    G7 Question vs. Kansas

    I've been going to games for 35 years but we've always parked in B4. Long story, short - we're going to be parking in G7 this year and not tailgating (for a variety of reasons that I won't bore you with!). Will we be able to get a spot in G7 at 4:00pm? Our plan is to pull in at 4,pm park and...

    Iowa State can stop traveling to rinky dink teams in minor cities now for away games

    Just my 2 cents but playing service academies in the non-con is an awful idea. Short prep for unique gameplan.

    Vegas Invasion of Cyclones!

    Iowa State fans are EVERYWHERE. I just went for an hour long on walk on the strip. When you approach other humans, there is literally a 50/50 chance they’re wearing Cyclone gear. it’s nuts.

    We get a mulligan!

    Two years ago this game was on FS1 and not even I had heard of the announcers.

    Gameday Sign Ideas Round 2

    Dan Wetzel, Pete Thamel and Pat Fordge of Yahoo Sports (3 of if not the 3 best CFB writers in America) requested on their podcast today that someone make a sign at Gameday that references how much they love the Hooray for Ames! song. Can someone please do this? They begged. They LOVE the song...

    Yellow pants suck. They suck. They suck worse with white jerseys, but they all suck. All of them.

    Not running Purdy in openers

    How about “he’s one of the best good throwing QBs in the country…at running.”

    Not running Purdy in openers

    The zone read and QB power is a big part of Iowa State's offense. Purdy is an elite running quarterback. He's strong, shifty and has a real ability to gain positive yards. The problem is, in their last 2 season openers (2019 vs. UNI and 2020 vs. Louisiana), ISU has not utilized this part of the...

    IOWA STATE TO BIG TEN?!? Dave Wannstedt thinks so.

    This "Alliance" is really like all of the neighbors on a street agreeing to not put up a fence. They meet, drink beers & come to a verbal agreement. But then 8 months later 1 gets a new job, sells & moves and the new family immediately puts up a fence because there is no signed document.

    Pac-12 to decide whether to expand within a couple weeks

    If I were leading Iowa State I'd partern with Kansas and aggressively try to get in the Pac-12. I'd rather be in the Big 10 but they have no reason to take us unless they're just being nice. We don't grow the pot large enought to rationalize our slice of the pie. While the same might be true...

    Big-12 / Pac-12 possible merger

    Iowa State has been in the same situation schools like Mizzou, Vandy and Purdue are in right now. Lucky to be in the league that isn't falling apart because your power brokers aren't leaving but instead expanding. In 1995-96 when the Big 12 was formed we got "lucky" just like those schools are...

    After much thought, my best-case, realistic realignment scenario.

    While true, aren't message boards built for speculation and insanity?
