    Williams & Blum Pod: Red alert on bowl season, Liberty Bowl thoughts & hoops wrap-up

    I want to point to the Myers thing as the biggest factor but I go back and forth. You'd like to think that a P5 offense could exert their will over a G5 defense even if the defense knew what was coming. But that may just be a fan level of hoping how things would work. Then looking at ISU's...

    Stadium construction ...

    I've been noticing sirens playing during all kinds of sports broadcasts lately. Don't know if they've always been there and I didn't notice or if more places are doing it. Numerous non-ISU college football and basketball games. Even noticed in some NFL games. The Washington Commanders were...

    In memoriam of Brian Ferentz as Iowa's OC

    Maybe she was offered and turned it down. After a year there, she might've realized that she could do better and the trajectory of the major sports isn't going to be good over the next few years.

    Future Big 12 FB Opponents/Schedule Announced

    I wouldn't be surprised if there is more conference realignment by the time we get to 2027 anyway so this schedule will have to be redone before then anyway

    Future Big 12 FB Opponents/Schedule Announced

    Thanks for this breakdown! So if we played KSU all 4 years, then 1 of the other teams we play 3 times (Cincy, UCF, OSU, WVU, and Kansas) would be changed to 2 times. I know that I would enjoy playing KSU more than Cincy, UCF, and WVU from a rival standpoint. BUT I know that I would rather play...

    Friday OT #1 - Jump the Shark

    Maybe a bit different than the original intention of question but I never missed an episode of Survivor for like the 1st 26 seasons. Loved the show early. But they eventually lost me and I don't think I've watched an episode since. Just got too repetitive for me; even with all the twists they...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    Maybe if Iowa only picked 1 or 2 protected like everyone else, maybe they could have a more even distribution of teams they play. Since Iowa picked 3 protected, they can point to themselves for part of the problem.

    ***2023-24 College Football Thread***

    Wonder if Fox wished they'd shown ISU v TCU instead of Wyo vs Fresno St.

    2023-24 Big 12 opponents

    I'd certainly be ok with that. Maybe ISU will get to beat them in front of a Hilton South crowd in the Big 12 Tourney.

    2023-24 Big 12 opponents

    Not surprised the Big 12 doesn't want to send Tyrese Hunter and his whiny coach to Ames one last time.

    Dedric Willoughby Passes Away at 49

    96 was the last Big 8 tournament. That ISU team is still the reigning Big 8 men's tourney champ.

    Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer TV Show - Not Allowed to Stream ??

    You can view the Claymation Christmas at Anyone remember the animated Christmas special with the mice and the clock and how 1 of the mice almost got Christmas canceled for the whole town? Called "Twas the Night Before Christmas". You can see a version of it at

    What’s going at Casey’s?

    They bought quite a few Pilot stations a year ago in TN & KY https://www.kcrg.com/2021/12/18/caseys-completes-purchase-pilot-convenience-stores/

    Wednesday OT - Thanksgiving Power Rankings

    I voted for pecan pie but even I totally agree with this take. Fruit pies are in a tier at the top all by themselves. That's why there are always fruit pie options at my family's Thanksgiving meals.

    Iowa Beat Writers

    What P5 schools are wanting to agree to a home and home with Iowa? Arizona again? Pittsburgh again? Colorado? Syracuse? Oklahoma? I highly doubt the top 25% of each P5 conference or Notre Dame is really that interested in playing at Iowa. What would it benefit those other teams except...

    How about a mid-season power ranking?

    Utah just made it into the upper right quadrant. Look just below the K-State logo.

    Campbell Still in Demand?

    By saying that, then you are agreeing with my point that comparing Purdy's sophomore year and Dekkers's sophomore year is unfair to Dekkers. My thoughts on the guys in the second paragraph are the same as for Dekkers. Their story isn't fully written and I am hopeful that during the rest of...

    Campbell Still in Demand?

    Purdy was a great college QB for ISU! He also had 2 future NFL running backs and future NFL tight ends alongside him during his time here. Plus, he started 50%+ of the games his freshman year so he had quite a bit of experience already his sophomore year. Comparing Dekkers sophomore year to...

    2022 Iowa High School Football Playoffs

    Cedar Rapids, Washington and Xavier were in the same district too if that makes you feel better. I guess the IHSAA opted to give the teams in that pod shorter drives rather than new opponents. If they flipped those teams, there would be potential for a team to have to go from DSM area to Cedar...
