    But are you really sad?

      You should have known to never put 19 points of confidence in Iowa. You've been watching their games; they were bound to lose one some time.

        The Rose Bowl just breathed its first sigh of relief. One step closer to not having the Iowa Hawkeyes anywhere near Pasadena on January 1.

          To all those that wasted high confidence points on Iowa, thank you.

            Me too.. but worse, I forgot to put confidence points on BSU and I lost 13 because I accidentaly picked Indiana (although that almost worked to my benefit). I am going to have a horrid week and drop about 10 spots

              I only lost 5. If Oregon loses though it will hurt me.

                Looks like I will lose confidence points of 19, 17, 15, and 14. So long #6 ranking!

                  I lost 5 games so far today, luckily 3 of them were 6 points and under. My largest was 12.

                    why wouldn't they want Iowa? Iowa travels great. The bigger question is that now that Oregon lost we could see Arizona in the Rosebowl as they are the only pac10 to never go to the rosebowl.

                      this is thread deja vu, but then I realized that this was discussed this in a different thread.

                      The same reason they didn't want Illinois. Iowa sucks for TV ratings. so does Arizona.

                      Also, not sure about Iowa crowds. Where have you seen Iowa play on the road? I've seen them play in Florida against SC in the Orange Bowl and they did not travel great. They had a lousy turnout and didn't even sell their entire ticket allotment.
