    Cyclone Bars in Chicago

    Fizz is no longer an ISU gamewatch location. There are several good bars in the West Loop neighborhood where the United Center is located. Beer Bistro and WestEnd are both on Madison. WestEnd has a ashuttle to the UC for games, and Beer Bistro may as well. I may hit one of those for pre-game...

    McDermott's Coaching Strategy

    Jahfg and CTAclone hit the nail on the head: this all boils down to talent, or actually the lack thereof. We've got one, bona fide Big 12 caliber guy, Brackins. The rest of the roster wouldn't crack the top 7 for Kansas or Oklahoma. Until that changes, we're going to have more nights like this...
