  1. Iowa. Almost to the top of the map, close to to the right hand side.
  2. Campbell's notoriously bad to start the year, but he's 4-2 against Kleiman, and none of the wins have been fluky. One of these trends will give. My biggest concern is that Jayce Brown (KSU WR) got wide open a couple of times last year against our best returning cover guy (Jeremiah Cooper). Granted, he was having to spend the pre-snap lining up 4th string LBers in the right spot, but I'd assume they'll take some shots against Cooper early to try and get some momentum out the gate. I think our offense is going to be fine. Rocco Becht is a dog, our line is serviceable, we have 2 pretty damn solid RBs, and a couple proven good TEs. WR is a question mark, but the guys coming in are talented on paper, and Campbell always has at least one really good wideout on the roster. Defense was riddled with injury last year. The LB corps in particular. They fell off quite a bit, but it's hard to prognosticate this year because so many guys who never expected to play were playing. Now they have a ton of returning experience, but how good are they?
  3. Fuck K-State. Excited for this one. Getting up early to smoke some egg casseroles on the pellet grill. Gonna do one with Hatch chiles, chorizo, and chives. Bloody Mary and Mimosa bar in the back yard. Unseasonably cool weather (high of 73) will make it feel like Fall after an absurdly muggy summer. I kinda can't believe it's here, but it's here.
  4. I've always said you could shape cowpies into the outline of the State of Texas and sell them at Buccees.
  5. Those are fantastic.
  6. It just cracks me up that only being 600 miles away from the 2nd closest school is a good argument for logical conference geography. I think Cincy is a lot like Pitt culturally. They have a decent chunk of their own fans in their city despite their state being dominated by the land grant school. Cool stadium. Made the 4 team playoff. Good hoops culture too. It doesn’t seem like a commuter school to me.
  7. I always liked the idea of bringing in Cincy and BYU. Houston and UCF will always feel weird to me.
  8. Our 80’s tornado is so clean. I don’t understand why we can’t see more of it.
  9. I think these are the best uniforms we’ve had since the 70’s. I chuckle at how often I see people pine for the tornado bird. When that was our logo, it was universally mocked and we regularly got put on “worst uniforms” lists.
  10. Co-signed. I love it when guys wear non-positional numbers. Every time I watch BYU I’m going to think that’s a fullback running Wildcat or something.
  11. I think both ISU and KSU sold out their allotments, but a solid 1/3rd of the crowd tends to be locals.
  12. It’s not being played in 2027. Both fanbases are livid. Both ADs couldn’t care less.
  13. If you own a bar or restaurant in Manhattan, Kansas it does
  14. KSU gave up the home game. We won’t go back to Manhattan until ‘28 if current scheduling holds.
  15. And for the record, I had assumed Stache was referencing artificial intelligence, and CTJ was taking a shot at me.
  16. We’ll always have this https://youtu.be/uq-gYOrU8bA?si=vOvBVQguVefdmz4A
  17. You have no idea how specifically annoying artificial intelligence has become for guys named “Al”
  18. And our starting RB and LT
  19. Those mid 90’s Cowboy unis suck. People like them because they bring back memories of the dominance.
  20. I absolutely love these. Script Cyclones was big when I was born, and all over my little kid ISU gear.
  21. Kinda forgot this thread. We went up to Lake Superior last month and I got 4 days of riding between Duluth, Bayfield WI, and Hayward WI. 3 days on the incredible Chequamegon Area Mountain Bike Trails. Wet summer and a toddler have limited my riding. Heading up to northern MN over Labor Day for one last hurrah before harvest.
  22. She thinks it’s “Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes” and does that choreography to it
  23. This Midwest Princess is ready for her Chappel Roan themed birthday
  24. Derechos are maybe the most terrifying wind storm. The one in central Iowa in 2020 just laid a path of waste that would make a tornado blush, in terms of total damage dollars. Yesterday could have definitely been worse.
