    football playoffs

    I like the idea, but I don't know if, or how long the bowls could survive in that climate. I think you'd probably have to stage the playoff games on campus...can you get enough fans to travel to what could amount to four separate bowl games otherwise? So if you are playing the playoffs on...

    Official Alamo Bowl thread - MU vs NU

    wow, tons of empty seats there as well from those views during the coin toss...not good, wasn't the Alamo Bowl struggling to keep going a year or two ago as well?

    Official Alamo Bowl thread - MU vs NU

    Wow, can't even say anything bad about the defense, just an amazing catch. Both feet too!

    Official Alamo Bowl thread - MU vs NU

    I think he's calling the game, but I'm not sure. They were talking about him and showing the o-coordinator, but I wasn't paying enough attention to remember now if it was actually him or a sub, but I thought it was him.

    Official Alamo Bowl thread - MU vs NU

    ...or, it's more fun to talk about/debate a game with the other side, than your own side and like-minded individuals, as long as you're civil and a good guest. Unless, of course, some fans that have been running a lot of smack about a certain conference would be embarssed by losing a game to...

    Official Alamo Bowl thread - MU vs NU

    Am I mistaken, or does this game have just as much to do with Iowa as it does with Iowa State?

    Big 10 Stinks -

    Excellent post. Finally somebody points out the real reason ISU would be better off in the Big 10. I don't think they would have had much more success this season, maybe could have picked off Indiana or Minnesota at the end of their tailspin (I really think ISU should get a series going with the...

    freezing rain has begun here in Des Moines

    Thursday Winter Storm

    Tomorrow night nothing will be falling. Everything should be out of your route by 7-8AM tomorrow morning, so it just depends on how much faith you have the road crews to get every thing cleared out.

    Thursday Winter Storm

    Yes, they (ames) aren't making any sense. Everything from the local media outlets, AND the national weather service has been slowing things down all day. The warnings were pushed back to 4PM much earlier than 11:30 and now to 6pm. If they truly didn't make the call until 11:30 and didn't have...

    Thursday Winter Storm

    It looks like you'll probably just barely be okay, just hope you aren't delayed taking off. And I agree with 112, the schools probably decided to let out last night, or very early this morning, on the previous, faster forecast.

    Thursday Winter Storm

    Plus, when the rain actually freezes on the streets and power lines and such, the freezing process will release latent heat from the water, and can actually raise the air temperature a degree or two, so a freezing rain event at 31 degrees, can actually defeat itself by raising the temps above...

    Thursday Winter Storm

    You can also have super-cooled raindrops. This is where the temperature of the water is actually less than 32F, but while it is falling will actually remain in water form, not turning to ice until it comes into contact with a surface that is below freezing. The concept of super-cooled water is...

    Tuesday Snow Storm

    The "bug" temperature is the current temp downtown at the station I believe, while the "official" temps come from the weather reporting stations out at the airport. I believe the reason for the difference is they can access the studio temps continuously, while if you check out the weather...

    Hawk fans - try to defend this

    That's completely ridiculous. The Iowa rivals board has always struck me as a bunch of classless idiots. In fact, that's what I get from all of the rivals boards, they all seem to be the lowest common denominator of posters, CR included. There are some good posters, but it seems like the...

    Yeah, but then he can turn around and boot the most routine grounders......they still need at least one RH impact bat for 3B and I'm afraid after all the talk and admissions from the GM and Gardy that they need to add offense, they'll end up in spring training with the exact same lineup.

    Hey Bader, When/where is that quote in your sig of Gardenhire from? Thank god the Twins resigned Punto at the winter meetings, I guess this is what they meant when they wanted to upgrade the left side of the infield. :no::no::no: :arghh::arghh::arghh:

    Shonn Greene

    That's totally fine, in fact, I mostly agree with that, I just don't get the posters that apparently think 9-3 would be a complete, pie-in-the-sky, alternate reality, especially if Iowa got through all 4 non-conference games unscathed, which will admittedly probably need at least a couple...

    I don't get it. Well, one, obviously I don't think you read the whole post because I didn't say that is a lock or a rock bottom prediction, in fact, probably a best case scenario. Why would that be totally unrealistic? I thought the Big 10 is god awful. Do you not agree that Stanzi has made at...
