College Gameday

I can't watch this anymore. They made a point of saying we are a 1 bid league despite having 2 undefeated teams. This is the second week they have brought this up as they had a segment last week saying the same thing. We are only halfway through the season and we already know how many bids each league will get? What a joke, the bias is unreal. Just give the BIG/SEC their 8 automatic bids, the biased media will keep pounding the point home until the committee does what they want.

FOOTBALL ***Iowa State vs. UCF game prediction thread (please read contest rules!)***

It's UCF week, so let's get rolling with those predictions for the game against the Knights.

1) Winner & margin of victory. (ex: Iowa State by six)
2) Total points scored. (ex: 52 points)
3) TIEBREAKER: How many passing yards will Iowa State finish with?

Number one will be the first determiner and then I'll take whoever gets closest to the total points. If needed, I'll go to the passing yards prediction to break a tie.

Contest winners will be rewarded as follows: first place (three free months added to your subscription); second place (two free months); third place (one free month).

Iowa State is currently a 13.5-point favorite and the over/under is 53.5 points.

Cowpokes at BYU

Anyone watching this?

OSU State benched Bowman at QB (finally). He's been awful.

BYU takes first drive straight down the field, 7-0. I'm thinking OSU has quit already, are they really going to start 0-4 in the B12 after being a Top 20 team??

But they showed heart....somehow up 21-14 at half. Ollie Gordon with 3 TDs. OSU backup starter got hurt, so Bowman is now in the game.

Would be great if OSU could hold on for the upset. If we wanna dream big, a BYU loss would certainly be helpful.

The Al Smith Dinner

I didn't intend to watch this last night, but ended up seeing most of it.

Just below and to the right of the podium was an African-American woman, and a Caucasian man wearing a green bow tie. Neither one hardly cracked a smile the entire evening or stood up for Trump's introduction. Anyone know who these two attendees might have been?

I had a weird dream

It was an Iowa State dream, so bear with me.

I don't think I've ever dreamt about football, but I did last night and it was a little weird. Iowa State was playing someone and a player who we had high hopes for because we'd been hearing what an athletic freak he was, was finally healthy and coming back from an injury. This was a big guy. Think Brent Curvey.

Anyway, this guy came onto the field and lined up as the center, with the QB under center. They lined up 10 yards back from the line of scrimmage, but everyone else was lined up in their normal places on the line of scrimmage, saving a gap for the center. The center hiked the ball, then ran straight up the field through the gap left for him in the line and continued running all the way to the end zone. The other team was so shocked they just stood there and nobody followed. The QB then reared back and let the ball fly as far as he could throw it. The center dove to catch it and it was called a TD.

I was in an office type setting when all this occurred and we got to discussing it and decided they line up this way so the center could be an eligible receiver. We started calling the play the center eligible play. I don't know if that would make the center an eligible receiver or not, but it's a dream and doesn't have to make sense.

Big opportunity tomorrow

ISU has a chance to significantly move up in the AP Poll after tomorrow...

First of all Iowa State needs to win! Then we need the following to happen:

#1 Texas (6-0) needs to beat #5 Georgia (5-1) at home - Texas is a 4 1/2 point favorite
Unranked Louisville (4-2) needs to beat #6 Miami (6-0) at home - Miami is a 5 point favorite
#11 Tennessee (5-1) needs to beat #7 Alabama (5-1) at home - Alabama is a 3 point favorite
Unranked Arkansas (4-2) needs to beat #8 LSU (5-1) at home - LSU is a 2 1/2 point favorite

If all this happens ISU looks to become the #5 or #6 ranked team in the polls. I expect we would be ranked #6 after one loss Tennessee jumps us in the polls. I really like dogs Louisville, Tennessee, and Arkansas to win outright tomorrow. The teams we need to win are all playing at home.

This brings me to a question for Cygarin:

What are the odds of all this happening?
