    Moving forward to Tulsa

    I know. After UNI I thought it would be helpfull for the team to give this young team more time early in the season. Now I'm thinking it would have been better to let them play and get into a groove. It seems like maybe all the extra time might be making it hard to prepare. I dont know.

    Rhoads's Recruiting

    Fact is that last year we were the closest to being in every game since Rhoads got here. No 50 point blowout loses to anyone. The closest we came was a 22 point lose to Texas on the Road. We only lost by 15 to OU in Norman and in 2010 we lost 52 to nothing. Yes we lost the first two games, yes...

    First time in three years where I didn't feel ISU had much better talent on the field

    Re: First time in three years where I didn't feel ISU had much better talent on the f Im not sure there is a huge tallet difference. We are better at some "skill" positions but they were much better on both lines and there was the game difference. There were other problems too, but those are...

    *** Iowa State/Iowa TV Information ***

    Agree, needs sticky. I have to work Saturday but already have it set to record. Another note, is this the latest start time since when? I sure dont remember it being this late in the last 10 years.

    Standings prediction after week 2

    I think it will be a tall order, but possible. WVU, Kansas and Kansas St are all winnable based on what I have seen so far. I think throw in there Texas and Texas Tech as possible winnable games. You also have to figure that Rhoads will get his upset somewhere. 5-7 is probably more likely, but...

    There is a hope

    I don't agree with this entirely. I'm thinking 2008 when we started 2-0 with some wide margins of victory and finished the year 2-10. Also you can look at 2 years ago when we squeaked out 3 wins against UNI, Iowa and UConn to start the year; finished the year 3-3 with the biggest win in school...

    There is a hope

    I agree. The defensive coaches have proved they can make lemonade out of lemons in the past and I expect the same this year for the most part. I think Offensive coaches need to prove something. I'm giving them a pass for last game because A) they did change up some schemes from last season B)...

    There is a hope

    Ive avoided posting since UNI but there is hope guys and I think a good place to look is WVU. Williams and Mary doesnt compare to UNI and WVU was lucky to beat them last week. This week they actually hang with OU. Improvement from week 1 to week 2 is often the most dramatic of the season...

    West Virginia Struggling Against William & Mary!

    I was just trying to post this exact same thread. They will be down this year, anyone with a brain could realize that. Still not good press for the Big 12 if 2 teams go down to FCS teams in opening weekend.

    Preseason AP Poll

    Like I said I agree. Still people are quickly going to start thinking the Big12 is competitive top to bottom but not against anyone else if we dont start winning the bowls.
