Here is Part 2 with another set of players to guess. Good luck! Take it now.

I live near the CR metro area…. is it too late to put down the fall/winterizer application? Wasn’t sure since there’s been several hard freezes.

On Thursday's Daily Clone, T.J. Otzelberger talks about his top-20 ranked 2026 class and excited he is for them to be on campus. He also shares what the current freshmen class of Killyan Toure, Jamarion Batemon and Dominykas Pleta are doing to impact winning. Plus, how Blake Buchanan is elevating his game. Hear from Audi Crooks on her school record 43 points in Iowa State's win over Valparaiso.

I did some digging to look at the top five single game scorers for the Sisters. Who are they and what did they do? Here's a look.

Jake Brend, Ben Hutchens, and Rob Gray take advantage of Iowa State’s bye week to discuss ISU President David Cook, the Lipsey-Morris parallels, basketball rotations, bowl projections, and more. Presented by Kelderman Manufacturing.

Enjoy!

43 points in 20 minutes is impressive. Setting a school record during a "flu game" is on another level. Jake Brend covered Audi Crooks' 49-point performance in the 2022 1A State Championship and had déjà vu tonight.

Watch Brend's full report from Hilton Coliseum below.

What a night at Hilton Coliseum.

Watch everything Bill Fennelly, Audi Crooks and Addy Brown said following the record-breaking night. https://cyclonefanatic.com/2025/11/...s-and-addy-brown-after-record-breaking-night/

It wasn't always pretty, but there were still lots of good things to come out of this one.

Game Night was just added to Netflix. I couldn’t be more thrilled. This movie is wildly underrated and just so fun and funny. There are scenes in this I’ll rewind because I’m laughing so hard.

What is one movie you’ll watch even if it’s not the best movie ever but for some reason you just vibe with it.

This week following a satisfying Cyclone football victory we are looking for songs with title or lyric mentions of the word satisfy and all of its various forms.


“On That Note” is presented each week on Cyclone Fanatic by @MeanDean, @cyclones500 and myself.


Last Week: Too Early, Too Late

For true Cyclone fans this should be an easy one. Let's see if you can tell the ISU player from a picture. Take the quiz now.

What a trash piece on BYU!
Would be great to get 2-3 in playoff.!!


Legend has it that after the angel Moroni showed Joseph Smith the golden plates upon which the Mormon Church was founded, he also warned Smith to make sure to heed the oft-forgotten inscription located on the scratched up backside of the plates: "BEWARE THE COVETED FIFTH SPOT LEST IT BITE YOU IN THE BEHIND IN LUBBOCK."

On Wednesday's Daily Clone, Jake Brend shares some information about new Iowa State President David Cook, looks at where the Cyclones are currently projected to go for a bowl game and how much Rocky Elam loves wrestling in Ames.

Anyone else locked out of twitter? it is asking me to re-enroll a key that I have never had, nor never enrolled in the first place:

Chris Williams and Brent Blum discuss Iowa State naming David Cook its new president and why they like the hire. Iowa State rolls Mississippi State as the pieces come together. Looking around the Big 12 and taking mailbag questions. Presented by Mechdyne.

Enjoy!

I know I said I'd wait a day or two, but I lied. Next up is another all-timer with an incredible list of films: Alfred Hitchcock. Please pick only feature films.

His full-length features are as follows, but note he had a LOT between 1925 and 1940ish...but not many would have seen them. If you have, and one of them is in your top 5, by all means add them. I started with what is considered when he became popular. I have a feeling a lot of the same will be the top five, but the order of the five will be interesting. I also know his movies are old, so not be very many responses to this one. Alas.

I can't get enough of all of the Northern Lights photos from last night. Show us what you got. Figured it deserved its own thread.

For those that missed it, tonight is the peak and should be even better than last night!

Dylan Coon and Nigel Dyson react to No. 16 Iowa State’s thumping of Mississippi State. Tamin Lipsey took control as some of the new faces made some big-time plays. What is this team’s identity? All this and more!

Enjoy!

This is a team with a new head coach. One who has been very successful at other levels and is doing a major rebuild. Valpo is 0-2 on the new season and will likely struggle this year as they’ve loss both by an average of 34 points. So far, they’ve been prone to giving up big runs and digging holes. They are led by Fiona Connolly who is averaging 15 per game. They aren’t afraid to chuck up threes with only Allia von Schlegell having a decent make percentage. Expect more of that tonight. Their defense appears to be sketchy at best as they are giving up nearly double the number of their own baskets made (yes that is also because of their bad offense) as they make about 18 per game while giving up 34. They are giving up nearly THIRTY turnovers per game. I suspect our pressure defense will ensure that number continues. Don’t expect this one to be remotely close, but thats why they play the games.
