    Ute fan coming Saturday...couple questions

    It's good, but if you want a real Iowa treat you'll stop in Marshalltown on your way to CR and pick up some Taylor's Maid-Rites. And don't put any goddamn ketchup on them, that just ruins it. Also, I vote that Black Market Pizza is the best pizza shop in town. Their Mr. Meaty is freakin...

    The Officials sucked

    You can argue that blatant pushoff and how it would have changed the game all day, but it doesn't change the fact that we lost. Good teams find a way to win even when stuff like that happens. Can't blame the refs for making AA overthrow ARob at the end of the game.

    ***ISU vs. KSU Postgame (Meltdown) Thread***

    Never been a huge fan of AA, always thought he was mediocre at best. He plays well if the game is going well and we have good momentum, but I've never thought he could be a "game changer" and get us back in the game if we lose momentum. And say what you want about his completion %, but I'd...

    Didn't you know? The mayor is a hardcore Pantera fan. Nothing is left to coincidence here on the CF boards... :jimlad:

    Not sold on AA

    Let's also remember this was the first game of the season, I thought he looked a little rusty, but much improved over last season. I thought he was checking down his receivers better than last year. The only thing that really scared me about last night was that second pick. That was just...

    Fox broadcasters

    +1 I never thought I'd see Iowa State on CSN Bay Area. Although my boss made the comment this morning that he thought it was the USC game when he first saw it.

    Iowa State #5 toughest Road Schedule

    My question is why do we always play Texas and Oklahoma back to back? I remember the first time that happened (iirc it was like 2002) and I remember Mac cried to the B12 about it and and they pretty much said "too bad, so sad, that's the way the cookie crumbles." But here we are, 8 years...

    DATE CHANGES FOR TWO 2010 IOWA STATE FOOTBALL GAMES

    Disagree with you... I loved the Thursday night game, and I would be willing to bet that at least the students loved it too...

    Texas Tech game next year

    I would think that's a pretty fair assessment.

    Number of ISU fans at bowl game?

    The stadium holds almost 74,000, my estimate would have actual attendance ~40k. I would put ISU attendance ~20-25k.

    Good barbers in Ames?

    Loved going to Monty's, especially since he is friends with a bunch of my dad's HS friends, and loved talking ISU with him... the guy has been there for 30 years and has seen it all. That said, hes barber skills are just average. My biggest complaint is that he doesn't wet down your hair before...

    First game on Saturday?

    the last 2 years we've done that it's been for TV. I'm guessing we don't have that going this year... sad, I love the Thurs night deal.

    Massive line/Wildcat await the Cyclones

    Its the same offensive line they've had all year, and their offense has sucked all year. And they're going to switch offensive schemes now? Haha I'm liking this more and more...

    nothing to do in tempe??? check THIS out!!!

    Hiawatha is a good guy and was regarded as the "funny man" of the FB team in his day. Yeah he sucked at VEISHEA, but I chilled with him at a friend's place one time and a few times at Paddys and he was a pretty funny guy. Hopefully he's improved in his 5 years, but I'll go either way to say hi...
