    Special Teams Coordinator

    New Coordinator has a D3 background so he checks all the boxes with Campbell. Looks like a solid hire.

    Abu Sama named Gatorade Iowa Player of the Year

    I would say it was because Sama is/was a better football player at the high school level than Proctor. Proctor was an intimidating, dominant blocker but Sama did everything. In addition to his running stats (1,400+ rushing yards, 9.8 yards/carry, 30 total TD) he was a true lock down corner and...

    2022 Iowa High School Football Playoffs

    Well OK but LS did have first down on the Britt 15 yard line down by 8 with a couple minutes left in the game. They had a shot at least.

    2022 Iowa High School Football Playoffs

    I believe both Valley and Van Meter are practicing at the Rec Plex at least once this week.

    Nice job by ISU to allow this!

    Two in ESPN Top 100

    Last year this same list had Spencer Rattler ranked #1 overall, so take it with a grain of salt.

    EMAW tears in the morning

    "Sky rocking" is absolutely amazing. Can't stop laughing.

    Friday OT #1 - Back In the High Life Again

    I think about this every day. Work one day a week as a starter at a decent golf course...most offer playing privileges in return. Work every so often delivering flowers. Mother's Day, Valentines Day, etc. Everyone is happy to see me.

    The battle between Iowa high schools and state.

    I have a hard time reconciling that home schooled kids in Iowa have always been allowed to play sports with their local HS team. Now we have a whole district of essentially home schooled kids (albeit with professional teachers vs parents), and those kids are NOT allowed to play sports. What's...

    ISU vs KU - 11 am CST on FSN

    If you already have YTTV set to record any/all Iowa State games, then you could just check the upcoming recordings in your library. That's what I did anyway.

    Attendance today was subpar

    I was there, it was cold. This says 40,626 but guessing 25,000 actually attended. Everyone just sat there in cold silence after Culbertson missed that kick. The entire stadium went numb.

    Serious question from the Cougs.

    Wayne Morgan yells directly at the officials from two feet away, "This is crazy" and "I cannot believe this ****!" What else could he have done, in your opinion?

    $20 Tickets for the Baylor Game

    All true -- I think season ticket holders understand there is not really a price-point advantage for season tickets. But my reasons for buying season tickets are (1) there are a few games where I would have trouble getting a decent seat otherwise, (2) I now control where I sit and generally...

    ISU opens as 14 point favorite over Baylor

    Campbell is now 19-5 against the spread in Big 12 Conference games. Vegas notices things like that. 2018 = 6-0 2017 = 7-2 2016 = 6-3

    West Virginia Coach after the game...

    Oklahoma's main RB from that 1984 game was Spencer Tillman, who obviously was also the color man for our game on Saturday night.

    Iowa St to host Incarnate Word Dec 1st

    Obviously, no one wanted ISU to be backed into this situation, but once we knew we needed to find an opponent for 12/1, this is EXACTLY the sort of team I wanted ISU to play -- a poor FCS team. Getting freshmen and other second-stringers involved will keep all of them more engaged in practices...

    Bowl Game Projections

    My somewhat optimistic guess: Oklahoma 12-1 = Rose Bowl (Playoffs) Okie State 11-2 = Fiesta Bowl (New Year's Six) TCU 10-2 = Cotton Bowl (New Year's SIx) ISU 8-4 = San Antonio West Virginia 7-5 = Memphis Kansas State 6-6 = Orlando Texas 6-6 = Houston

    *** Official College Gameday (could be) in Ames Thread ***

    It wouldn't have to be an alumnus. Katy Perry did the gameday picks at Ole Miss just because her manager was an Ole Miss alum.

    Why only 30 games?

    Baylor had their entire non-conference schedule cancelled one season. http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/news/story?id=2093250

    MRed's Bracket Predictor - Where Does ISU End Up?

    Here's a very real possibility. One which would be the very worst case scenario for those looking to buy tickets in KC -- Early session: (4) ISU vs (5) OK ST (1) KAN vs (8) KAN ST or (9) OKLA Late session: (2) BAY vs (7) TCU or (10) TX (3) WVA vs (6) TECH
