    Good afternoon, my Iowa State friends.

    Yeah, Brett44, I can't imagine getting in with a losing conference record. Even if the committee takes that 3 game skid without Smart into account, we lost four in a row with him. And personally, I don't think they should take that into account. Teams lose players all the time, be it to...

    Alcohol is back at the Big XII tourney

    It's about time. I remember the last tournament at the AA Center in Dallas when they served beer. I was pleasantly surprised that they had options other than Coors/Bud/Miller products. Then the next year if you wanted a beer, they had a convoluted system where you would leave the arena, walk...

    Good afternoon, my Iowa State friends.

    I can't believe that it's been a year since I last stopped by your basketball forum. First off, nice win in Stillwater earlier this year. I never understood why we had your number for so many years. You've had some great teams during that long run. And the last few years...we have had Ford...

    Go get 'em, Cyclones

    Wow, great game by two teams who played their butts off. I thought you had it when your guys were in the midst of that great comeback from 13 down. So close. So damn close.

    Go get 'em, Cyclones

    Bring on the bracket carnage. I'm glad that at least one Big12 team came to play in round one. Here's hoping your guys can keep it up!

    Nice win, 'Clones

    That was a solid win for you guys. Except for the first couple of minutes of the game, there was really no doubt about the game. Most of the 50/50 loose balls and rebounds went your way. That just shows who wanted them more. Inexplicably, Ford tried to press you guys over and over...and over...

    Big 12 Men's Attendance 2012-2013

    That has been a source of consternation at OSU. When I started as a student at OSU, Thurman Thomas, then Barry Sanders were the running backs. Some great football years there. Then the whole Hart Lee ***** (the censor starred out the actual name of the OSU receiver I mentioned...heh) scandal...

    ***Official Iowa State vs. Okie State Gameday Thread***

    I haven't gotten to watch many of your games this season. Who is your player most likely to have a highlight reel play? I've seen Clyburn throw down some good dunks. Who else? Brown is our walking highlight reel. He's listed at 6'3, but is maybe a bit over 6'1. It's amazing what he can do...

    ***Official Iowa State vs. Okie State Gameday Thread***

    While I do agree, a game at the Big12 tournament is a defacto home game for KU. One nice thing when the tournament was in Dallas, is that it kept many of their bandwagon folks away. Come on, game time!

    Hello there, my State friends.

    Ha! Bring on the magic shooting slump busting juju! My OSU friends and I always joke during football season; "OSU defense - we'll make a Heisman contender out of your QB."

    ***Official Iowa State vs. Okie State Gameday Thread***

    I'm with a lot of you when it comes to worrying about this game, except, you know, on the other side. Tense game for us. We really need to go .500 in our last two games (@ISU, KSU) so we can stay out of the KU side of the Big12 tournament. We obviously had problems with you in GIA, so I don't...

    Hello there, my State friends.

    It seems there have been several players over the years who fit that whole "this guy must be on his 7th year of eligibility" role. I usually associate it with players I dislike. Jason Sutherland from Mizzou ring a bell? Boddicker from UT is another. Keiton played and started most of his four...

    Hello there, my State friends.

    Hickory Park, yes, thanks! Hmm. There was 1988 where KU beat OU. That's all I got. I wish I could say we are the best, but it's hard for me to believe it when we are in third place. We've certainly had our chances to take it outright. The sad thing is this is a down year for the Big12. I...

    Hello there, my State friends.

    How the heck are you? I miss the Big 8. When I went to my first Big 8 tournament, I knew I would see a lot of KU and MU fans, but didn't know about the enormous turnout from ISU. You guys traveled so well and were great to hang out with. This will be the first year in a long time that...
