Given all those factors, I’d hardly be surprised if we win comfortably.

Oh they’ve surely improved. But putting them in the top 25 is a bit premature.

Agree. They are better though. How much better? We will soon see.

I'm not sure how far up the ladder 23 votes (this week) gets you.

FWIW (I know it’s early), we’re leading the conference in scoring defense and total defense.

It would be tough to ever be comfortable around a program with so many rape allegations.

I only watched Baylor a bit vs. BYU and their offensive weapons were impressive.

The ball went to lots of places around the field.

I'm looking forward to this one.

 

[CyGuy5]

Baylor’s WRs got locked down against BYU. We do that and we’ll have success on defense (although that doesn’t tend to be our problem)

My wife planned my sons 5 year old birthday party a month ago before we knew what time the game would be. Divorce warranted?

Never plan birthday parties on home game Saturdays. Or at the very least, if it needs to be on Saturday, wait until the game time is set.

How many kids? Buy them all hillside seats and snocones and introduce them to the Cyclone Nation

I feel like you have failed to train her, sorry, but your fault bud.

Oh man, I hadn't heard that term/dish in ages! Raw meat, often with a raw egg on top, has gone out of style.

Um, rightfully so! LOL

Ageed though. Let's serve up some bear steak tartare on Saturday!!

Raw, trimmed sirloin chopped, egg yolks, extra virgin olive oil, capers, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, lemon zest…

Served on toast.

What’d I leave out?

A short path to the bathroom?

 

[CyCloned]

I wouldn’t say begging. We have had 57k and 58k sold. Since Campbell hit his stride that’s about the low point tickets sold wise. This seasons team does not have the hype behind it that it normally does. That’s still historically GREAT attendance this season.

The price of everything going up is certainly not going to help with walk up attendance. I think it is smart to try and sell out as much as possible. Getting people in the stands might make a casual fan next year's season ticket buyer.

LOL. Well, there is that! Haha.

On the other hand, watching a replay, although not ideal, is not the end of the world!

I've done it before. And best if you don't know the score. 2nd best, know the score and we win. 3rd best and way down the list, know the score and we lose.

We are going to win though. Positive energy, positive vibes!!!

Spread has already moved 4 points in our direction, now a 2 Pt favorite.

 

[khardbored]

They just said on Murph & Andy that early line favors us by 1 point ... is that accurate?

 

[NWICY]

I'm really surprised we are favored. But we are usually more critical of our team than other people are.

 

[NorthCyd]

I'm really surprised we are favored. But we are usually more critical of our team than other people are.

And we didn't start out the favorite. If that's true and the spread has moved 4 points in our direction already that means sharps were all poised to jump on Iowa State to win this game as a home dog.

 

[Cloneon]

One of the post game commentators (Bruns?) mentioned after one of the previous games that they had LB’s in there, but a DL type was running over them, so they put Tyler Maro in later in that game.

I haven’t followed closely enough to know how that has evolved.

Notice the formation of the last punt. They moved the blocker to the line. Simple reason: to take away his length. And, it worked. Sure, there's more tuning and probably better prep to avoid this going forward, but adjustments were made.
