The word Iowa, of Native American origin, actually translates to "Purdue sucks!"

How about comparing Hollywood figures?Iowa has Oscar winners John Wayne,Donna Reed,and Cloris Leachman plus William Frawley.Indiana produced Anne Baxter,Robert Wise,James Dean and Red Skelton.PoliticallyIowa has supported the Democrat nominee for President in five of the last eight elections while Indiana has voted for the Dems in five of the last twenty eight contests.
This is the best you can do? Actors? Anybody remember the last Iowa caucus? AKA the laughing stock of politics and elections! Keep up the good work, Iowa.
Yes,that was pretty bad.I have never been to Iowa,but a drive across it cant be any worse than traveling through Kansas.Once you have been there,you know why Dorothy Gale had those exotic dreams of getting out of there.
So true! We used to vacation in CO and my Dad thought it was a great idea to take one of the long Dodge vans and drive through Kansas. "I spy an oil well..." and fall asleep. Painfully boring.
I actually looked it up: "Iowa" in Iroquois translates to "Land of Butthole"
If I were forced to choose between living in Iowa, living in New Jersey or death, death would probably win.
Why? I hate Iowa. Especially the fact that we have t already beaten them this week and have to wait til Saturday.
A lot of teams beat us a lot of times in that stretch. GBHF. God Bless Hayden Fry.
He's no icon of Iowa wrestling. He coached at Iowa State, aka, Clown University.
Ok now you've gone and done it. Indiana, Indiana, Indiana.
Just kidding. It's still Indinia.
We could get a bunch of little Purdue drum replicas and smash them all every time we run out of the locker rooms.
We could burn corn stalks but that would be disparaging both teams.
I believe a pork tenderloin sandwich has also been suggested as a trophy
President Kinnick that has a certain ring to itI first learned about Nile Kinnick in this superb article by Ron Fimrite, published in 1987...
NILE KINNICK

PSU got physically beaten by the bullies of the B1G Ten .Just can't stomach Joe Pa U. Cael is an ISU alum no love lost there
That article has long been a favorite of mine always brings a tear for all the boys who didn't get to live their life. "When you go home tell them of us we gave our today so you could have your tomorrow " Semper Fi.That was awesome, glad i came across your post. On a related note, the following excerpt made me laugh: But it was his last punt that finally broke the spirit of the previously unbeaten Irish. With two minutes to play, Kinnick punted from his own 34, the ball going out of bounds on the Notre Dame five. When I saw that ball sail over the safety's head, I knew we had beaten Notre Dame," Couppee says. "I have played in 147 football games, college, service and pro, but that was the single most exhilarating moment I've ever experienced in sports."
That deep love for punting as an art form lives on at Iowa. Given a choice between having the best quarterback in the country and the best punter in the world, KF and indeed many iowa fans would actually pick the punter and then bitch (only the fans) rest of the season about the qb.
The hate is strong today from hawkeye land. I wish upon you all petty annoyances. To those of you traveling, I hope for safe travels. May you drive by gas stations with cheaper gas at the next stop after you have already filled up, and may all Starbucks you stop at only have decaf.
Good day.
Good day.
