[jsmith86]

We're doing a great job of winning bye week so far. Keep it up Cyclones!

 

[longtimeclone]

What channel is the game on?

 

[AirWalke]

Have we EVER lost to bye-week?

 

[CycloneErik]

We ARE Iowa State

Clone Zone isn't working.

Have we EVER lost to bye-week?

2003, probably. That year sucked.

 

[jsmith86]

Have we EVER lost to bye-week?

Not that I know of, but I'm only particularly well versed in cyclone football over the past 10 or so years. I know a bit about earlier history, but anything between 1910 and 1980 I am not the expert on. Maybe on of the oldtimers could let us know this one?

 

[alarson]

What year was it that the ISU band went up to BFE minnesota? Was that an away week or a bye week? If a bye week, i think that might qualify as a bye week loss just for going.

 

[cychhosis]

So our opponent this week is bi? Not that there is anything wrong with that.

We went to Luverne, MN in 2004. That would have been in late September, so looking at the schedule from that year, it would have been a bye week.

what is the line for today? I'm betting the under.

 

[SplitIdentity]

BYE is pretty good this year. I wouldn't overlook them, they're always a tough out.

 

[CyBer]

You should all go to the basketball game!

 

[CycloneErik]

BYE is pretty good this year. I wouldn't overlook them, they're always a tough out.

WHO KNEW!?!?!??! ONE OF THEM DIRTY HOK FANS HERE TO TELL US THAT BYE IS TOO GOOD FOR US!!!!!!!! ISN'T THERE SOME DEGENERATE B1G GAME GOING ON?


Thanks, man. That was a fun opportunity.:smile:

 

[cyowa]

Have we EVER lost to bye-week?

Yes, under Coach Dufus Donnie. At that time bye week was also known as Pacific.

what is the line for today? I'm betting the under.

I haven't seen a cybookie yet, but I heard the over/under was half a point. Sounds like a good defensive battle, but I'm not sure we can put a point on the board against BYE.

goddammit, fire everyone. herman's offense has been awful against BYE. Not a single point scored in 3 years.

See, that's just not fair. This year is his first opportunity against the BYE. Granted, he failed the first one, but it's his first chance.

yeah...yeah...yeah

Herman hasn't been able to even get a yard against BYE. That is some really bad offense. Thank goodness of Wally because his defense has been just as solid.

 

[brett108]

Have to agree. My Nord is really tearing up these bandits. Alot better than Riley Rieff and his air blocks.
