76426 Final Four and National Championship Proceedings

 Final Four Results

16 Drake 29 28-57

1 Tennessee 28 22-50


4 Creighton   21 24-45

2 Gonzaga      20 20-40

And, the National Championship would ensue an MVC Territory Rivalry between Drake and Creighton in the Last Game of this Project and the Mannerism MVC Era Creighton had was always Sunday Afternoon or Tuesday or Wednesday Night Games, but, the Big East Era Creighton has always been roped into Saturday Night Games.

National Championship Matchup

16 Drake vs. 4 Creighton

National Championship Results

16 Drake 29 33-62

4 Creighton 23 21-44

Drake would be the National Champions and in this Mockup, we'd have a Telephone Trophy, Battle of Omaha, and a Legendary in all the Best Sense of the Word National Championship.

Would USL Pro Iowa Later Turn Up a Replacement Drake Stadium?

 The fact USL Pro Iowa could later help turn up a Replacement Drake Stadium is not lost on me or any other Iowan. I feel Des Moines Public Schools Stadium Push could force a Replacement Drake Stadium, and that is not anything Many Iowans are Comfortable With.

We have not been comfortable with "The Arena" even though it has brought Sir Paul and the Wild. The problem is, the Boogeyman of Replacements is going to keep running through our State and we would not always like it.

I feel that in my view, I wouldn't want a Generic Shield for a Logo as much as wanting to reinstate the Old Iowa Gold in the Color Scheme. I wouldn't change the Color Patterns of Teams and Schools on my own, but, I feel that it would be a Consideration.

We would have been unhappy with a 15-20 Year Stadium, too, but, that bridge was not always offered to us.

Why Not Double Down on the State Championship?

 The unintended consequence of Texas and Oklahoma joining the SEC would be subsequent that why not Double Down on the State Championship, with Home and Home Non Conference Slate. I feel the big loss would be if Iowa-Iowa State was a Conference Game, we'd miss out on the Privilege of a Thursday Night Dead or Alive or a Saturday Night Cy-Hawk.

I feel that as a Blogger, I would want to consider a Trial Balloon having an Iowa 6 instead of a an Iowa 4 State Championship by having a True Home and Home Relationship? Iowa doesn't play Northern Iowa or Drake on Campus Currently and Barta would be out of the Picture in Due Time.

It wouldn't do anything in having to make Basketball less Overexposed, which it is not, but, instead make it a Big Eastern Battle between the Big Ten and the SEC over Kansas City. It wouldn't all be good, and the fact subsequent Conference Realignment would have to be a Superdome Summit that we'd be pulled out of School and Work Later.

Hopefully, Iowa's Basketball Winter Hex will not be 50, and Iowa and Iowa State at Some Point would beat UConn to the Final 4 and so would Northern Iowa and Drake, and I don't think any of the Schools want to hear all about Key Female Family Members from Hangers On and Freshmen like it was the Tara.

Where I'd want my energy to be is I do want to see my State Schools double down on Fundraising, and I do want to see replacements for the Dome, Carver Hawkeye, Kinnick, Hilton, Jack Trice and Drake Stadium in my Future and I'd feel that most of my Hard Earned Money don't go back into a Stranger's Pocket like I was a Bad Dad, which I am not a Father or a Husband, but, the truth is I'd still don't want to be a Billboard and I'd get mad over unaccountabilities.

Let's Return NCAA Wrestling to Varsity Wrestling's Capital!

I feel like for the ribald success of Grand View Wrestling and Football spurring 2 going on 3 Programs, I feel like Drake University should reopen Varsity Wrestling in the Sport's Capital for the 1st Time Since the 1992-1993 Season

It would help Bulldogs Football book meaningful Playoff Games at Drake Stadium, and to the joys and pains of Mr. Edeker, the Knapp Center's attendance and memories have been all over the map.

If you can't win Hotel or Other Reservations, you got problems. And, I'd like Students who'd do more than Pay the Campus Man better, because happiness is part of quality of life.

