I’ve got the Cyclones by a pretty comfortable margin tomorrow. Get all the details here:

Iowa State is the first Power Four offer for Saline (Michigan) 2026 QB Tommy Carr. Watching his junior highlights is pretty similar to watching Connor Moberly's junior highlights (moderately tall, very mobile, with an accurate arm). His older brother (CJ) is a QB at Notre Dame and he is also the grandson of former Michigan coach Lloyd Carr.

Thank God for Jamie Pollard!

In no particular order.....

* Will Harris debate, or will she back out for some reason?

* Will Trump be sentenced to jail time?

* Will a major controversy emerge involving voting procedures?

* Will the mainstream media become more objective, or will they go all-in for Harris in the final days?

* Will there be another assassination attempt on one or the other candidate?

* Will there be a major international incident?

* Will Harris engage in several news conferences and/or interviews?

* Will Trump and/or his supporters attack Harris personally vis-a-vis her time with Willie Brown?

The man who tried to kill Trump today Tweeted democracy was on the ballot and we can’t afford to fail. Then he tried to kill Trump. He was directly motivated by the claims of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris to kill Trump.

I tuned into the Minnesota Lynx playoff game last night just in time to see ISU's Bridget Carleton nail her first 3-pointer of the game. She went 3 of 4 from three, and 3 of 4 from the line for 12 points. Another very solid game for her.

Took a minute to peruse the Iowa Rivals board last night, and they are resigned to the fact that their loss to us most likely will eliminate them from the CFP. They do admit that the chances of Iowa winning at tOSU are slim to none, and there is no other game that would give them a quality win.

The best part of the thread was when someone thought Iowa State had a good chance to win the Big 12, thereby qualifying for the CFP before Iowa. The board was aghast at the thought.

That would indeed be glorious!

Apparently Soros family bought another 160 radio stations. Normally these things take time as the FCC has to sign off on them before theey are allowed to make sure it's not a monopoly situation. Well, it got fast tracked. Walz just finished a visit with Alex Soros.

Nothing to see here???????

I’m so happy to have role models who play hard, succeed at the highest level and are respectful of opponents and officials.

With Iowa Pork Producers. Can you spot the miss spelled word?

According to wiki Javon Daniel’s son is Jayden Daniel’s of the Washington Commanders. Javon played corner at Iowa State

Algona had a rather blah 35-0 victory over Boyden-Hull/Rock Valley.

Algona scored the first 3 possessions in the first quarter, all on Alex Manske passes.

The next 2 drives ended in a fumble and a penalty, or vice versa, I don't remember which. The Algona ran an interception back near the end of the half and repeated that the 3rd play of the second half. The clock ran and Algona only had 3 possessions, 2 which ended in pass completions followed by fumbles. The last possession ran out the clock. Over by 8:55.

Manske was 10-15, 233 yards, 3 tds, 0 interceptions. Had an additional 25 on the ground in a quiet night.

Limbaugh, back from the flu, had 7 tackles, 1 for a sack, 3 receptions at TE, and was selected Homecoming King.

I wait until Wednesday night to get the official stats in the paper. For the year, Alex has 10 Touchdowns and no interceptions.

Hit up the Spirit Walk on Saturday to get some pics. Especially was watching for Kyle. All I know is that he looks like he's 13. Only one I saw that looked like that was this kid. Is this him ? If it isn't, could someone please ID him. And yes, went through the entire roster on Cyclones.com and still not sure.

Thanks !

Iowa State's head coach will meet with the media around 12:15 for his weekly press conference that looks ahead to Saturday's road game at Houston. I'll have highlights in the thread below.

Thank you to everyone who participated last week. The final score was Iowa State 52, Arkansas State 7 (Iowa State by 45 and 59 total points). The Cyclones passed for 253 yards.

Here are the winners:
@CloneForever had ISU by 31 with 48 total points and 286 yards passing for ISU - gets three months added onto the term of their subscription.
@CyRail had ISU by 30 with 50 total points and 257 passing yards for ISU - gets two months added onto the term of their subscription.
@saccyty had ISU by 30 with 44 total points and 299 yards passing for ISU - gets one month added onto the term of their subscription.

The o line on this team has Ryan Clanton written all over it. He talks about being violent and this o line is. If they can stay healthy, that line could get playoff level good. It has to keep getting better every week. And while I’m talking offense, I really like Mouser at o coordinator too.

Big 12 Media Relations

CBS Sports and the Big 12 Conference have expanded their partnership by significantly increasing the number of Big 12 men’s college basketball games across the Network’s platforms. The multi-year deal, which runs through the 2026-27 season, is through a sublicense agreement with ESPN.

As part of its extensive regular-season schedule, CBS Sports already broadcasts a minimum of six Big 12 men’s college basketball games annually on CBS, with those games streaming live on Paramount+. This new agreement adds 20 games per year to air on CBS Sports Network to bring the total number of Big 12 men’s basketball games to at least 26 per season across CBS Sports platforms.

“CBS Sports continues to be the home for big-time college basketball and we are excited to expand our long-standing relationship with the Big 12,” said Dan Weinberg, Executive Vice President, Programming, CBS Sports. “The Big 12 is one of the nation’s signature basketball conferences with marquee schools, student-athletes and coaches along with a rich history in the sport. This is a tremendous opportunity to add 20 high-quality games from a premier conference to our schedule and we are thrilled to increase the number of Big 12 basketball games across our CBS Sports platforms.”

“Growing our presence on CBS Sports will deliver Big 12 basketball to even more fans across the country,” said Big 12 Commissioner Brett Yormark. “The additional nationally televised games will continue to grow our brand as the best conference in college basketball and showcase the elite student-athletes and programs from our 16 institutions.”

CBS Sports will begin its 44th consecutive season presenting college basketball this fall with approximately 300 regular-season games across CBS and Paramount+, as well as CBS Sports Network, including 15 automatic bids to the NCAA Men’s and Women’s Tournaments. CBS Sports has been the broadcast home of the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Tournament since 1982, including a partnership with TNT Sports since 2012.
