    KU Players Address Iowa St Home Field Advantage

    I'll reveal my age a bit with this, but a group of us travelled to KU for the final game of the season in 1982. ISU far outnumbered KU fans. The game was a disaster and it was to be Coach Donnie Duncan's last game as head coach. Many ISU fans did the KU wave and chanted goodbye Donnie at the end...

    Music 50th: Pet Sounds, Blonde on Blonde

    The Wrecking Crew is a great documentary. As far as Pet Sounds goes it was the wrecking crew, but Brian Wilson was the hands on producer. The BB could never have played what Brian had the Crew play.

    ***Official Niang Ankle Thread***

    Sometimes sarcasm shows immaturity. In this case it show that you are a fool. What a moron. This post is aimed at the person? who said the foot needed to be amputated. Sorry, but that stuff isn't funny to me...anytime.

    ISU MBB Ranking after beating Iowa

    Correct. In basketball the rankings mean very little - other than bragging rights. The key is to keep winning, do well in conference and get a good seed going into the tournament. A good seed would be 1(great) to 5 (OK). Don't get hung up on what the ratings are, especially early in the season.

    Does anyone remember Hercle Ivy?

    You are only correct because Maury John passed away and was replaced by Ken Trickey. John coached "belly-button" defense and would have brought ISU a lot of success. He was replaced by a man that didn't give a hoot about defense and wanted to win 120-118. Unfortunately the recruits--including...

    Sound System

    The sound was too loud -- just like the first game last year. It wasn't as bad for the rest of the season. I don't care what other fans say -- if they lose there will always be something they can blame it on. When you are young you think you are invincible, but when you get as old as me (and...

    opening story on channel 8 news at 10

    2. If 1 doesn't work, pop your car in neutral, turn off the engine, and stop the car. This may have been better the advice 30 years ago -- but turning off the ignition can lock your steering wheel which would be a bad thing.

    Last kickoff returned for a TD?

    The last one I remember at home was Luther Blue versus Nebraska in 1976. Been too long between kickoff returns! I forgot about Troy Davis in 1994 @ Colorado.

    Conference Representation in Elite Eight

    25% of the teams in the Elite 8 are from Big 12 and 12.5% are from the Big 10. As much I enjoy seeing the Big 12 do better than the Big(10) -- the tournament only measures individual team match-ups -- some teams match up better than others. How else can you explain that ISU has defeated two...
