    *** Official IOWA STATE Vs Kansas Gameday Thread ***

    If they can grind out a few wins in a row who knows. The talent and coaching is there. Clean up the mental mistakes in crunch time and we could be sitting 3-1 instead of 0-4. Last year Okie state started 0-6 then went on a great streak. Granted big 12 is much better but who knows. I'm not giving...

    This team

    Very proud of their effort. The Kstate game was a bit of a debacle but since then they've improved dramatically. Going into Allen field house with a chance to take a lead under 5 minutes makes me think they're very close. I definitely think they get Baylor at home Saturday and upset either tcu...

    Going back to school advice

    Hey, I've been working a few years following graduation in healthcare and I'm making great money but I'm considering going back to school for further education, specifically possible medical school or a PA program. Any MD/DO or PAs here that can shine some light on this decision? I had pretty...

    Where are you pre-gaming in Chicago?

    I dont know maybe because Murphys is an Iowa state bar, good thing I didnt preface it with "it is far from the UC so keep that in mind" Also, Wicker park is like a 10 min bus ride from the UC and there a ton of bars in that area so was just throwing out a suggestion. West end bar is where I'd...

    Tips for Chicago

    Be safe when youre walking around it is a big city after all but jeesh lots of people are expecting to get shot at or stabbed. Biggest tip to take away is dont act like a tourist and act like you know where youre going. If you're walking with "purpose" if you will most people will not bother...

    Where are you pre-gaming in Chicago?

    I live in Chicago and I'd recommend Murphys bleachers but its pretty far from the UC so keep that in mind. West loop has some pretty fun bars too. Wicker park wouldnt be too bad of a drive over or even public transit and would probably be a little less congested at 3-5 pm depending on when youre...

    *** Official Iona vs IOWA STATE Game(day) Thread ***

    Should be a good high scoring game based on how these 2 teams play. Iowa State: 88 Iona: 81 I predict a major meltdown in this thread during the first half too when Iona jumps out to an 8 point lead before the guys take it back for good!

    ISU/WVU post game thread

    We have also beat Iowa, KU, and OU. Solid wins against Texas, Texas Tech, Colorado. Despite the losses, we have some of the better wins than any other team in the country. We definitely arent great but we can beat anyone on any given night and considering how weak college basketball is as a...

    All about March

    Well just like last year, we will not make any sort of run if we dont rebound and play better defense. I hope we can but after seeing how this year has gone i highly doubt we make it out of the first weekend. Hope I'm wrong though.

    ISU/WVU post game thread

    I'm disappointed in what Prohm has done given the expectations, were going to finish 6th in the league despite being preseason top 5. However, I find it funny that were complaining about being a 3 or 4 seed in the NCAA tourney whereas about 5-6 years ago we were hoping to just make it in...

    *** #24 Texas vs #14 IOWA STATE Game(day) Thread ***

    Hilton seems sad. Not the fans fault but it's quiet and seems really dead in there.

    *** #24 Texas vs #14 IOWA STATE Game(day) Thread ***

    If someone could put a hand up and actually contest shots that'd be cool. This team is painful to watch. 6-9 point lead a and always allow 10-0 run by other team

    Our guys look pretty disinterested in this game, Texas players look confident

    Chances at K-State

    Does the team respond or fold here? Nobody on the current roster has ever won at Kansas State and I'm afraid that their first one is going to come saturday. Thoughts?

    1-3 in the Big 12 Meltdown Thread

    I think a lot of this is on Prohm. He looks just as lost as a coach as our players do on defense. Players looking lost isnt their fault, its the coach. If he is doing his job, your players will be in position. Prohm sucks, I am over the honeymoon
