    Heartland podcast

    If you have a half-hour to spare, this is a very interesting podcast on Big 12 football. Talks about ISU's chances for playoffs, and Campbell's chances for staying at ISU...

    Face mask or face shield?

    I just ordered a face shield and it's a thousand times more comfortable for me than wearing a face mask. Got some strange looks today while going to a few stores but the thing is so comfortable that I forget I have it on. It seems like research is showing it's as effective, if not more...

    Pedestrian Bridge

    I knew the Athletic Department was planning a pedestrian bridge over University Boulevard, but I had no idea the bridge would extend all the way to the stadium's east concourse. That will be really nice for both the pedestrians and the cars! This will be presented at the February Board of...

    K State Liberty Bowl

    I hate rooting against a Big 12 team in a bowl game, but I'm rooting against K State right now. They're trailing Navy 10-7 early in 2nd quarter.

    3 point shooting vs Michigan

    Part of the problem who is shooting them. Nixon's awful 3 point percentage certainly doesn't dissuade him from continuing to hoist them up. If you're a guard who is not a threat from the outside, life becomes really difficult. I worry that the book on Iowa State is already out - sag in and...

    Bring a raincoat to your tailgate

    Looks like most forecasts are calling for a cool wet early morning (upper 50's) but hopefully the weather will get nicer as the day goes on. I love the cool temps for a first game, but I hope meteorologists are wrong on the precipitation. Don't like eating breakfast in the rain!

    TV reception for tailgating

    Anyone have a good suggestion for a regular over the air TV antenna so we can get ballgames on TV while we're tailgating? We have Mediacom at home so no satellite. Tried 3 different antennas last season but none of them could pick up ABC.

    San Antonio weather forecast

    I know it's still very far out, but the weather forecast doesn't look great. Don't think I'll be packing lots of shorts. Here's what it says for game week: Wed: 61 and 80% chance of rain Thurs: 63 and 80% rain Fri: 61 and 20% rain Sat: 59 and 60% rain Happy the game is indoors! Will pack an...

    Crazy prediction for Texas game

    I'm gonna go WAY out on the limb and predict the x-factor in this game is gonna be Re-al Mitchell. CMC has been keeping him under wraps, and there are four games left in the season, just enough so that Re-al won't burn a year of eligibility. Texas has no film on Re-al, and I doubt he is...

    Schedule a contingency game?

    Here's a crazy suggestion. Iowa State and Nebraska should get together and announce a December 1 'contingency' game at Arrowhead. The game would automatically be cancelled if either team qualifies for their respective conference championship game. Gate receipts would be evenly split...

    Nick Weiler-Babb = Joel Lanning

    Nick Weiler-Babb has become the Joel Lanning of Iowa State basketball. He agreed move to a new position and he has exceeded everyone's expectations at that position. Like Lanning, he's become a stat sheet stuffer. Points, assists, rebounds. He has made his team significantly better. Jackson...

    Campbell's impact on Big 12 is profound

    He and his staff have created the kryptonite for the standard Big 12 fast break spread offenses. His "double cloud" (i.e., 3-man front/8-man zone) defense has dumbfounded the most explosive offenses in the Big 12. You can bet the rest of the conference is studying ISU video closely. My...
