    Who redshirts this year?

    Brian Butch red-shirted for Wisconsin his freshman year (despite being a five star recruit.) He bulked up a bit and by the time he was a junior and senior, he was probably the best true center in the Big 10.

    Bates Interested In Iowa

    I am sure Iowa State offered him a conditional release. It is pretty standard when a player is released, it is conditional that they do not transfer to a team on our schedule through the end of said player's scholarship. I also don't see him going to SDSU, NDSU, Army, Utah, UConn, and other...

    NFL: Lions WR Roy Williams traded to Cowboys

    Wow! What an offense! Marion Barber, Felix Jones, Terrell Owens, Tony Romo, Roy Williams, Jason Whitten, and a really solid offensive line. That is going to be an electric offense.

    Where does Bates go now?

    He's from Omaha. University of Nebraska-Omaha wouldn't surprise me.

    OFFICIAL POST GAME THREAD -KU vs ISU

    There are no moral victories here. The main reason the Cyclones lost was their red zone defense. Had one of the KU touchdowns been a field goal, this game could have been very different. They were a break not bend defense.

    Home & Home series with the Gophers??

    Two year or three years ago, I wrote the athletic director of the University of Minnesota, Joel Maturi, about this and asked why we don't do a home and home football series with the Cyclones vs. Gophers like we did for men's basketball. He says that they have played in the past but that...

    Best state of Iowa QB in the last 10 years?

    Who would have guessed that Sage would turn out to be the best NFL quarterback of the group?

    The Incredible Shrinking Register

    If you are not interested in reading the paper, that's okay, it's a free country. But why the vitriol? I for one read the Des Moines Register every morning and the USA Today at lunch. I really enjoy reading the paper. Think of how much of our info on cyclonefanatic comes from stories from the...

    Clayton Vette to

    I agree with Tornado Boy about the so called mama's boy, homesick theory being blown out of the water. He was so homesick that he is going to a division II school that is further away? It's frustrating.

    Impact of Wesley Johnson transfer

    My guess is he follows coach Prileau to TCU.

    Royce White to Minnesota a done deal.

    With Tubby Smith coaching the Gophers it is going to be a lot tougher to snag the blue chip Minnesotans like Wisconsin, Iowa, Kansas, and ISU have been able to do in the past.

    I got a cheeseburger there and it was fantastic!

    Bar Stool Econ 101

    I agree that this is funny but it isn't really accurate at all. To say that the poorest amongst us don't pay any taxes is completely erroneous. In fact, even though they pay a less total, they pay a higher percentage of their income. We pay taxes on more then just our income. The poor still...

    Free McGriddle

    I am pretty sure I would gain 100 pounds in a year if Taco Bell started to deliver (like Flying Burrito) or if McDonald's opened up their breakfast menu all day.

    So, at 6 wins, does Iowa go to a bowl game?

    The Minneapolis Star Tribune in the bowl projections has Iowa playing in the Armed Forces Bowl instead of the Pac Ten Number 6.

    I support the decision against Lucca

    Brilliant post!

    NDSU

    I don't understand the point of scheduling a NDSU. They are clearly a very good I-AA team. If we win, recruits and the media say well we should win against cupcakes and if we lose, then all hell breaks loose. What's the point?

    Iverson down to 5?

    In Rivals, if you click on Iverson's profile, he has two schools listed as high: Nebraska and Minnesota.

    Does the rivals board cite any type of source?

    I 35 bridge collaps in Minneapolis

    Oh my God!!! I took that home today at 4:45. I must have just missed the collapse by 20 minutes. How could the biggest, and most well used bridge in Minneapolis collapse?!!
