They are such a sad sack program and it is nice to see the sun shin on a........every now and then. PR seems to be a class guy.

I agree guys. Paul Rhodes is a good guy and he's a local boy. Hard not to like him. I'm as big of a Hawkeye fan as they come... but I'm also loyal to the state. As long ISU isn't playin the Hawks I'll root for them. Some of their fans are downright crazy but what team doesn't have fans like that? Even though the Big12 North is terrible, the Cyclones winning helps our strength of schedule which could be key come bowl selection time. That being said, Nebraska did more to lose that game than ISU did to win it. Gotta give a team credit for creating turnovers, but whenever any Division 1 football team has 8 turnovers they lose the game. Awful performance by Nebraska, and a stingy win for ISU. Congrats.

The Nebraska message boards ought to be some high comedy right about now.

Very, very happy for CPR and some of my friends that have been lifelong and suffering ISU fans...just spoke to one that told me its the happiest day of his life...and I believe him.

I can imagine this board (or the old one) were pretty bad after some of the bad home losses in recent years.
This Notre Dame/BC game is pretty entertaining so far.

You have to wonder if Gene Chizik will take note of this and/or Auburn fans.
Great win ISU!!!!! And I must say, Iowa's victory over ISU looks more impressive now.

Congrats to the Clones...that's a BIG win AND it helps Iowa's standing in the BCS...I guess Nebraska football really IS back...to square one...
Maybe they can take off their "Restore the Order" t-shirts.

Well, they wanted to "get back to the days of old"...I just didn't know they meant the "Callahan Era"...

Its impossible to not like Paul Rhoades - guy is a class act. Good for the clones. As an added bonus Nebraska is miserable and it helps our SOS 
Seriously, that's the biggest win in terms of advancing the program...since the bowl win over Pitt back in 2000. Just HUGELY important to Rhoads and ISU in terms of building a little momentum. Now the focus shifts to picking up one more win, at least, to get bowl eligible. Making a bowl after having lost 10 straight under Chiz last year...would be one helluva accomplishment.
