    It can't happen if you don't aim big every once in awhile.

    Apparently, Jamie Pollard agrees with me since the athletic directors with guidance from the networks decide the schedule.
    The campaign starts now. November 6, 2012.

    Or we got stuck with it by the big 12.

    Maybe Tulsa would like to get out of it for their own sake. If they had played a patsy instead of us, they might be 10-1 right now!

    Come on, you don't get "stuck" with a primetime Thursday Night game against Texas. That's good exposure for the program.

    Sadly, they played a patsy in Arkansas and couldn't pull off the win.

    I agree, that would be a HUGE game on ESPN and national attention.

    kbohls@kbohlsTexas Deputy AD Butch Worley says Iowa State definitely wants to play Texas on a Thursday; issue to go before UT Athletics Council.

    Bohls has an opinion that this is something ISU asked as a return for being on LHN.

    Are you mocking me? Those stupid pigs were ranked, but lost to a directional school and knocked me out of my own FBS Football Survivor Game in Week 2!
