    The only valid question to the afore mentioned behavior is: Did he score with that line?

    Best game/celebration photos?

    Students are media saavy. They have watched enough ESPN Sports Center to know that the camera people love the scene of thousands of students rushing onto the field, swarming their team and generally going bananas. So why not take the opportunity to do it ourselves? We were entitled. The uofi is...

    Why the SEC needs another team

    I forgot to mention that the link points out the money involved in cancelled games, etc. Things I had not thought about.

    Why the SEC needs another team

    I've wondered from the start how adding just one member to a 12 team conference would work. This source clarifies that problem. Also makes me increasingly nervous that Missouri might be looking awfully good to the SEC, and vice versa, as the circular firing squad that has tragically become the...

    ***OFFICIAL BIG12 EXPANSION THREAD***

    So now the rumor is that OU, OSU, KU, and MU are talking to the Pac 12? Ah, what happened to UT, Texas Tech, and Baylor? Demographically, wouldn't the Pac 10/12 be a heck of a lot more interested in them, and throwing in a presently unknown 4th, than the Plains States Quartet, that together...

    Missouri Will Not Move to the SEC<<<

    I do hope Mizzou stays put. They are close, and the fans I've met from down there are as good as opposing fans get. If UT were really concerned with conference well being and stability, they'd be out in front of having the TV revenues divided equally among conference members, like the Big...

    So let it be written, so let it be done!

    What % chance is there that A&M will be gone within a week?

    50% chance by Labor Day. 100% chance by New Year's Day. They don't want to be in the Big XII, even though the LHN has been de-fanged of the high school broadcast issue that was the advertised poison pill for aTm. So the reasons for them wanting to go are deeper. Let them go, and search...

    *****The Super, Mega, Huge Big 12 Expansion Thread*****

    I dunno, Loras or Wartburg might be too much too handle for us. But the travel expense would be a pittance. Overall, I prefer BYU and Air Force. Oops, we need one more to get to 12, don't we? Louisville. Arkansas would be good, but still can't see them leaving the SEC. Especially now that...

    FOOTBALL RECRUITING: Okla. OT visiting today

    Exactamente!! If our coaching staff thinks he's worth a scholly, that's good enough for me. Maybe OU/OSU looks at him as a back-up if they can't get their first choice, or are thinking he'll jump at the chance to walk-on with them. O-linemen are usually pretty smart along with their athletic...

    Trade G7 for paved lot parking pass(season)

    Do they factor in how many years you have had season tickets, as well as what level of giving you are?

    If the Big XII folds where does ISU land?

    So the Big 8/XII survives the departure of one it's oldest and most storied members, and one member that wanted to be Pacific Coastal for 20 years or better, only to be brought down by the other TX schools upset that UT will have it's logo on broadcasts of TX high school football games...

    Testing the scoreboard!

    O.k, I'd rather have the south endzone bowled in (which must be in the future works as the new board is in the NORTH end of the stadium), but dang, I have to admit, I'm impressed as all get out with the new board. As tall as the top of the grandstand (less press box, of course) and makes the...

    Hawkeye fans name biggest football rivals

    I'm sure there is a portion of the uofi and unl fan bases that is ignorant of "their" team, just as I'm sure there are lots of ISU fans that would fall into the same category. They go to the games, or follow thru electronic media, and are most concerned with whether we win or whether we lose...

    Poll Which ISU Uniforms Do You Prefer?

    I actually like both the old and new uni's. Prefer a gold helmet, but that's just me. Keep the shoulder stripes, avoid the all cardinal killer tomato look, put fast, tenacious young men in them, and I'll be happy.

    Confirmed - Cael to wrestle in WTT

    O.k., I get the Hate Cael thing. I, too, felt gutshot after the news broke of his leaving us. I expected more loyalty to ISU. I think it's true he left because of competition. He wanted to compete for a team national championship--the only prize that had eluded him. Penn State came along...

    Iowa Offers Barkley Hill?

    Doesn't the ISU coaching staff have a policy that once a player commits to ISU, they expect him to stop accepting recruiting trips, etc., from other programs? If young Mr. Hill is accepting feelers (and that's not known), does that count as 'continuing his recruitment process with other...

    Iowa at ISU time set

    I'm pretty sure tailgating first became popular as an after game deal, to have something to do as the traffic cleared. At West Point of all places. Never fear about the starting time. We'll still be hauling dead-drunk hawk fans out of the drainage ditches when they stumble into them. We've...

    Just cause im bored: Big XII expansion

    Why would a team happy with it's income and the level of competition leave one BCS conference for another? Nebby and CU weren't happy with the money, and in Nebby's case, playing second fiddle to TX. CU has thought for decades it would be happier with the west coast crowd, like you know, man...
