    Cyclone Gridiron Club Coaches' Cook-Off - May 30

    This is a great opportunity to get close to the coaches if you haven't attended in the past. The 6th annual Cyclone Gridiron Club Coaches’ Cook-off, sponsored by Lynch Barbeque, will be held May 30 inside Jack Trice Stadium from 4-8:30pm. In the past, the event has not been held at the...

    The 2011 Big 12 is the stongest conference in the history of college football.

    You guys are ignoring what the Big 12 looked like before they started cannibalizing each other. Nine of the 10 teams in the conference are Top 40 teams, only one is a pushover. The depth is unbelievable. But way to go with the ad hominem attacks.

    The 2011 Big 12 is the stongest conference in the history of college football.

    For instance, look at how ISU would likely do against Nebraska and Iowa's schedule. Keep in mind how much Nebraska has been complaining about their schedule. Resist the impulse to automatically dismiss a couple of these games as wrong, because ISU's defense is a top 3 or 4 defense in the Big 12...

    The 2011 Big 12 is the stongest conference in the history of college football.

    It is hard to argue that this is not the best conference in history, including the SEC. 1. The conference's 7th or 8th ranked team beat the number 1-3 team in the country, Oklahoma, in Norman. Oklahoma had a 39-game winning streak in Norman, and had lost there only twice in the Bob Stoops-era...

    Texas A&M is 99th in total defense

    The Aggies' total defense is comparable to Texas Tech's in 2010. Both were near 100 out of 120 FBS teams. Texas Tech's offense was very prolific in 2010, but I do think A&M's is better. Nevertheless, I think this game has the feel of that game. I would not predict an ISU victory, but I think it...

    Criner / Walden-like

    Jantz is adjusting to Big 12 defenses. He looked so good against Iowa because they run a base defense throughout the whole game and only rush four. Blitzing defenses are an issue at this point, and other teams know that. He will get better, but without any time, it would be almost impossible to...

    Jake Knott unbelievable - Ubben ESPN

    What concerns me is that Knott plays with such reckless abandon that he could end up being like Bob Sanders from Iowa -- with his body breaking down. I love his toughness, though.

    Good places to eat in Ames

    Hickory Park on Duff is great, as are the aforementioned Battles and Great Plains Pizza.

    Beat Texas T Shirts

    Instead of "Beat Texas," I think we should go with something like the horribly inappropriate "Catholics versus Convicts" moniker from Notre Dame-Miami in the 1980s. I would go with "Blue-Collar versus Bluebloods," which would be a take-off from the entitlement that Longhorn fans feel with...

    Outland, Bednarik, and Thorpe watch lists

    After finding out that Iowa State had a player on the Outland Trophy watch list (OT Kelechi Osemele), the Bednarik watch list (LB Jake Knott), and the Thorpe Award watch list (CB Leonard Johnson), I thought I would check to see the other schools that have a player on all three lists. There are...
