Big 10 preseason media poll

Iowa has a championship caliber defense. I think that is why they are rated so high.

Ehhhh, I disgree. Their defense was the same as NU's last year. It is easy to have a "good D" when you play teams that suck on offense and are doing everything they can to shorten the game.

Agree. They got destroyed anytime they played a legit offense.

When you are playing Minny, PU, Illinois, MD, Rutgers, Indiana and so on...you are going to have low scoring games, those teams suck...

Iowa is 100% lumped in with those teams they just decided about 10 years ago to get even MORE conservative on offense and on defense because they realized that the other teams suck so bad that they would eventually be worse than Iowa if Iowa just did nothing at all. There is a reason you see iowa punting from the other teams 40 yard line. Why give those other teams any chance at all when you know they will just **** up.

FWIW, the Huskers have the 3rd most returning starters in the country.
