We're Going Bowling

  • After Iowa State won the Big 12, a Cyclone made a wonderful offer to We Will that now increases our match. Now all gifts up to $400,000 between now and the Final 4 will be matched. Please consider giving at We Will Collective.

Nobody talks about facing Virginia Tech in Orlando. I think that would be cool. Better than most of the other ACC teams. Notre Dame with a 10-2 record isn’t gonna happen I don’t think.

I could be wrong, but I think Camping World may have 1st shot at Notre Dame after the NY6.

You know you've become a spoiled brat (me) under Campbell when you yawn at the 6 win mark. Love this staff and all theyve done for us!

Will be interesting to see if OU can work their way into the CFP or not. If they do and Baylor heads to New Orleans, we could work our way into a return trip to the Alamo Bowl.

Assuming they don't:

Sugar - OU
Alamo - Baylor
Camping World - ISU
Texas - UT
Liberty - OSU
Cheezit - KSU
TCU could work their way into a lower bowl.

Looks like Bedlam will be a huge game, not just for ISU

Heard in the lots after the game, "Grab your balls we'going bowling". Better song than Sweet Caroline.

ESPN guys updated projections:

Academy Sports + Outdoors Texas Bowl
NRG Stadium, Houston
Dec. 27, 6:45 p.m., ESPN

Schlabach: Iowa State vs. Texas A&M

Camping World Bowl
Camping World Stadium, Orlando, Florida
Dec. 28, noon, ABC

Bonagura: Notre Dame vs. Iowa State

Either of those would be about as good as possible siting at 6-4 right now. Personally, watching the Cyclones stomp ND is a trip I’d figure out how to make work

Allegiant flies to Orlando/Sanford from Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, Moline, Omaha and Sioux Falls. Cheap airfare (relatively - still holiday premiums) and easy airport to navigate.

Not to mention several other cities in FL.

All you weenies ******** about crappy Big XII bowl destinations (and I'm one) have no excuses if this happens!

And those flights will end up being stupid expensive as soon as the games are announced...

They're kinda expensive already. $500 was cheapest I could find to any of those "close" FL airports. It's just not a travel friendly date with the holidays close. I can easily find plenty of international flights for that price, let alone want to pay that amount for another Florida trip. Going to be hard to want to swing for that game.
