    What DirecTV channel is showing game??

    Well I kinda knew I was SOL when I did a program guide text search for "IOW" the other day. The c.com gets me thinkin, then back to SOL.

    What DirecTV channel is showing game??

    Yeah like DirecTV Comcast had more FSNets, Mediacom is just kinda mom and pop.

    What DirecTV channel is showing game??

    I wish cyclones.com wouldn't get my hopes up by saying it's on FSNorth. Yay October hockey is on saturday night. Mediacom (MN) sports pack is worth the $3.95/month I pay for it. A couple FCSs, two soccer channels incl something called a GolTV and no other FSNets. Lament.

    How ISU's recruiting is measuring up to the rest of the Big 12

    Look at BSU's page. I think they've had one four star in the last five years. e.g. Kellen Moore was a three star. Yeah yeah stars aren't everything but it is an interesting study, even if the name in at the top of the page also influences star ratings.

    ISU and LSU uniforms

    I believe what Iowa, et al have are called northwestern stripes.

    The jawing, celebrating, swagger...

    Not to interrupt the meltdown here but i honestly don't understand how corners seem to always be the biggest talkers. If you get beat, they score, and everybody knows it. Maybe it's the one on one nature of the job. Not into hockey or soccer, but aren't the goaltenders usually pretty low key?

    One thing I'd like to see more of on Saturday night

    But then we'd need fake turf. Which would not be cool.

    NeuLion continues to blow me away

    Sweet. The email I got was a creepy early 90s style HTML text only. You must be a preferred customer. I'll bet you also got to watch the first half of the UNI game.

    NeuLion continues to blow me away

    Did anyone just get the instant classic email? I think their head coder called it a day after the first CS103 lecture and declared himself an HTML expert. It's pretty groovy that we can stream all that content, but maybe they could put a little polish on the end product eh?

    James White

    Bingo. No flash, but he makes it happen. His trucking rating is 99.

    Finally, someone in the media defending ISU

    Mike Hlas (CR Gazette) wrote a nice piece last summer when realignment armageddon 1.0 was going down. Put things in nice perspective IIRC. Should be out there on the internets somewhere.

    After Four Watches (Long)

    Who made that downfield block on Horne's big catch? I saw the catch then the block, and thought to myself, wow haven't seen one of those in a long time (a downfield block). Lo and behold, it's followed by our biggest YAC play in what seems like 5 years.

    end of the game ball spotting...

    The spots all day were kind of strange to me. But I think that may be the way ref's always do it-- in a traditional broadcast or live game your attention wanders after dead ball. Sat night, the broadcast had no production, cutaways or anything so we were all focused on the spot after the...

    After Four Watches (Long)

    Maybe I'm biased because I was really impressed with him last year, but Jeremy Reeves seems to me to be one of the most fundamentally sound FB players I've seen in awhile. If he had 40 lbs on him he'd be an AA.

    Super Conferences

    I love my alma mater, but it's true, due to our TV draw and regional fan base taking ISU to the B10 will only happen if the lights come on and it's a choice between us and upgrading a CUSA/Sun Belt/MAC team.

    Super Conferences

    I worked thru some of the superconference scenarios in NCAA12 last night. It was interesting... I realized that the Big12+?? can not exist at the same time as a Pac16 or Pac18. The Pac16 might end up with quality programs BYU & BSU, but after that -- Hawaii? SDSU? UNLV? Nevada? I like the...

    Paul Clark article on Big 12

    Interesting contrast (in many regards) to Ubben's puff piece on Beebe from a few months ago.
