Tech fan here. Just wanted to come by and say congrats on your win this weekend. You guys beat us in all phases of the game, and completely deserve the success you are getting.

As frustrated as I am for our teams play the last two weeks I am happy for you guys. I really hope Iowa State can beat TCU this weekend.

Good luck the rest of the way. Hopefully you all stay healthy! Kempt has been a great find!

Wow! Can somebody capture this specimen so we can dissect him for experiments? I’ve never seen a humble Tech fan, ever. It’s pretty awesome!

I've always enjoyed watching Tech's offense. We wish you guys great luck in the rest of the season, too - and you're welcome here anytime!

While there are fringes / extremes in each fan base, I would consider the Red Raiders to be way more like us than not. Think about how we have been perceived in this state w/r/t football (although a lot of this is our own doing), and magnify it by a factor of at least 10 and I think we can then begin to understand our brothers in black and red and their seat at the table (especially when you look at who they are competing with in the state for recruits, attention, etc.). Similar sized agricultural and engineering school, with not a lot of going for it, (geographically speaking) and a general feeling of hate and discontent for UT and aTm. They have struggled to find their way since the Mike Leach firing debacle (who BTW made them relevant again). Their history points to a better overall football tradition than ours (most school's do though). All told, there is a lot that I can get behind with the Red Raiders (just not when they play the Cyclones).

I got a call from a Tech fan this morning that I know through work. He too was very complimentary and will be rooting for us , especially against TCU and Baylor. Said a lot of TTU fans are growing tired of KKs teams lack of mental toughness.

I have been a member of their rivals premium message boards for years.

They are more alike us than different and also tend to support ISU as a second team (at least the group I interact with.

I just do not post before or after when we play them in MBB or FB out of respect.
