This question really helps me appreciate cyclone fanatic. While I pay for a monthly membership I understand a lot of people don't and it gives them an outlet for cyclone talk for free. every fan base should have a free message board, and I don't mean one that had a last post in 2016 like of a lot of the non-P5 teams.

I’d be interested as well. Spent 20 min earlier today explaining to my son why OU has the most annoying fight song in athletics. But I made the mistake of playing it for him and now it’s been stuck in my head for the last 4 hours.

Having the subscription option was probably inevitable. But CF did a great job by building the community in the early days. Having a product people enjoy makes things easier when you have to ask for support.

I have skimmed through dirt burglars in the past. It is not completely unreasonable. Half expect a close tight game against us. Half expect a Sooner blowout just by showing up.

Read through some of the provided sites for ISU commentary.

Small sample size as they don't seem to have much traffic but I'd think a football school fanbase would exhibit a little more knowledge of the other teams.

Boomer Sooner to the tune of Indiana Jones. Once you hear it ...

It’s Oklahoma fans, knowledge isn’t exactly a stronghold in that fan base or state. You essentially take the mentality of the worst Tavern Hawks mixed with 90s glory day Husker fans and breed them with Toby Keith and the Tiger King.

Yeah driving to the Alamo bowl I remember the huge sign driving by in that Oklahoma town that says “Home of Toby Keith”.

I like to go through all the team forums after the games. Its surprisingly quiet after dominating Wvu this weekend. Not a surprise when we do that anymore is what that shows me
