    The Cyclone's Best Player is......

    Todd is the best player on the offensive side of the ball and JJ may be there soon, but I do not think that Blythe imacts the game enough times to be our best player. I would like to see him touch the ball 6 times AND have 10 passes thrown his way with at least 1 or 2 thrown deep.

    The Cyclone's Best Player is......

    While we will have a much better idea of who our best player(s) are after the Iowa game, right now I believe that we have 2 playmakers on Defense and they would be our two best players. They are imho Alvin Bowen and Allen Bell. Right now I give the edge to Bowen as he is always around the...

    ISU vs. Northern Iowa what to watch for

    They go 300+ with four seniors and a junior on the offensive line....Yikes. The defensive line has got top step up. Left Tackle 77 Chad Rinehart (6-5, 308, Sr.) Left Guard 71 Bob Swift (6-6, 315, Jr.) Center 62 Eric Hoffman (6-5, 301, Sr.) Right Guard 69 Barret Anderson (6-3, 315...

    Still wondering what happened to names on jerseys?

    I agree with this, if I am watching a team I dont know well, I want the name on TV. Do you think that incoming players and recruits think about that at all? I am still up in the air, I will wait a couple more games.

    ISU vs. Northern Iowa what to watch for

    I do not even know who UNI's kicker is, but I bet that he hasnt missed two field goals that would have won the big 12 North. Kicking Game: Edge UNI

    Rooting against Blowhard Brewster

    I agree ColoradoClone, I think that at the end of the day the Gophers will have the better year because they have a bunch of patsies on the schedule, they cant lose to every bad team....can they? At the end of the day, you need to have a guy who can coach on Saturday. For all of Brewsters...

    Rooting against Blowhard Brewster

    Also, if someone could get me an electronic copy of it, I would appreciate it. I tried to download it off of the Star Tribune's website but it wouldnt let me. Sounds like the wallpaper of the week.

    What's most important to Chizik?

    Gene is going to do things his way. I would guess that he wants to win every game and he believes that his way gives him the best chance to do it now and in the future. If I had to pick one, I think that it would be number 4. That MAY be priority number one, but the priorities are probably so...

    Rooting against Blowhard Brewster

    Yeah, I have a great source in the department as well on the same info. I could add that to my rant above if you want me too :)

    Still wondering what happened to names on jerseys?

    Agreed. It did kind of suck that some of the numbers were obviously wrong. Aleen Bell is the perfect example. Add the depth chart (It is probably in there, I will walk into my bathroom and find out) and make it more convienent.

    Rooting against Blowhard Brewster

    I live in Minneapolis and listen to KFAN a local sports radio station up here a lot. A while back as I am sure has been discussed on this board, Tim Brewster said that he was the Cyclones top choice. At first I laughed, then I was a bit upset, but how could I be too mad, WE GOT CHIZIK...

    Still wondering what happened to names on jerseys?

    I am still a bit undecided on the lack of names on the back of the jersey. I thought that it would make a little tougher to follow the players, but I think that I may follow it closer as I had to think about it a little more. I will report back.

    ISU vs. Northern Iowa what to watch for

    Cloneaholic, I agree that our defense may have a good opportunity against UNI. I felt like the d-line was a little bit timid focusing a little bit too much on containment and not enough aggression towards the ballcarrier (be it the QB or RB) Maybe with a quarterback who isnt quite the threat...

    ISU vs. Northern Iowa what to watch for

    They say that teams make thier biggest improvement from week 1 to week 2. We will have to if we want to beat UNI. We will also see how Chizik handles early adversity. He has been in the perfect spot the past few years, yeah I am sure he has taken some heat, but he was never the face of a...

    Nafta coming to fruition

    You guys are right. Sometimes I think that some people just dont get it. We HAVE to know who is coming into our country, where they are going and that they are peaceful, law abiding, tax paying people who are an asset to society and that they go home when thier time is up. More importantly...

    ISU vs. Northern Iowa what to watch for

    It will be interesting to see what units make the biggest strides from game 1 - game 2. Hopefully Chizik and make some tweaks scheme wise to help with some of it, but much will be on individaul players. In the secondary the juco Allen Bell looked solid as a corner. He also had a great kick...

    Fantasy drafting opinions

    I would go with either Addai or Larry Johnson. Johnson has scored 19 and 21 tds (I think) the past two years and could do it again. I think his downside is around 15 tds. Addai is the sportscar type pick and could produce huge results. I am not sure if his top end is quite as high as LJ, but...

    ISU vs. Northern Iowa what to watch for

    After a tough loss on Thursday we must bounce back strong against a in-state opponent. I like the commitment to run to a certain extent, but establish the run and then focus on a more balanced attack. We will have to run the ball in Big 12 play, but in crunch time you need to pass to get...

    Shaggy has to go...

    So THREE YEARS AGO he made a 53 yarder......in PRACTICE. Lets see...In that time he has blown 2 Big 12 North titles. I do not think he is getting enough heat.

    Shaggy has to go...

    How can we expect to win ANY close games if we have a kicker that crumbles under the pressure. I would trust the team going for it on fourth down more than a kick under pressure. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. Shaggy has fooled us twice in games that would have...
