    ***2026-27 College Football (non-ISU) Thread***

    It's definitely more "daunting" on the surface than the actual records and general strength of opponents. At that time, Illinois was so-so, Oregon was irrelevant. FSU already was having success, just not as much so that season.

    *** Cyclone Fanatic Fast Food Tournament Final 4 ***

    It's trending that way, for sure. I'm somewhat surprised T-John's has such a wide lead so far vs. Wendy's. Still a lot of voting time left, so we'll see.

    JJeff is a !st rounder!!!!!

    What was the most recent consensus projection for J-Jeff's draft position? I haven't checked any of those for at least a month, the latest I remember he was like mid-30s to low-40s.

    ***Jack Trice Stadium/Hilton Coliseum alcohol sales thread***

    It has been a few years since I could attend a game at Jack, I had wondered if they ever adopted the snaking concept. The parallel line-ups vs. traffic flow should have been restructured decades ago.

    CMC's Best vs Mac/Chiz/CPR's Best

    And arguably should have won in '96. Wuerffel had a great season, but main advantage was being QB on a national championship team. To be fair, Hall probably should've ranked higher than 6th in 2020. He led the nation in rushing yards, on a 9-3 B12 reg season champ/B12T game runner-up, and...

    CMC's Best vs Mac/Chiz/CPR's Best

    TD obviously was legendary. Were the OLs for those teams better than they get credit? I have almost no idea, can't remember those rosters in depth and honestly my interest in ISU FB had waned a bit from early '90s until late '90s.

    ***2026-27 Mens College Basketball Thread***

    I can trust your assessment, so based on what's returning & incoming (not even counting what freshmen might add), I'd be completely fine with those elements. I wouldn't expect him to have any PG on a regular basis.

    CMC's Best vs Mac/Chiz/CPR's Best

    Valid detail. 21 seasons compared to 10.

    CMC's Best vs Mac/Chiz/CPR's Best

    It's difficult to decide on Lazard, since it's two years on each, he almost feels more like a "CPR guy," but his yardage/TD impact was higher in '16/'17. I'm sure it helped somewhat that 2017 was part of a better team overall than any of the first three years. Interesting to note, though, his...

    CMC's Best vs Mac/Chiz/CPR's Best

    Solid list. I admire the work you put into it, should be a fun exercise. If you’re open to collaboration, a few revisions on name spelling, depending on how thorough you want to be. Bret Meyer Quenton Bundrage Kelechi Osemele Kirby Van Der Kamp Derek Schweiger Will McDonald Dom Orange Kene...

    ***2026-27 Mens College Basketball Thread***

    Interesting tidbit from the ESPN report: (May is) the first college head coach to take an NBA job since former Michigan coach John Beilein took the Cleveland Cavaliers job in 2019. The last to leave college immediately after winning a national title was Kansas' Larry Brown in 1988. Florida's...

    I've been somewhat out-of-loop on CBB offseason, had there been speculation about that possibility recently?

    Looks like a "lateral design move." The numeral update is a bit meh, the partial pant stripe is dorky. Beyond that, looks about that same. I'm no fan of NU, but I think the basic FB uniform is fine. The W-W-R road uni is especially clean.
