    Mid-season pulse of the fan base

    Given what has transpired over the course of the first half of the season+, taking into consideration the injuries, inconsistencies on both sides of the ball, absence of a kicking game etc., I have been seriously considering what might define a successful season at this point. The conference...

    Tom Fornelli is a clown

    A so called expert on college football for CBS Sports went on a national podcast last week and said he is still picking Kansas State to represent the Big 12 in the college football playoff. Also stated that he believes Kansas State is better than Iowa State and played better than Iowa State in...

    Former Cyclone March Madness Tracker

    In years passed, I've started a thread to track former Cyclones in their new programs season- long. I didn't have the time this year, even though there are fewer guys this year (9) than in recent years prior. I figured since I'm restless still following last night's double OT loss to BYU, I'd...

    DeVries tanking for Iowa?

    I just heard the news that Tucker has been declared out for the season. West Virginia after losing to TCU tonight is now 1-4 since taking the Cyclones down in Morgantown. I realize that DeVries doesn't have a lot to gain monetarily by tanking the season in and then jumping ship to swim back to...

    Attending my first Cy Hawk game in Iowa City. What do i need to know/ be aware of?

    My wife and I were just gifted tickets for Saturday by her uncle who is a season ticket holder for hawk football. It was a super awesome gesture, but I find myself having a bit of trepidation about what I may experience in Iowa City while wearing cardinal and gold and cheering on the clones...

    Been watching non Big 12 basketball lately...

    And I think those pundits who think the Big 12 is overrated may be on to something. As fans of a Big 12 team, I fear we may all be high on our own supply. The other conferences, namely the SEC, are filled with teams at the top that will be dancing that have more size, athleticism, and playmakers...

    2023-24 Former Cyclones Now at Other Schools Tracker

    I posted this thread last year just as kind of a way to keep tabs on former Cyclone men's basketball players now lovers scorned playing for new schools. The goal isn't really to play "what if" but rather to be informative in nature. We as fans (or at least I do this) become invested in these...

    Kayden Fish Thread

    I just saw on the Cyclones official website that he is listed at 6'6'' 250. There's big, and then there's Kayden Fish big. 6'6'' 250 as an 18 year old Freshman is insane! Do we know if it's good weight? For reference, Robert Jones is also 250 lbs. At 6'10''.

    In need of a Corner 3 pod...

    Hey Jared and Chris, really curious to hear some of your reaction to the drubbing last night. I am a sucker for punishment, what can I say? When can we expect a Corner 3/Reaction pod?

    What's everybody got for the Cy-Hawk game?

    I grabbed Iowa State at +4.5. Public and sharp money really coming in on ISU currently. Some money coming in on the over to, which I took at o138. Not sure I really feel about it though. If Murray doesn't play, I don't know how this is a high scoring affair. I figure Iowa State will top out...

    Outgoing transfer tracker

    https://cyclonefanatic.com/2022/11/jayden-gray-enters-transfer-portal/ Connor reports that Jayden Gray is hitting the portal. First Cyclone of a few I'm sure. Lower rated 3-star defensive end out of TX. No other P5 offers besides Iowa State. I am guessing he was pretty far away from making an...

    Jeff Woody hopes we lose to TCU on Saturday

    For the sake of conference integrity moving forward, based on the most recent FARTcast. He mentioned that it would be good for the Big 12 to have someone other than Oklahoma make the CFP, to prove that moving forward, the conference is a still a serious contender without the two big dogs to prop...

    After some research, I've come around on Dekkers

    Currently ranked 1st in the Big 12 in passing yards, completion %, completions in general, and somehow tied for 2nd in TDs despite playing in the conferences worst offense. Yes, he also leads the conference in sacks taken and INT. But I have been overly critical of him down the stretch, to the...

    Time to call a spade a spade.

    This team is bad. I fear for what type of attrition we see this offseason. This snowball might be just starting its downward roll.

    Former Cyclones at other schools 2022-23 season

    25% Profit boost on DK for Iowa State/ West Virginia

    Wasn't gonna touch it, but with the weather situation, West Virginia down to 4th string RB (allegedly) and traveling, I am betting 2 units on State -6.5 boosted to +113 with this promo. Maybe I'm crazy, but felt a wild hair when I saw the number had gone under 7 and DK was offering the promo.

    3 games in; how good is the offense?

    Pretty good I'd say. The O-Line is shaping up to be the best we've seen in the Campbell era, sans the 2020 season, and they get some good push in the run game which is something we've maybe never seen. The RB room very good, and very deep, though I think would have some concern is J. Brock went...
