Group is thinking of meeting up somewhere warmer for pregame. Any favorites. We have done tip top. Not what else there is in Ames for pregame.

What's missing in our run scheme. That is not a good run D we just played. I understand that the staff doesn't want to expose Brock in games like this, but we have to show something other than the flanker screen look in order for that zone blocking to work. Love our staff but feel like we simplified things for KU to defend.

Has anyone heard how serious Deshaunte Jones' injury is?

On the last drive for Iowa State we had the ball first and goal at the five. Got called for illegal procedure (ref stepped away from the center with three seconds on the play clock). But we had first down at the ten


Then KU was called for defensive holding and the ref said the penety was half the distance and that itt was second down. Isn't defensive holding an automatic first down?

Maybe I just don't know the rules.

That kid is a fantastic player. He could play for any team in the country.

To the 99th percentile should be Purdy - but why does my Conspiracy Theory antena go up that the voters will give it to F’n Jalen Hurt or even Charlie Brewer. Both OU and Baylor are more the national media darlings.

Brock has passed for 3575 yds this year. It is not totally inconceivable that he could lay a big number on Kansas State and crack the 4000 yd barrier. That would be fun.. Hope he passes the 4000 yd barrier by the 6th game next year.

I would have to think we would be a top target for wide receivers with the success Pettway has had. And who wouldn't want to have Purdy throwing to them? The guy spreads the football around so well.

Yep, they don't happen often, but when you love the game of football and a special player like Brock Purdy comes along and works his magic week in and out, it's hard not to develop one. Yesterday, the team struggled some and it needed a leader on the field who could lead in a way that only a handful of quarterbacks can.

I was out of town yesterday and was trying to to keep up with the game in the second half as I could. I knew BP was delivering another impressive second half performance, but I wasn't aware of his 2nd half numbers; 17 of 21 for 197 yards and two touchdowns including completing 18 of his last 19 passes and 11 in a row. And he ran in another TD. And then there's the whole leadership thing that he brings to the team.

This kid is so special in so many ways that I'm not sure any of us fully understands what he really means to the program and his team. I only hope he stays healthy and we can watch him another 2 years.

1963.

This date always rings a little more intently for me when it falls on Friday. In 1963 ISU was on the quarter system and Friday the 22nd was the last day of my first final exams.

I had a Math 110 final at 1:00 p.m. We had a small final cram session in Helser and left about 12:45 to walk to Beardshear. Some one yelled out a window that the President had been shot. We didn't really believe it and went forth.

By the time the test was over at 2:30, we knew something was amiss. But no one told us anything. When we left Beardshear the campus was literally stopped. People were in offices listening to radios, many in tears.

Outside, small groups were gathered around cars listening to the radio. That is how I found out what had happened. They cancelled the remaining tests. A day forever etched in my memory.

We’ve all been to enough games to know better but I’ve seen comments about getting the reserves time today, etc.

No matter what, we should never take any opponents for granted and that goes for the coaches as well.

If you remember the KU game last year it was much closer than the score indicated. Thought they actually out played us for much of that game and they are much improved.

says Campbell is intrigued. Don't know when or why or if Campbell even said that like they claim but they say "sources". we know he doesn't have an agent so I wonder who close to Campbell would say that.

So far this season Brock Purdy has:
Set the Single Season TD Passes record
Set the Single Season Passing Yards record
Set the Single Season Total Offense record
Set the Single Season Total TDs record
Set the Single Game Total Offense record
Tied the Single Game Passing TDs record
Tied the Single Game Total TDs record

Brock needs 7 more TDs to Tie the Career Total TDs record and 8 more Passing TDs to Tie the Career Passing TDs record.

*if the records found here are correct

But I do find it interesting...

EIU home game vs Illinois - 58,331, 84% of capacity.

ISU home game vs Kansas - 58,120, 94.5% of capacity.

Tell me things are not changing in this state.

so they get another location off of the list. I have tickets to this game, kind of upset about it because it may be the same kick time as our game. hopefully I can watch ours from my phone.

Please post here during today's game between the Cyclones and Jayhawks. Thank you!

OU just intercepted a pass from TCU on their own 30. And the guy who was down got up and ran into the TCU endzone with a bunch of his teammates. And then they make a group pose in the endzone. No flag for delay of game or unsportsmanlike. Am I jwrong for thinking there should have been some type of penalty?

Atlantic running back Tyler Moen committed to the cyclones as a preferred walk-on . Had a single game rushing yards of 523. Rushed for 1909 yards last year

#6 Oregon at Arizona State
#7 Utah at Arizona

Oklahoma and the Big 12 should be rooting for chaos in the desert tonight. Currently 10-7 Arizona State at the half.

Penn State losing today bumps OU up a spot. If Oregon and Utah both lose before the Pac 12 title game OU will jump them as well. Georgia losing to LSU in the SEC title game would drop them below OU. Would basically be a non-SEC title game/no Tua Alabama team vs OU for the 4th playoff spot.

Just got tickets to the K-State game in Manhattan for my birthday. Wife is starting to like the idea of traveling to an away game each year (hit KU last year).

Anyone been before? Things I need to know?

Thanks in advance.

Bill Self hasn't signed up for it yet.

Which Bowl are you most hoping the Cyclones are invited to?

Ben said that if we get on them early, they will fold based on what Miles said.

Also, KU has not won a road game in the Big 12 since they beat us in 2008...11 years! Oof!
