Meanwhile ... CBS Top 130 (I-S-U!)

Damn near forgot, there's a football season coming soon — and Iowa State is top 10 material.

Thought I'd post this for a bit of distraction/uplift.

Spoiler: ISU is ranked high enough, we don't even have to click the link to "Teams Ranked 26-130" second page.

Three downs and a cloud of dust.

Don't think of it as dust. Think of it as maybe the soil for some great past civilization. Maybe the soil is ancient Babylon. It staggers the imagination. He may be carrying soil that was trod upon by Solomon. Or even a Nebuchadnezzar.

Sort of makes you wanna treat Iowa State Football with more respect, doesn't it? Maybe, we should get an invite to the SEC at six?

Hoks at 18? With Petras? Don't think so. Oh, wait... that B1G west schedule does a lot to make any team look good.

This is awesome! #6!!!!

Gridiron expert (YouTube) predicts us going 11-1.

Smaller channel, but I like him.

Still doesn’t feel like real life. Never want that feeling to go away.

What's scary is that we could be ranked higher. I think there's a pretty good argument to be made that we could be ranked #5 or even #4.

By the end of the season in late January, ISU will be ranked #1

While obviously preferred to be in the Playoff, if you could guarantee us another NY6 game like that predicts, I'd be really tempted to book it.
