Some GTO's to get things going, since he is on "sabbatical."

Hilton should be rockin'. Wish I could be there. With the 11am start here on the West Coast, this will be a great way to kick off my Saturday. Go Cyclones!

Not much interest in the thread. People are expecting another loss.

Time for a bounce-back win.

I am not longer clicking winner as it doesn't work. Let's see where like takes us.

This team has the capability of beating anyone in the league, but it will take intensity on the defensive end, something that was really lacking against TCU (obviously). I'm quite sure that Coach Prohm made that point over the last couple days, and I expect the guys to respond. However, Tech is a team that can beat us even when we play with great effort. Just stay with these young guys. The experience is going to make them better.

Today will be interesting. Either the ship will take on water and they'll come out ala Wednesday, or they'll regroup and put out a strong game.

Matchup wise it will be tough but Tech is interesting too...they're groove may have been broken a bit this week and that may give ISU an advantage.

I'll still tune in...this ISU team is far from boring...seems like some are writing off the season and only concerned with next year because they might be good. This is a good test to see what Prohm can do, and to see if a team can put something together.

Kind of odd to make college kids out to be so dispensable.

Thanks Rulzzz!

Go State!!

We're going to go all Joel Lanning 2016 on these Red Raiders ...

How many posts should a gameday thread have between midnight and 7 am?

I'd like to see more development from Talley in this game. They could really use his athleticism on the defensive end. Same with Lewis/Jakolby. If they could get their shots clicking that would take some of the pressure off Donovan and Lindell.

Going to the game. Hoping the crowd is fired up!

 

[LLCoolCY]

Always excited to see ISU at Hilton vs a Top 10 team.
Curious how the team respond to Wednesdays TCU game. The team is young so a step back after a win shouldn't have been a big surprise in retrospect. I want to see focus and defensive execution vs Tech. I think the team responds to the challenge Prohm will give them.
Go State!

Go have fun and lets kick some Red Raider butt!!

 

[SerenityNow]

I am in Vegas this weekend, so I will place a bet on tech to win. That should all but guarantee a Cyclone victory, as I am not good at gambling.

I actually have a good feeling about today. We had been steadily improving until TCU setback.

 

[CloneGuy8]

Calling a cyclone win right now. These guys come out fired up after being embarrassed in Ft Worth.

He needs to play the four. He’s another guy allowed or encouraged to do what they’re not good at.
