You're just gettin' a little too excited with all this description, for some reason. And, no.. my school is Iowa, and all of my family members went there too. Parents on the old black and gold trains that ran out to the Rose Bowl in the 50's.. cousins that danced the swords as Highlanders...

Guess I've just been assuming that anyone who wanted tickets to that game individually had already purchased them. I mean, don't they have a bazillion tickets to sell to all the other season games? So many that if a kid buys a set, he's eligible for a DRAWING to win FREE TUITION to the...

Hope the kid can get whatever it is dealt with and get on with his life. Hate for anyone to have troubles big enough that they get derailed in what should be the track to a good future.

I don't think we should EVER lose to ISU. They are just not a football school. Regardless of whether we pummel them in our wins over them or **barely** lose when they beat us, it's just not a good sign for us to be beaten by them... at all. Saying we 'hardly' got beat or we 'almost' won or...

I remember that too. Very irritating. K-State kicked Iowa Hawkeye butt, and over and over we had to hear "And it's another K-State FIRST DOWN!!!" as it went on. I remember hating having my face rubbed in it, so to speak, but would enjoy it if we came up with something to use against our...

My favorite is Surf & Turf kabobs... chunks of steak with fat shrimp on skewers... grilled or under the broiler sides of your choice, but I love mushrooms in butter & wine with crusty bread to sop the juice up with whatever is my favorite drink... currently I've gone back to vodka collins...

Not a fan of the night games for college football. Just calls to mind High School football games under the lights. 1. Friday NIGHT.. high school games 2. Saturday afternoons.. collegiate games!!! 3. Sundays.. pro games The world needs order.

".....It's not only the ticket prices; it's the seating. Being shoe horned into a seat that sized for a 8 year old is a joke....." This ^ ^ ^ only made even worse once cold weather arrives and everyone is in COATS besides... :mad:

Oh, God! Nothing's changed! :D

Yeah, Nebraska will be fun. They are still *good*... I know they are a shadow of their former Tom Osborne days of the 80's and 90's, but the shadow is still good enough to fight some good fights and make a fun boarder rivalry for us. They are trying to whip that feeling up in the fans heads...

The **live experience** of being there on game day grows less and less interesting all the time. (1) Season ticket prices are getting too rich for my blood. Everybody has their breaking point. I'm there now. (2) Pre-game tailgate time isn't what it used to be.. the clamp-down has left it as...

Maybe the kids will try harder this year. I remember getting out of class, crossing the street to the Airliner for a quick beer, and then off to the next class.

The only thing I can figure is that the ISU fans know Iowa State isn't a **football school** and they're OK with that. They like watching the games anyway, and appreciate the fact that they play all the teams in the conference, the good ones and the not-as-good ones, and they don't expect to...

I still have my doubts about ISU being able to advance any farther with the loss of Niang. Thought Wisconsin played masterfully last night. Surprised at how impressed I was with them. Baylor looked like they had the worst game of their entire season and on the very worst night that could have...

I don't put much stock in this way of thinking though. It's a fun game for the ego, but probably not very scientific. One bad game on the wrong evening and the better team can be out. And every team seems to have the occasional evening where they just can't seem to get turned "ON".... by this...

Don't break your heart over it. The teams you've mentioned may or may not advance beyond this level. At least one has a key player gone! Somewhere along the line everyone is beaten out and is done, and in a tournament situation, you don't get that return game to hopefully make up for an...

Never read a single nasty comment from ISU fans about the Patrick McCaffrey situation! Not a single hint of anything mean or less than 100% encouraging, sympathetic, and prayerful. I think there is the occasional Hawk fan who is so jealous and bitter that they invent reasons that will allow...

I stand corrected and appreciate it. Thanks. (Now I wonder who I'm thinking of.....)

No, Kane was not kicked off of any team. He graduated from Marshall with a degree in business management and is now working on a master's degree in higher education at Iowa State.

I think Baylor from the B12 is all. Once again, I don't think ISU will advance without Georges Niang even though they seemed to cover for his loss well enough to advance to the Sweet Sixteen, and I thought they were done for without him. I just don't see them being able to get past his loss...
