Going into the texas tech game I made sure I did not step on one cement crack cut line from the parking lot to the stadium to my seat. (Just in case.) My spidey sense that there was something not right in the air for that game, but I attributed it to my normal paranoid self from major heart breaks from the past when we are on the cusp of Iowa State history. We went on to shoot ourselves in the foot in that game..... by all rights.....we should have won. It brought back all the horrors' of the ghost of Iowa State past.

Going into the kansas state game....this Time......... I made sure I walked on every freaking cement sidewalk cut line I could find walking into the game. It worked...but I think all the magic Saturday was on the dedication, coaching, and excellent play/teamwork by the players down on the field:)

It did cross my mind though that my superstitious antics might have placed a hex on the late field goal miss that would have sealed the victory over the kitties. I tried my damn(est) to keep those thoughts of pole cats marching down the field for a touchdown and getting a two point conversion for OT. Exorcising demon thoughts of ISU past is such a tough job :rolleyes:
