No TV for Creighton VB Match

StClone
Exhibition match with Creighton at Hilton Aug 23 (Fri) 6:00 PM - free admission and open to all.
As an exhibition bout, there will be no live broadcast as far as I can find and not even Live Stats.

Future pre-conference games, as we start the season, are at the Rebel Invitational against UCF Aug 30 (Fri) 3:00 PM and Ole Miss Aug 31 (Sat) 12:30 PM do not list media coverage or Live Stats on the Iowa State site. But Live Stats are shown to be accessible on the Ole Miss site:https://olemisssports.com/schedule.aspx?path=wvball

If anyone has a listing/link for live coverage for any of these three events on Facebook or other outlet be sure to post.

Hawk fans gonna turn on Stanley

NorthCyd
It's already happening. Word is out Stanley has looked like crap in practice recently and the hawk media is rumbling about the backup and I heard one fan talking **** about Stanley on the radio today. Mark it down, Stanley is going to struggle in one of the first 2 games and hawk fans are going to boo him. All we'll hear the week of the game is how they should put the backup in.

Mosquitoes

N
I was wondering how have the mosquitoes been in your area. I tried a new mosquito control and I have none in my yard, I live in a heavily wooded area with ponds in the area. With all of the flood waters this year I expected them to be bad. In the past years I could not go outside without spray on and I am wondering if it is working or it is a down year for mosquitoes. The product I tried is Mosquito Eradicator.

Online Sports Gambling

isucyfan
Ok, so I know that those of you who live in Iowa can now legally bet on sports, but for those of us in states without legalized gambling, online offshore is the option.

I am thinking about finally dipping my toe in the water. What site is the best to use? Any advice for an amateur beginner? How long until I am living in a cardboard box with my only friend being a mangy stray named Captain Scruffy?

Wasps and Wasp Nests

spierceisu
I have seemed to notice a lot more wasps an nests this year at my house. Is anyone else noticing this? I have tried to remove the nests as best I can (many of them are in the peaks of the roof of my 2 story house). I have used a telescoping power washer wand to knock them down, but it seems like they keep coming back in the same spots. Is there a way to prevent the wasps from building new nests in the same spot?

Kickoffs this year

spierceisu
Do we know if Conner Assalley is going to be doing kickoffs this year or will it be Narveson? I know Conner has said his leg is stronger this year, but he didn't have an overly strong leg last year it seemed. It was nice to have Chris Francis last year who had a strong leg and could put it deep or through the endzone on kickoffs. Does this concern anyone else other than me?

Depth Chart -- UNI

ZB4CY
Hopeful that this will be released sometime on Monday.

I fully expect to see a bunch of "OR" on this first weeks depth chart. Although, Campbell did say he would like to have a good idea for RB by game 1.

Offensively, obviously the RB and WR situation is the most intriguing. Outside of Jones/Milton.. it will be interesting to see how things shaped out over Fall camp. Same for the RB situation. Will those freshman be higher up on the depth chart? Again, here is where I fully expect the "OR" to be used.

Tight end is also another spot, but I feel both will be used a lot so really shouldn't matter.

O-Line.. how will the 2's look?

D-Line and the secondary are taken care of for the most part. The Lewis/Bickham (Rice transfer) is an interesting battle.

Who gets that 3rd LB spot..probably McDonald.

Monday-ish OT: Yes But No

Angie
So sorry, this was supposed to be on Monday, but we were moving. I'm just now at a computer. Thanks again to @madguy30 for these ideas!

What are some shows or movies that you thought were good when they first came out, and realized they weren't?

Examples:

Godfather Part 3 - At first, I thought it was another great FFC movie in the trilogy. After I thought about it, though, I realized that there was nowhere as much nuance in it as the others. It was such a letdown to me after the first two were so great.

Star Wars - I liked these movies when I was in grade school. But the story is super predictable (local boy saves the world, someone falls down a deep hole, etc.). And the dialogue is pretty terrible. I know that it is an unpopular opinion, but I think most people love them solely for nostalgia.

Almost every M. Night Shyamalan movie after The Sixth Sense - we get it, you like twists. But the twist in Signs was dumb, and The Village twist was utterly predictable.
