    This team never learns

    We are not a top 10 team. If we were, Monte wouldn't play like he did tonight. Matt wouldn't be such a head case from game to game. We belong between 11-18 just like last year. The rankings seem to really go the players' heads and egos. They just need to go out and play. Who cares where you are...

    Washpun or Morris, who looked like they were ready for the NBA?

    Monte was scared of Washpun all night. He doesn't like playing against guys who are quicker and physical.

    College Football Playoff Rankings (Nov. 17)

    I have watched Florida play a lot. More than you have I am sure. They can easily beat Alabama. It only takes one game. Alabama is not very good offensively. Florida creates a lot of turnovers. If they get short fields and get up a couple scores they can easily win. Alabama is a different team...

    College Football Playoff Rankings (Nov. 17)

    Alabama is not guaranteed a spot either. You all forget that they still have to play Florida in the SEC Championship. Florida by far has the best defense in the nation right now. It is nearly impossible to score on them. Alabama is weak on offense. Florida just needs to hang around like they...

    Week 2 - BCS Projections

    So true, so true. It obviously should be Alabama v LSU again cause that was such a "great game". What a snoozer.

    Week 2 - BCS Projections

    Those defending Ohio State...how can you use the argument that they are undefeated and reigning champs when last year everyone was dogging Florida State for being in the exact same situation? They went undefeated 2 years in a row and the majority of people on here were saying they didn't deserve...

    SEC Myth - Iowa Nice Guy

    Of course the SEC has the best players and has good team. Look at what they offer: Great weather year round, zero academic standards, no rules to follow in terms of recruiting, no integrity, ESPN helps in their recruiting, limitless funding (ESPN), outside of a handful of school that care about...

    Rhoads seems to barely be able to credit Lanning...

    So what would everyone's reaction be on here if CPR starts SR on Saturday? Just curious...

    What We Need To See Against Baylor

    I think we should just come out and practice our gameplan for Texas next week. Work on our offensive schemes, get reps more reps for Lanning and other offensive players. Work on blocking schemes, running game. Hopefully our defense will try and tackle someone?? Maybe have our DB's play within...

    Observations from yesterday's loss to Texas Tech

    Hey, DLC caught a pass from Lanning late in the game!!

    Give Mangino Credit

    They don't work most of the time because AL and QB rarely attempt to block on the outside and when they do they don't sustain their blocks. QB is terrible at blocking which is why he probably spends a lot of time on the sidelines...

    CFTV: Mark Mangino looks back at Iowa, ahead to Toledo

    My two cents: I am by no means an expert but what I have noticed is this: Having watched MM coach at OU and KU, running the same offense at both schools (not sure about Youngstown 2 years ago) I don't see much of a resemblance in the system/play calling here at ISU. The only consistency is...

    Monte invited to Pan-Am Games tryouts

    Monte is a bit small for the NBA. He still needs to put on some weight in order to be able to absorb the physicality of that league. He could get by with his current frame if he had that quick first step and was able to create and knock down his own shots. He isn't to that point yet though. He...
