    Beating OSU

    First, I think you should know that Central Michigan is rated on average about ten spots higher in the two composite computer rankings, than Iowa State. Now, let's look at all the things that will be different Saturday, than what they were in 2011. 1. The Cowboys will have the 2011 game to...

    Beating OSU

    Beat a Central Michigan team that will be going to a bowl, unlike you. Beat a Texas team that scored two pick sixes, because our QB injured his hand early in the first half. Beat a West Virginia team that is likely to finish fifth in the conference and will go to a bowl, unlike you. Beat sixth...

    Beating OSU

    Seems odd to call a team that has won their last six games away from home, "fairly mediocre." You have to go back to Sept. 8, 2012 up until today to find six road wins on your record. In fact, I'd be very interested to know if there's ever been an instance, during your lifetime, that ISU has...

    Beating OSU

    If you were hoping for a trap game, where OSU is overlooking this game toward Baylor, the playoff committee just screwed you. By picking OSU low, the players will be ****** and ready to make a statement. By picking Iowa number five, the coaches will be ready to pile on to show we're better than...

    Kickoff for Oklahoma state game?

    Looks like the conference is taking care of OSU, giving us the optimal slot to stay unbeaten.

    $14 Tix For OSU

    Let's see if I can make this easy to understand. The latest revenue figures I've seen show OSU made just over $110 million after subsidies. The same records show ISU made just over $66 million. These figures include both basketball and football. Really, they include ALL sports. Given our 8-0...

    $14 Tix For OSU

    The cheapest ticket you can normally buy in BPS, no matter if we're winning or losing, is $90. What's the cheapest ticket to get into Jack Trice, winning and NOT losing?

    $14 Tix For OSU

    Wow! You guys are selling tickets at $14-16 to pack your stadium for an important game. On the other hand, OSU is trying to pack the house for the TCU and Baylor games, by selling BOGO tickets for the two games at $150 per person. That's $75 per game. If you guys ever wonder why you bring in...

    Bowl Game still Alive

    According to the Massey computer's simulation of the remaining Cyclone season, based on the computer's probability factors, ISU has a 1.23% chance of winning 4 or more games.

    It's all about Big 12 level players...

    Our schedule took a hit when Air Force backed out of our home-and-home. We started 2014 against the defending national champions and started 2013 against Mississippi State, both of which are tougher than any teams you've played OOC in the last ten years. Next year, we start an home-and-home...

    It's all about Big 12 level players...

    Aside from our two OGs and our center, name OSU's weaknesses. Our punter was just special teams player of the week. Our kicker was last week's ST winner. Our defensive end, Ogbah was the national defensive player of the week, our starting QB was was last week's offensive player of the week...

    Next Coach Possibility (just putting this out there)

    You can go after Meacham and Fuente if you want, but they're both from Oklahoma (Fuente's from Tulsa) and know Big 12 football. As such, they're very unlikely to take ISU and it's recruiting problems as their entry into Big 12 coaching. Fuente can wait until KSU or WVU is available. Meacham can...

    College Football Analytics

    Looked it over. It's utter crap that relies too heavily on performance from the previous season, and I'm guessing recruiting ranking. OSU at #69? That's lower than we finished last year, even though we're bring everybody back, plus some highly rated transfers. Try harder.

    MONDAY MUSINGS: Season predictions

    LOL...no mention of a winning culture, but the guy has been one of the lowest key, don't talk good about the team to the press guys, every fall camp, for four years. This year, he's just short of giddy about how good he thinks we'll be. It's actually a little off-putting, like pod people...

    MONDAY MUSINGS: Season predictions

    Our offensive line problems began when our RG (Crabtree) went down against you guys. You could feel the gas go out of our offense, and you guys started hanging around with us. When Crabtree came back, and Rudolph became QB1, we looked like a new team: competitive in the rain against Baylor...

    Sam Richardson on Manning Award watch list

    Want to know why he's on the watch list? Who else are you going to put on it other than Boykin? The Manning people didn't want to completely stiff the conference, so they threw in old Sam. Who else is out there? * Oklahoma: Haven't named a starter. They won't put Knight on the list, because...

    NCAA puts Oklahoma State on probation for one year

    The irony is why the Orange Pride program was shut down, and why it may harm similar programs at other schools. There was no validity found to the allegations that the girls were being encouraged to sleep with recruits. Why they were sanctioned is for two reasons: 1: Les Miles improperly set...

    CPR red hot?

    Looking at your schedule, I don't think it's a stretch of the imagination to think you could win your first four game, only to lose all of the remaining eight. What would such a scenario do to those of you defending Rhoades? Would an eight game losing streak have the fans screaming loud enough...
