Which ISU program will be most exciting

I don't know how to make a poll. Could someone who does generate a poll for which program , FB, MBB, WBB, Wrestling, fans believe will generate the most fan excitement next year? Looks to me like one or more of them has the potential for a really exciting year.

That's a good question. For me, the answer comes down to interest. I'm most interested to see how our MBB team does with the new recruits and Lucca.

For me the one I am most interested to see what happens in is wrestling. I think womens bball might be the one that will go the furthest in the tourney. I am most excited about football but not for a year or two.

Re: Which ISU program will be most exciting--`

Wrestling has the best chance to be "most exciting" as far as success goes. But, for most Cyclone fans (not including me), wrestling is an afterthought. So, I voted for WBB because it looks like they have a good chance of making a decent post-season run and some Cyclone fans actually pay attention to them. For me, I'm most excited about FB just because that's the next sport up and I can't wait to tailgate

So, you are most excited about football but voted for WBB??? The question was which will be the most exciting not who will go the furthest success wise.

The question was vague so I replied vaguely.

Re: Which ISU program will be most exciting--`

MBB is always the most exciting. There are always a few nail biters through out the season. Football is fun, but I don't think it can generate the excitement a good basketball game can. Unless.....they run a statue of liberty play for a winning touchdown with no time left on the clock.

If we are talking about a full season. I think it depends on who makes a postseason tourney/bowl. I'll have to play it on the conservative side and say WBB also.

Re: Which ISU program will be most exciting--`

If the football team wins 6 or more games next year, it will win this contest without even a fight.

If the football team wins 5 or less games, it will depend on how those games were won and how the other games were lost.

Having said all that, I think the football team will easily win this contest. While WBB and Wrestling are going to have some great seasons, they just can't overtake the excitement generated by football or MBB. And I still don't think MBB is ready to generate excitement.

WBB has excitement? ;)

Football should be exciting. Basketball will probably be frustrating:(

I think G-Mac will have sucess with the BB program but the advancment in the last 2 years has been slow. WIth the FB program you could see them get better EVERY week (except the Texas game). If they progress like that next year we will be in for a treat.
