Need to get to a game there sometime soon. What do you think about the Norvell hire?

Intriguing. It sure seems like CSU should be able to get back to putting a Boise St level product on the field. Would be nice to watch a decent team in that stadium.
Need to figure out how to get a Home and Home with ISU!

I think it will be a good hire although I am not super familiar with Norvell. Last 2 hires were bombs for sure.

ISU now close to even with USF on territory (since Alaska is so huge)...

I like seeing that GIANT I-State logo dominating that map.

Upcoming Schedule for undefeated teams:

San Fran (BPI odds to win):
12/18: vs. Grand Canyon (56.7%)
12/19: @ Arizona State (44.8%)

USC (BPI Odds to win):
12/16: vs. UC Irvine (84.5%)
12/18: vs. GT, in Pheoniz (83.3%)
12/21: vs. Oklahoma State, in OKC (57.2%)

Arizona (BPI Odds to win):
12/15: vs. Northern Colorado (98.5%)
12/22: @ Tennessee (31.7%)

Baylor (BPI Odds to win):
12/18: @ Oregon (64.7%)
12/20: vs. Alcorn St (98.7%)

LSU (BPI Odds to win):
12/29 @ Auburn, only real chance of a loss before Jan (43.7%)

Colorado State (BPI Odds to win):
12/18: vs. Tulsa, Fort Worth, TX (62.6%)
12/21: vs. Alabama, Birmingham, AL (25.0%)

So... not out of the question for Jan 1st vs. Baylor to be a match up between the last 2 undefeated teams in College Basketball....

Cool, thanks for compiling.

I have to update my list above, I had it as USF at GCU, it's actually neutral (although close to a home site for GCU).

For the purpose of ISU being among the last unbeaten, I'm in favor of USF losing one of the next two, but going on to win WCC title instead of Gonzaga, for something unique.

So it's conceivable January 1 could be for last man standing?

Is it crazy to say if we beat then #1 Baylor at home on Jan 1st (which is a Saturday) to go to 13-0 we'd be the #1 team in the country when the Polls are released on Monday, 1/03?

Thats just so crazy to even write that but it may be true...

There are probably a couple of AP voters that would still leave ISU off of their ballot.

Since KenPom has Memphis, Iowa and Xavier well ahead of ISU, it looks like an ISU win over Baylor would put ISU no better than 4th.
