  • Meanwhile in Columbus….OSU suffers the first regular season loss of the Ryan Day era to Oregon, and the Ducks move into the top 5.

Which football program has the higher upside: Nebraska or Iowa State?

June 30, 2021 by Leave a Comment

-It’s a question Mark Onwiler posed to us after the show yesterday, and a sad thought to think about. Could the same be asked of Indiana vs. Nebraska, too? Think about that historically

-Iowa State is in the midst of their most successful run in program history the last few years, thanks to Matt Campbell’s work as head coach. Is it sustainable long-term? Can Ames be a landing/finishing spot for a coach or always a stepping stone? What about Nebraska?
