. It will give CDF and Malloe a chance.

Keep in mind, sunshine, that I'm not predicting any of this. I said that beating Ioway would be huge. I stand by it.
