    Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but don’t Iowa and Iowa State both play UNI (not Drake) on a regular basis?

    Sorry Goldy but this has "Loser" written all over it.

    Helps that UNI and Iowa st/Iowa are in the same state.

    And nobody in Minnesota thinks the gophers are good. You can usually tell how the seasons gonna go after the first game.

    I was under the impression (could be wrong) that Iowa/St have a legislative obligation to play UNI? Even if that's not the case, easy to justify playing the local FCS team.

    Minnesota on the other hand, doesn't have a local FCS team to schedule.

    But is it a regular occurrence? It seems like they play UNI all the time and it's often a good game.

    Goldy has more than a few regional FCS teams he could schedule. They’ve just become super selective, apparently.

    My understanding that is partly due to political pressure wanting to keep the money all in state and it helps fund UNI. They regularly play Iowa and Iowa St. basically every other year, so yearly at least one P5 game for them.

    Thanks. I thought it was something like that. I didn’t look up the recent schedules, which is why I have no idea how often the Cyclones play Drake, but good on IA and their 3.155M people for the way they manage their 3 scholarship D1 FB programs. I would say they do it quite well.

    The year the Cyclone/Drake game came about was the year the Iowa State/SDSU was started and then cancelled due to weather. The Cyclones had Incarnate Word lined up as a replacement for the last week of the season, but UIW made the playoffs and backed out so they scrambled and played Drake.

    I highly doubt Bubba will be the coach by then. Hell I’m surprised he still is now

    Im convinced there are double agent NDSU boosters supporting Bubba and a lifetime contract at UND.
