    Fish, they're good. But I think the answer is NO.

    Great cash on the Dog today. But MINN made three key errors. MINN really should have won and covered today.

    IOWA may be the 130th ranked offense of lower after this weeks results...................and they are one game from the BIG TEN TITLE GAME.

    IOWA has superstars on the D side of the ball.

    They've given up 69 points in nine games to the lesser teams, 81 against the two real teams. They're very good but it's more a case of playing poor offenses than having an epic defense.

    You don't watch the games, and are incorrect.

    Georgia defense had 12 guys drafted in the NFL last year.

    And they are still the best defense in the country this year.

    I haven't watched much of their games but the numbers don't lie. The lesser teams can't touch them but against the elite, they don't do so well.

    you say this after ibrahim gashed them for 263 yds? minny ran darn near every play and everybody in the stadium knew ibrahim was getting the ball and the corn boys still couldnt stop it, they are only "good" against mediocre offenses

    to reiterate how not that good the corn boys really are, ibrahim has been kind a very good runner in his career has rushed for over 4,000 yards has had 24 games where he has rushed for over 100 yards, but today's 263 yards are the most he's ever rushed for in a game. imagine that, a "great" all time top 10 defense gives you your career high only in clown world

    Ya, but we know that up front. Iowa 2022 not an all-time defense.

    MINN gouged them on the ground. Some combination of luck and untimely play led to the Iowa win.

    One way to extract value from this thread. Is there a spot to go AGAINST Iowa in coming games?

    I think this guy is just posting ridiculous stuff as a joke. Trying to get responses for an idiotic thread. Iowa has a decent defense with maybe 1 pro prospect at LB. Their DBs are slow and pass rush not good at all.
    They get credit for playing good defense in the worst division the B1G has had since it split to division play.
    But lets give Kirk Ferentz COY again. That really gets people laughing.
    Almost as funny as the screw job the idiot B1G referees gave illinois yesterday in the Michigan game. That was pretty disgraceful. Even my Michigan buddy couldnt believe the missed offensive PI, the phantom hold on Illinois and then the PI at the end.

    yea I took the bait it was my time to spew since I had a bet on them and felt they should have cashed it easier instead of at the last moments of the game

    Wait a minute, I thought this thread was about the best IOWA defense in the past 50 years.

    FH however is claiming possibly the best defense in ALL of college football in the past half century?

    Wow.

    One of the best defenses in L30 years was Miami FL 2002. Led by Ed Reed, top playmaking safety.

    DEF PPG was low. More importantly, they created a ton of turnovers. So their defense was setting up points, too.
