    2016 bold predictions

    Okay, though late, I'll have a go at this: At the end of the bowl season, Coach Campbell here's from every power five school whom have recently fired their head coach do to dismal results, and after ISU's remarkable 11-2 season, (including the major bowl victory). CMC announces that he has...

    Why do we use EIU Colors?

    Noticed this too, but really think it is trivial. In a related note, I've seen ISU tees, and sweats advertised on Cyclone clothing sites which use black as a color. I even saw a tee shirt offered which was black with an arched "Iowa State" in gold across the front.

    WILLIAMS: Why I am so excited for the season

    Love this site TOO!! Everyone in my family are Hawks, I'm the LONE CLONE. To add insult to injury, I live (exist) in Omaha where the local rag's football coverage is all about Nebbie, B1G, and Iowa in that order. Fanatic is my home. I love it!!

    Iowa State vs. UALR Predictions

    Bad feeling number three here. Slow down teams who play great D are always a pain for ISU. Just hope, in the end, I don't feel that pain for real.

    Troy Davis in CFB Hall of Fame

    Omaha World Herald article this morning mentioned that Troy was recruited by Mc Carney which is and is not true. Walden recruited Troy initially as I remember it, but Dan had to recruit him all over again to keep him at ISU. I'm glad he did. I remember ISU's last game of the Walden era at...

    Hilton Tonight

    I remember all of those because I'm old too. But as far as Hilton goes there really is something magical about that place. Can't explain it further than that - just simply love it! For this game I wasn't there. I was at the game watch at Saints bar in Omaha. That place was kind of magical...

    Why is everyone so down on Thursdays Game?

    This. The game worries me to. Iowa is playing lose of late with nothing to lose, a lot to win Thursday by knocking off numbers 2 and 4. After ISU/Buffalo and watching the Iowa game on Monday, i'm convinced that this game is no gimmie.

    Countdown untill the beatdown!!!

    Exactly. I want my Clones to win, but I never set myself up for a possible let down and fall like the OP. No "beat down" is ever assured in this game.

    FT % after Game 3

    This is absolutely correct. If that % does not drastically improve there is a bad moon arising for the Clones. I don't understand why people think it is just a little annoyance at the worst.

    College Football Playoff Rankings (Nov. 10)

    I would like to see concrete evidence on this as well. I would like to point out though that not only do committee members TO and Alvarez have direct ties to the Big Ten, but a third committee member does as well. Tyrone Willingham has the following credentials in part: 1. Bachelors degree...

    Dear America - Iowa Doesn't Care What You Think

    From what I've heard the Iowa folks truly are defensive about their schedule which tells me that they do realize that it does in fact suck. But there is no doubt in my mind that if Iowa runs the table including the Big 10 championship they are in the play off. I mean really, with all the Big...

    Voices from the stands: TCU game

    Watching from my couch too when my two and a half year old granddaughter came up to me and pleaded: " C'mon grandpa, let's play ring around the rosy!" Her favorite game. I thought, wait a minute, that's what the Clones are doing - you know, "Ashes, ashes, we all fall down". So I joined...
