Seriously?

As a native Iowan, and a sports fan, I want all Iowa colleges and universities to represent this state well.

I can't help but shudder when I see a commercial for Iowa State's Choose Your Adventure.

A young girl tells viewers what she's looking for in her school selection.

One of her criteria is, "I want some serious football!".

Iowa State?

Really?

The Cyclones haven't had a serious football season since they went 9-3 in 2000, their record the last eight seasons is 39-59 and they haven't won on the road since 2005.

That must be why they whisper at the end of the spot, "Enjoy your adventure at Iowa State" and the scientific community is united in that fact.
