    AP has Kansas back ahead of ISU lol

    Not surprising. AP gonna AP. We played the new #1 team, at their building and kept it closer (by half) than any other team has there this season. Figures. Kansas still plays at Baylor and at Houston, so we just need to keep winning and we will be fine.

    ***2023-24 Mens College Basketball Thread***

    Don't necessarily have to cheer for Texas if the only reason is for helping ISU. Kansas still has to play AT Baylor and AT Houston. There is a real chance they lose them both. A third loss would possibly help us getting to Omaha, but I just can't cheer for Horns Down ever again.

    Washington DC Family Vaca

    Sorry, I didn’t read the entire thread, so a lot of this may be duplicative, but I’ve lived in the DC area for 15 years, and here is a list of things I always send to friends/family who reach out about visiting DC. I also included helpful tips about what locations require tickets (mostly free...

    Washington DC Family Vaca

    If you like history, hit up the Gettysburg Museum of history. It's insane the amount of stuff they have - not just Civil War history. They have a lot of WW2 stuff (including many things personally owned by Hitler), JFK personally owned items, such as suits and stuff, and a ton more...

    Morgantown, WV Questions

    I've been to this game a few times now and am planning to go again this year. It's a blast. WVU fans are awesome. The tailgating really reminds me of being at Jack Trice. We usually don't stay the night as we are just a 3.5 hour drive away in Virginia. We did stay there in 2017 - and this...

    Alec Baldwin indicted

    I guess my view is that when you have a gun in your hands, regardless of the situation, you are responsible. I keep seeing that "the rules are different on set", but I was taught in all the courses and trainings I have ever taken that you ALWAYS treat a gun as if it is loaded, and you ALWAYS...

    ***2024 Minnesota Vikings***

    I'm pretty sure McVey called all the plays. Like our current situation where KOC is the play caller and Phillips is the "coordinator".

    ***2024 Minnesota Vikings***

    I want Kirk back. I think he gives the team the best chance to win. But I also think that they need to draft a QB and start preparing for the future. I honestly think it comes down to JJ at this point. What does he want? After seeing the crap show that will be Vikings QB play without Kirk...

    Blowout win vs down to the wire thriller

    If it were any other game, I'd take a down to the wire thrilling win. Against the hawks, give me the blowout every single time.

    Will ISU make a Bowl Game? YES! Which One? LIBERTY BOWL 12/29

    Agreed. I don't care who the opponent is - other than I want the best chance for ISU to win. An 8-5 season gives so much momentum and hope for next season, both in keeping the players here and for all potential recruits. A few months from now no one will care if we beat a G5. They will say we...

    Will ISU make a Bowl Game? YES! Which One? LIBERTY BOWL 12/29

    After last season, the offseason this year, and our start to the season, I'm just excited that I'll get to watch ISU football sometime in mid-late December. Massive accomplishment by the players and our coaching staff. Building for the future for sure. Having said that, I want to play the...

    Gameplan for Late Night Kick

    I'm with the other east coast posters. A 10:15 PM start is going to be a late night. I'm actually more worried about keeping the wife and pets awake if I'm cheering or complaining at the TV than I am me staying awake.

    Iowa State - Texas to kick off at 7 p.m. on FOX

    Love this! Was really hoping for a night game. I'm coming in from DC for the game. Will be my first home game since 2019. Had to come home and send Horn$ Down off the right way. I hope it's absolutely freezing so them Texas boys get one last good taste of Iowa before they flee for the $EC.

    Hilton floor is for sale

    Honestly, whenever it failed, I would just hit submit payment again and wait. It just finally went through. No idea why.

    Hilton floor is for sale

    Yep, that's exactly what I did. Annoying.

    Hilton floor is for sale

    Finally got mine to go through. Took about 8 tries. I got a piece of the "Hilton Coliseum" Logo. I wanted a piece that would for sure have cardinal and gold. Curious what everyone else did?

    Future Big 12 FB Opponents/Schedule Announced

    I totally agree. I'm very disappointed that the streak against K-State will end - and think it is a big opportunity lost for the Big 12 to promote that and push it. Especially if ISU and KSU are amongst the top class in the new league. But I do agree that if we are 8-2 or 9-2 and UCF or...

    Future Big 12 FB Opponents/Schedule Announced

    Just thinking about this, I see your point. However, as CW and Blum pointed out yesterday on the Podcast - if ISU is 8-2 when they play, do we really care if they are playing UCF? Winning will draw the fans.

    Future Big 12 FB Opponents/Schedule Announced

    I just don't like that the longest continually played rivalry in ALL college football is going to end. While K-State is not as heated a rival as iowa, it's still been played 106 straight seasons - through WWII and Covid. I would have thought it would make media/publicity sense for the league...

    ***2024 Minnesota Vikings***

    Sorry, couldn't help it. Trey Lance does nothing for me. If Kyle Shanahan couldn't get anything out of him, I don't think anyone can.
