BOWLING!!!

[Cy$]

Could happen then we'd be in Dallas. WVU only moves out of the Pinstripe (Big East matchup) if we lose to them. TCU would buy a crap load of tickets in Dallas. Houston & Dallas both know this.

With Baylor winning tonight, they'll be at 5-5 with Tech and OSU left...I can see them beating Tech. If that happened, they'll get picked over us for the Dallas Bowl, meaning ISU would likely get left out.

Wouldn't mind playing another bowl as long as it's good

Don't see Baylor beating TTU or OSU since they both have passing games (KSU's downfall). Yes, it could and may happen but right now I wouldn't pick them to win either. Tech is their best chance. If it happens, we could end up on the open market since Texas bowls will pick Texas teams and we won't be the "sexy" choice for NYC.

I see a lot of people saying wv to pinstripe because they would play big east team. It comes down to the order of picks. Pinstripe has second last pick. Both isu and West Virginia would have to still be unpicked for the pi stripe to have to choose between us.

I'm not saying West Virginia won't go to pinstripe. Just saying that pinstripe will take whoever they can based on the teams left unpicked.

"Whoever" is available also includes deals between bowls to get who they want and feel will bring the best matchups and ticket sales.

"order of picks" doesn't really mean much when teams are grouped together with 6 & 7 wins.

Holiday Bowl, here we come.

Have to beat WVU IMHO.

Hopefully..Hopefully...

Have to beat WVU IMHO.

Even with that it'll take some luck or some other odd factor.

Agree.

Heart of Dallas bowl. Please!!!!

don't think it'll matter if we win. 6 or 7 wins isn't a big difference

Luck and a good history of attending bowl games.

Big 10 won't fill all their tie ins.

Cap One...here we come!

TCU is not as attractive to a Houston bowl as you might think. They are a national team because their students come from everywhere (I think 50% are from out of state). Remember the lousy attendance at home against us.

Yeah, as long as the Big 12 has 2 BCS teams

Is there anything better than a month of Cyclone football coverage in the state without Hawk coverage as their season ends!!!

 

[every_yard]

Keep in mind a win next week and a loss by Tech to Baylor would put us in a tie for 5th. Obviously, a lot of possibilities yet...

 

[iowast8fan]

Extreme long shot, but I am praying for a BWW bowl in Tempe. I'll already be their visiting my sister, a hawk fan. I'm confident I would get her to cheer for isu with me if they are playing in the same town she lives.

 

[TedFlintKansas]

I don't care where we are playing

Meanwhile, somewhere in Lawrence, the two students who took advantage of Charlie Weis buying their game tickets are thinking to themselves, "Damn, I wasted half of a night of beer drinking for this?"