There is a lot more to quality of life than money. I feel like it would help the Sports Capital, even though the Cradle would say otherwise.

I feel like the jovialness is based how our Winter Sports Fortunes are. I feel like fortunes is not letting go of the people that ruined Mother's Day, happiness is meaning like we've seen St. Louis, Atlanta and Miami Hip Hop Waves all in my adult lifetime, and happiness is not seeing a token matchup to win Sponsors.

Is The Drake Bulldogs an NCAA Tournament Team?

I wish it was as simple as Fantasy Basketball and the Drake Bulldogs hardened Home Arena Court where it was not in reach of Michigan State or Kansas. But, I feel in a scandalized twin of years, the biggest Repo is how much healthy depth is on the East Village.

I don't feel it is creative license for ESPN to abandon them in favor of a Half-Cocked Big Conference Team. I feel it is common sense NOT to have a 3 Game, 50 Year NCAA Tournament Losing Streak, and being pluck to a Hometown Relays Gold to compliment Roosevelt and East like it was Iowa City High and Iowa City West is apatheic and cold.

Any 2nd Round Appearance would reinstate any good energy, including the 1st NCAA Wrestling In Season Meet Since 1993. East's Wrestling Room is roaring like it is Lisbon and I am thinking other than getting an interest high out of the Tri Rivers Founder 4 of North Linn, Alburnett, Springville, and Central City to keep Grambling from invading our territory worse, or North Carolina.

I could be proved wrong, but, I feel the At Large Lottery is wide open without any decent Western Top 25.

Years of the Bulldogs: What would raising an NCAA Title in College Football help the Drake Bulldogs Culturally?

I feel if the Drake Bulldogs raised the NCAA Title in College Football and capturing the flag for all time like it was Iowa City High, but, I feel the compass would be everyone's way out of the house, good and bad, Pokemon Go or Not.

I feel there is a sense of having to do better than "Fine Me Later". Mr. Silver is ruing missed oppurtunity after missed oppurtunity to disclipine JR Smith and letting bleeps and blanks go like bleep and blank College Station like we didn't see people didn't raise that place, even if they never been there.

I want to see having fun again. If I could count all the Elmos and Oscars wearing Oklahoma and Hawaii stuff in my communities, again, I would feel better. But, I feel fun involves being cool and being cool would mean being responsible, even if you can't do books to save anyone.

Other than it being 60 Brickyards of Days until I free up my First International Kickoff and I will state that in this or next month until the College Football Poll July 18th, but, I feel like if it is the pop cultural equal of Writers Block is really happening, it is not a joy.

But, we need more small, smart or non traditional programs to win more titles by the season, even if it was Alabama vs. North Carolina for the Championships.

Why Not Have the Drake Bulldogs Race to National Champions to Equalize their Draft Pick

I know in the Drake Bulldogs Doghouse, thankfully, nothing involved "FINE ME LATER" as a sock it to the beleaguered Southeastern Pro Sporting Public and I am happy. But, I feel why not have the Drake Bulldogs race all the way up to National Champions to equalize their Draft Pick?

I don't love the fact that Drake Stadium hasn't had a true Home College Football Playoff Game. I want to just see, like a full on windsprint on a day we had no business windsprinting, or even jaunting, just pile up Playoff Win on top of Playoff Win so it be Texas Forever and Championship Always.

I feel like having to take the flag all the way from home like the older Americans who'd go in full turn on who won it or who just lost it. I feel like, too, seeing a big College Football Program stick their neck out for Des Moines and play a big non conference game the same time as the I-Cubs win Triple A.

What I'd want, later, is to rise a hometown title culture. Even if that meant beating Notre Dame and Baylor back for our heroes pantheon true expansion, like it meant having to go toe to toe with Iowa.

I feel why not bring NFL or NBA Training Camp to their nicely done houses of athletics and I feel like the ships need to rise up here like they rose in Alabama in the South. I want to see the bones of greatness like it was First Class and Quail For Supper like I want to see wins and championships on my first sojourn to Drake Stadium.
