George Conditt team Puerto Rico is facing off against Tyrese Haliburton Team USA on FS1 right now.

I was looking at the updated map for 2023. Do the south lots for general public require a registration? I seem to remember before you had to sign up at vet med?

Is there any understanding why Brock is not practicing with the Team? Seems odd that this is a secret. I thought it was the gambling but then his name now never mentioned in the articles about gambling

I'm not actually sure if matters in terms of Ws this year. As long as different RB healthy, it's probably more on off OL. But hoping whatever is going on is not distraction in the locker room. And wish Brock luck in whatever next

$999 for the whole package. Sec 2 row 35 seat 11-13 with seatbacks.

I have a VetMed parking pass for sale. Looking to sell the entire season. Can Venmo and digitally transfer pass.

I know for the TCU game (I think?) we'll have those new white helmets with cardinal 'AMES' on them...does anyone know if they plan on releasing any clothing that aligns with that?

I've never understood why athletes of any sport outside of basketball and football are getting scholarships.

I love sports as much as anyone. But why are any track/wrestling/volleyball/swim&dive/golf student athletes getting a free ride when there's nothing profitable for Athletic Dept.?

Just pride to represent in those sports? Cause....we've always had those sports?

With Athletic Depts focusing more and more on bottom line, these type of questions will start being asked.

Since we have the current* rules for how the 12 team playoff will be selected and we have the playoff standings going back to 2014, we can see what the make up of the proposed 12 team playoff would have been from 2014-2022.

*Current rules could change based on all of the re-alignment. For example, instead of 6 conf champs, drop it down to 5. However, hard to say if that would happen in 2024 or if it would have to wait given the current bowl agreements/tv payouts are through 2026.

First Chart:

Using the 2014-2022 playoff rankings we can see who the 12 team playoff participants would have been each year. In addition, using the new conference membership for 2024 we can see how many berths the 2024 conference members would have had over the last 9 seasons:



NOTE:

B10 would have had 10/18 teams in at least one playoff. Teams that would not have been in any of the first nine, 12 team playoffs are: RUT, MD, UCLA, NW, ILL, MIN, NEB, PUR

SEC would have had 10/16 teams. Teams that would not have made it: SC, Tex, UK, Miz, Ark, Vandy

B12 would have had 11/16 teams participate in at least one playoff. Teams that would have missed: ASU, TT, Kan, BYU, WVU (tex is one of 4 current B12 teams that would not have made a single playoff in the last 9 years, the other 6, ISU, KSU, OU, TCU, Bay, OSU all would have been in at least 1)

ACC would have had 5/14 teams included in at least one 12 team playoff. Clemson (7), FSU (3), Miami, UNC, Pitt (1 each).


Second Chart:

In this chart I compared the berths by 2022 members vs. 2024 conf members. For example, for the B12 it would be the ten 2022 members and for 2024 it is the 16 new members (-ou/t, +cin/byu/ucf/hou/uu/asu/ua/cu).



NOTE:

B10 adds 8 berths with their adds of UW (3), USC (3), Oregon (2).
SEC adds 6 berths from OU
B12 adds 10 berths with uu (3), ucf (2), cinci (2), and CU, UA, Hou (1 each), and lose 6 from OU
PAC Loses 13 (3 each: UW, USC, UU, 2: Oregon, 1 each: UA, CU)

Berths Per Season 2022 vs. 2024:
B10: 2.9 to 3.8 (+0.9)
SEC: 2.8 to 3.4 (+0.7)
B12: 1.8 to 2.2 (+0.4)
ACC: 1.4 to 1.4 (flat)
PAC: 1.6 to 0.4 (-1.2)
ND: 0.4 to 0.4 (flat)
Other: 1.1 to 0.6 (-0.5)

By eliminating one of the conf champ spots, you open up an at large bid (0.4 berths from remaining PAC+0.6 from "others" = 1 conf champ spot, everyone else can continue to average the same number teams that they have in the past 9 seasons to fill 5 champ spots + 7 at large spots).


Net, I think the B12 did pretty well. They have a relatively deep conference that should have opportunities to get multiple teams in a playoff in the future. Last year, KSU and TCU would have both qualified as well as Utah. Two years ago, Cinci, OSU, Utah, and Bay would have all been in. That is 7 new members all represented in the past 2 years (avg of 3.5 berths/year!).

As the title indicates, I have a C1-C2 Parking Pass for sale for the full season. Not really looking to break up into individual games.

Hello. My family would like to take our camper up to the OSU game on 9/23, and I was planning to just take it to Vet Med, where campers have always been welcome. Thankfully a booster friend told me last week that with all of the lot maintenance there is no public RV parking this season.

Looking for anyone who is interested in selling an RV village spot for the 9/23 game vs. Oklahoma State. Will keep my fingers crossed!

Is anyone willing to trade their G6 season parking pass for my D3 parking pass??

Might be a long shot, but is anyone willing to trade their G6 season parking pass for my D3 pass? The construction messed us up this year and we weren’t able to get into our usual lot.

Looking forward to our 2nd season in The Village. Now that the realignment talk has calmed down and football season is upon us I have an important topic for which I need some advice. We travel from southeast Iowa, up 218 & 380 to 30 (vice versa to get home). Last year we would dump at the 380 rest stop south of CR on our way home. However, the Iowa DOT has closed all the public dump stations. Where are people (specifically those heading east) dumping their tanks?

there is a report that the big 10 will go to 10 conference football games with the addition of UW and OR. Will the big 12 consider going to 10 big 12 games? and if both conferences do that will the Iowa/ Iowa State game be taken off the table in the non conference schedule.

just a question. i love the iowa rivalry game but i can see the problem of having it remain.

thanks what is everyones thoughts?

Sold

Enjoy.

I have a single SEZ club seat for sale for the Iowa game. Sec 20 Row 35. Asking $225

Anyone that is overseeing the disaster on the corner of 24th St. & Stange as well as SE. 16th St. and South Duff. Give yourself an extra special pat on the back due to your epic level of incompetence.

There has been absolutely zero sense of urgency since these projects began. You guys obviously couldn’t care less about inconveniencing Ames residents. Your boss is clearly putting zero pressure on you to get the job done, that you are putting zero pressure on the contractors to finish it up.

Yes, I’m mad bro
Yes, I’m triggered
Lol

Hey all, there is no more direct way you can support Iowa State WBB than by signing up a group for this golf outing or donating on the below site. The first $18,000 raised will be matched by a donor! All funds go directly towards our We Will WBB fund. Www.iowastateway.com

Just wanted to drop by and say how excited I am for my alma mater and my cougars to be a part of this great conference and for the opportunity to play Iowa State on a regular basis. I'm hoping to make it up to Utah for our game vs your cyclones in November. If anyone would like me to show you around the area or around campus or would like any recommendations. Let me know. I look forward to welcoming y'all to Provo!

Has anyone dealt with them? Are they reputable? Good experience?

Any chance of new wrestling gear being posted to the store? Back to school is coming for the kids and I would like more options than the Paniro Johnson NIL signature tee. Or is there another good option for cyclone wrestling gear elsewhere?
