Let's. F**king. Do. This!!! (Someone post the Lesnar clip please).

2017 was one of the best years of my life personally, and while I have been stuck in a rut/stuck in neutral in my life since 2018, 2024 is looking to be the year my life finally changes forever for the better.

What do they both have in common? Playing Memphis and in the Liberty Bowl.

That may sound odd, but since 2016 is the single greatest year of my life (despite ending HORRIBLY in November), and it began with that amazing Rose Bowl Game. So now you know what I am getting at.

GO CYCLONES!!!!

Once again, thanks Rulzzz!

Let's Take it To The Tigers!

Please help a miserable Cyclone feel better with a Victory!! I have a pretty horrible cold, congestion and sore throat past 2 days. Ahh, just took some night time medicine, better!

Iowa State 38 - 30 Memphis

Of the top of my head, Tampa is opting out (good for him) and Verdon is still out with injury. Those two out at the same time will definitely hurt.

Who are maybe some of the players the Tigers might not have available? I heard about Scates, and their #2 QB. Anybody else noteworthy? Did Scates have a good year for them at WR?

Thanks, Rulzzz! Apparently, this is also available thru ESPN+. Normally, ESPN content isn't, but they must have made an exception for bowl games.

While it will be fun to watch and hopefully win, a win or loss today really won’t matter much. This very young team grew in front of our eyes this season. I hope the team is enjoying themselves with this bowl game as a reward for all their hard work. There will be some players putting the pads on for the last time ever. I hope these players soak in as much as they can today and walk away from the game with pride.

I am already looking forward to next season. The team will only continue to grow/get stronger. I think the next 2-3 years have great potential.

So let’s enjoy the game. Let’s be thankful to the team for their success this season. They certainly have over achieved. Go cyclones!

Sure feels like a "bet the over" kind of game.

Thinking either both teams move the ball pretty well and its 45 to 35, or else Memphis struggles w those OL being out, and then its maybe 45 to 21.

Also expecting an ISU defensive score today.

Will say i am a little concerned abt playing at their place, and if ISU has a couple turnovers making it dicey.

I see what you’re saying but I’m not scared.
