  1. Show me on the doll where the Big 12 touched you.
  2. This. I’m not going to react strongly to this game either way. If we win, it’s probably dumb luck. Same if we lose.
  3. There’s absolutely nothing to take away from that first half other than Rocco can throw a beautiful ball when he can hang on, and Avery Johnson can run when he isn’t slipping.
  4. Nah. Too many toddlers
  5. Watch party in my garage
  6. You might have this site’s record for the most posts saying the same fucking thing. Which is really pretty impressive
  7. That honestly wasn’t front of mind, but fuck ‘em
  8. It's definitely a good thing, but it doesn't change the overall trajectory of the sport.
  9. I'm talking about Iowa, but it's the same temp in Ireland. Last year on this weekend it was 90 and humid.
  10. Exactly. Part of the problem in all of this is that both ISU and KSU athletic departments refuse to embrace what literally everyone else acknowledges is a big deal. Their fans want the game protected, and anyone who remotely follows the Big 12 wants the game protected, but the people who have the power and position to advocate for this refuse to give a fuck and I hate it. On a totally different tangent, on top of Farmageddon being protected, I always thought it would be cool for ISU/KSU/OK State to have had a Commander In Chief style trophy for the old Big 8 ag schools.
  11. The fact that Hawaii football exists makes me happy. I wish Alaska had a D1 program too.
  12. Iowa. Almost to the top of the map, close to to the right hand side.
  13. 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?
  14. 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.
  15. I've always said you could shape cowpies into the outline of the State of Texas and sell them at Buccees.
  16. Those are fantastic.
  17. 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.
  18. I always liked the idea of bringing in Cincy and BYU. Houston and UCF will always feel weird to me.
  19. Our 80’s tornado is so clean. I don’t understand why we can’t see more of it.
  20. 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.
  21. 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.
