    How is your fav NFL team going to do this year?

    NY Giants. Will be hard to come close to the excitement last year. They will need a RB to step up to take the pressure off of Eli and the receivers. Plus the defense will be a huge weakness. They also have an extrememly difficult schedule. I am thinking 9-7. Possibly 8-8.

    Iowa State at Iowa (-5)

    I don't look for Iowa to be too explosive on offense and they have a new coodinator as well. I think they will mix it up a little bit more on defense. I expect the line to be closer to -7. Unfortunately I don't think Vegas is giving ISU a lot of respect, I think it has more to do w/ they have...

    Glen Rice Jr.

    Accidental or not, it was still a shooting. I can't see Fred taking a chance with that.

    Iowa fans running their mouths after beating the lowly Northwestern Wildcats....

    Re: No arguing here... I think Michigan will give the Iowa team the most fits. They will have a hard time stopping Robinson. I don't know enough about Nebraska, but we will find out more as they play MSU this weekend. Iowa's defense is really bad, if the offense can put up points and limit...

    Texas a 9-point favorite on Saturday

    I'm not suprised w/ the spread. Yes, Texas hasn't beaten anyone tough. However, our wins were not the most impressive either. UNI, UCONN, and Iowa are not world beaters this year. If the offense doesn't turn the ball over we have a chance. It will get ugly if we have 2+ turnovers.

    Clone Zone help - dilemma

    Madison is an awesome college town and the atmosphere up there will be unreal for this game. $250 for a ticket to that game doesn't seen too bad. I'd never pay that for a college game, but compared to other prices for big games that seems cheap.

    Coker from Iowa

    McNutt scares the heck out of me. And Iowa's TE are always a concern. If their passing game gets going it will be a long day.

    Favorite National Sports Talk Show

    In the mornings I like Dan Patrick. He is arrogant, but it is part of his show. One that isn't heard much is JT the Brick as he is middle of the night. I have enjoyed listening to him for years.

    Who won last year's CBI tourny and why did Iowa State not participate this year?

    I'm all for watching more ISU bball, so personally I would have like to have seen them play. however, like others have said, I can understand it wouldn't have helped next years team much.

    Best and Worst NCAA Tournament memory (For any team)

    Iowa was like a 3 or 4 seed, but that team was not impressive. Brunner, Horner, Haluska were all good players, but not good enough for a 3 or 4 seed. The Hampton loss was difficult to swallow as a Cyclone fan. That team just self destructed the last 2 games they played that year. I also...

    Here we go again... KXNO can't talk about

    Dual Fan, possibly. My wife would say differently as ISU gets donation money and U of I not so much. However, my education at Iowa cost more than ISU, so that is how i justify giving to ISU and not to Iowa. :smile: I pull for the Hawks when they are playing anyone but ISU. You are correct...
