To make a legit run at all the marbles, it is important that we start off in the Top 10. This is a good sign.

Having said that, votes are stupid, and the reliance on returning starters is probably the gayest thing voters do.

don't forget using the prior season's bowl results.

Someone asked me this weekend where I thought we would be ranked to start the season....and imho I think it could widely vary.

A loss in the bowl...the departure of a couple key juniors...and we could be looking at 12-14 range.

If they all come back...we win our bowl....I think we could be as high as 5-6...and no lower than 8th

FSU @ Oklahoma

6-(probably)6 versus 6-(probably)6

Just think, that game could determine who goes to the Little Caesar's bowl.

The only year that extreme pre-season hype worked out for Iowa was 1985, and the regular season affirmation of that hype was a big part of why it was such a legendary year.

But it's almost always bad for an Iowa level program to get this kind of hype. It puts too much of a bullseye on us, we want to operate under the radar as long as possible. Mississippi this year is a good reminder of that.
