    That's why return men are typically shorter. Allen is built for long strides and punt returning is more about jitterbugging while looking for holes, so I can see why he looks slow.

    Pretty sure Sam is looking for that 5 yard cushion before he's willing to really commit to the throw, so no, our receivers are not open in his eyes.

    Iowa State calmly wins frenetic Big 12 title - ESPN

    Pretty nice write up from Dana. I think it's pretty amazing how calm Fred can be through everything this team puts him through. Link

    Do you consider road games against Kansas State and Iowa State as true road games? Proximity wise, they're well within driving distance. Do you count Big 12 tourney games as neutral floor games even though they're in KC? Regardless if you do or not, the committee and the AP do.

    And you're totally entitled to that opinion, but most voters don't agree with that. As it stands now, Iowa is ranked 29th by KenPom and ISU was the underdog in that matchup. Home court is huge in BB and any win on the road is weighted heavier. It's even heavier when said team was receiving...

    Well, Iowa State has something Maryland doesn't: a true road win against a power 5 team that also owns a true road win over another power 5 team in the top 25. I'd say that stands out a bit considering how difficult it is to win on the road against power 5 opponents. It also helps that...

    S&!# you do not hear at ISU football games!

    It's too bad Rhoads left after winning his second National Championship in three years. I heard Art Briles is interested, but why would we want him? Sounds like a downgrade. Saban or bust!

    Big 12 Left Out

    In lieu of Alabama, Oregon, Ohio St. and Florida St. Not entirely shocking given that true conference champions were given a bigger nod in the committee's eyes and we have co-champions. I'd be ****** if I was TCU or Baylor at this point, mostly at the Big XII for putting itself in this position.

    I support the school every year when I write them a check. Well, electronic check since this is the 21st century... I've only seen one "bratty" person in this thread so far and a bunch of apathetic Cyclone fans. Care to elaborate?

    Tried giving my tickets away to a few other Cyclone fans for this game and the WVU game. Everyone turned them down. Years past I could sell them above face value and this year I can't even give them away. I feel bad for the players because I know this isn't how they wanted this season to go...

    *** Official Georgia State vs IOWA STATE Game(day) Thread ***

    Am I the only one that sees this game as a win-win? If we win, then great... we beat a team we were favored to beat and is projected to make it to the tournament in March. If we lose, then we'll have the luxury of saying we lost without having 3 of our big minute guys available which shouldn't...

    When to fire your football coach

    To be fair, Rhoads himself set these lofty expectations. He said before the 2012-13 season, and I'm paraphrasing because I'm on my phone, "3 wins in the Big XII may have been good enough in the past but it's not good enough for us. We're not going to plateau; we will continually strive to...

    Why delay the inevitable?

    Yeah, I'll give them away for the right price. After what people pay for season tickets nobody will just give them up. That's an even bigger waste of money than buying them in the first place since people like you still value them. Also, if you want my seats next year, then by all means let...
