I really like our chances now, Josh Young is injured.

I liked our chances before.

They don't know if Young will play or not.

Sounds like they got beat up inside, but were hitting from the outside.

Last year I can't understand. 2 years ago they were a really good team. Drake has probably been experiencing their best years ever in bball the last few years. I hate celebrating a players injury.

I'd rather be playing Drake at full strength. Here's hoping to a speedy recovery.

No, they haven't...not even close. I guess most CF posters are too young to remember, but Drake went to a Final Four and a couple of Elite Eights back in the late 60's/early 70's.

I did not know that. Kinda wild to think of that now as they are considered a mid-major and if they got to a final 4 in these days it would be a HUGE upset of sorts...

Me too. I want to play Drake at their best. We should win either way, and it would be good to get the best road test we can early on.

Even if they play their cheerleaders.....this game is a watershed for our team. Not only have we not beaten Drake the last three seasons, we have only won, I think one game against the MVC as a whole since GMAC to over. So here is to us not only winning......but putting a hurt on them.

Im stoked for this game. Anyone heard how tickets sales are going? I really dont want to buy tickets from Drake online, because their website is terrible.

Hopefully we can have a huge ISU walkup crowd.

As did I. Double digit win regardless of whether or not Young plays.

**chriscyzer** · 11-15-2009, 10:39 AM

I like our chance anytime. I will never look to Drake as a tough game.

Dolph Pulliam was one of my favorites.
