Cyclones in the XFL

[JM4CY]

Is this head ref who I think it is….

 

[jdoggivjc]

FFS - can St. Louis do everything in their power to get nothing out of that turnover?

 

[Darius Bieber]

Brahmas kinda reminds me of last season’s Cyclones team. Defense looks tough but offense isn’t doing them any favors lol

 

[Die4Cy]

Good amount of stretch on these XFL jerseys. LOL.

 

[JM4CY]

Rose not in there this drive

What's the red hat official do?

I see him with an extra ball all the time…

 

[JM4CY]

Akers is San Antonio’s best player so far.

 

[Darius Bieber]

Rose just tackled Akers on that punt I think and they exchanged some words lol

 

[Die4Cy]

Mike Rose tackles Landon Akers on the return. Nice.

I was just reading up on the USFL (kicking off again in April) will once again have a season where teams have no actual home games. Last year, everybody played in Birmingham, this year, 4 cities will host two teams each. I just don't think they can go two whole years with teams that belong to cities in name only. You have to build fan bases.

Mike rose get a Super Bowl ring? He was on the training/rookie camp roster of KC.

This XFL seems like a more watchable product to me than what I saw last year from the USFL.

I tell you if I was going to make a list of Cyclone players I thought were going to make it in the NFL because of how they dominated on the field at ISU, Hakeem Butler would be near the top of that list. It's a little shocking how easily you can fall of the football map.

I think he belongs somewhere.

And he was 5th round XFL.

FOX Sports owns virtually all of the USFL, it's just a TV inventory generator.

Recency bias and Dwayne Johnson might be playing a factor here.

There was a spring league a couple years ago (2019?) that folded before the end of their season that was just terrible ball. This is much better than that. But you do need the fan atmosphere for it to feel like real football, IMO.

Yes I believe it was the AAF or something like that and Covid didn’t help.

AJ McCarron. No.
