    Cyclone Power?

    Did we start the whole Cyclone Power thing? I have not heard it before ISU started it, but I have noticed during various basketball games that teams are starting to do it. (i.e. Nebraska chanted "Husker Power" during their home game against Kansas. I believe another school did it against us.

    UNI had a pathetic attempt of it against us. But I think we are the first school to start it. Did Jeff Johnson start Cyclone Power?

    A lot of schools do it.

    I doubt we started it.

    I know Boomer Sooner was before us for example but I think we started the Cyclone "Power" part of it, if that makes sense.

    Nebraska fans probably heard our students do it in their building and caught on. UNI fans definitely stole it from us too.

    Texas Tech has been doing Raider Power for quite a while.

    Cyclone Power started with Jeff Johnson whenever they started to let him on the field, which was 2006 maybe?

    I guarantee we started "Cyclone Power" but highly doubt we started "-------- Power" and even if we did it isn't very original it just is apparently the only half way decent thing we can come up with.

    Nebraska fans have done "Husker Power" at football games for decades.
