Watching some game replays has reminded me of how horrible the field was this year. Any rumors or notes on in they have a fix in plan?

Seeing Houston favored by 7.5 tomorrow on one betting site. That seems disrespectful on the surface to us given the #5 vs #8 rating - even on the road. I was thinking 3-4 pts. Buuuut….seems like we’ve been playing B- basketball even with Milan back. This observation acknowledges we are 3-0 with MM but against mediocre teams.

7.5 points? 🤷‍♂️. Prove them wrong Iowa State. It’s a massive game at many levels.

Progressives used COVID to defeat Trump during his first term. Now it appears that they are seriously considering WWIII just to defeat Trump. Literally they are proposing to cause WWIII. The nut job prime minister of England is planning to send English troops to Ukraine to fight against Russia. This means NATO attacking Russia, which automatically means WWIII, and the War will go nuclear. He is literally considering the complete destruction of Earth just because he hates Trump. The crying pussies of Europe would rather end the planet than see Trump win and destroy them.

An opportunity to get a great seat for season tickets next year as I am offering the following season ticket for sale:


1-Jack Trice Club

I am offering at face value with a minor additional amount to partially offset the cost of the donation required for the section and seating. With not as many family attending this next year, and this being a great seat I wanted to offer someone the opportunity.

I have obtained thes seats by donating for over 20 years and simply wanted to try and offset the increased costs in a mutually beneficial way. These would be at a major discount from what it would cost to just purchase with the full donation. All would need to be finalized before to February 28.

PM or email me (dave@larsonentllc.com) if interested and we can discuss details.

If our conference athletic directors and commissioner agree with what the SEC and BIG are proposing for future football playoffs they should be relieved of there duties

I’ve been down and out since Tuesday, so going on five days tomorrow. It has to be a bout with Influenza or even Covid. Had a 102° temperature this afternoon. Congestion, cough, sinus headache, upset stomach, you name it.

Curious what’s been circulating around in these parts.

Totally sucks but I’m going to have to cover tomorrow’s game from home. Not going to pass it on to media colleagues or the team.

I'll start.

"Bringing Home the Roses". I don't know who did it, but my Dad bought the 45. Played it constantly. It cemented my love for ISU.

Very complimentary and insightful.

Kelsey Joens has a firm grip on a starting spot at Iowa State and is playing a key role in ISU's February drive to another NCAA Tournament.

Meanwhile, in Oklahoma's beatdown of Vanderbilt by 20 points this week that saw the Sooners go 14 players deep, former Cyclone Aubrey Joens played 2 minutes and scored 2 points.

Maybe she is fighting injuries, I do not know. I liked her play and personality while at ISU and wish she had stayed.

At Iowa they cheered, 'Incite the Throng
Two-dollar beers—what could go wrong?'
But by last call’s cheer,
The chaos was clear:
A campus where mayhem belongs!

The former Cyclone helped lead Mizzou past Alabama tonight, scoring 25 points as the Tigers pounded The Crimson Tide 110-98.

I saw in a tweet that Anthony Becht had hired Seneca Wallace as his new QB coach.

ICE has identified suspects in the FBI that are tipping off immigrant gangs about ICE raids. Hopefully these people are identified, lose their jobs, lose their pensions, and spend a long time in Jail. So much corruption in the Federal workforce. The FBI also admits that they had over 5,000 employees working on J6 cases, out of 38,000 total employees. And democrats claim there is no lawfare going on. The liberal mindset is absolutely disgusting.

Mercifully, I don't have to see of hear iowa sports media, so I gather this moron, was dismissed by the higher level morons. Is that so (and I hope not.)

Moving up, that is.

Look what is going on this week...

#4 Alabama lost to Mizzou last night, giving up a staggering 110 points
# 6 Tennessee plays #7 Texas A&M....one of them will take a loss. Actually rooting for aTm because they already lost this week.

So, we are #8. There is a CHANCE that all of #4, #5, #6 and #7 could lose this week. #4 and #7 already have.

If we could beat #5 Houston on the road, we'd take a very nice jump upwards, probably to the #5 slot. Outside shot at #4.Would also help ALL the metrics in Ken Pom, NET, etc. Also the "they don't lose when MM plays" narrative would be heavily advanced.

#1 Auburn has 5 games left, 4 against ranked teams. #3 Florida has 5 games left, 3 against ranked teams. I expect Duke to ascend to the #1 ranking by default....they have 6 games left, ALL against unranked teams in the weak ACC.

Just saying, there is a path out there to play our way back onto the #1 seed line. But winning at Houston is a must for that to happen.

The Cyclones and Cougars tip off around 6:30 this evening at Hilton Coliseum. The game will be carried on ESPN+. @emiliezeis will have the live in-arena updates throughout the game.
