    Lets Start A New Hickory Park Debate

    The prices are good, but the food is average at best.

    West Virginia Player Attacks Fan

    There were multiple examples of stuff like this. The personal foul on us towards the end of the game was our O-Lineman pulling one of their guys off Montgomery as that guy kept pushing on Montgomery well after the whistle. On one of Butler's catches across the middle going South, after the...

    MONDAY MUSINGS: Why I'm not freaking out quite yet

    7-5 in the regular season last year included 2 incredible upsets. I think most honest fans would admit beating OU and TCU were unexpected, ahead of schedule upsets. Last year was a 5-6 win team without those upsets, so to say 7 victories this year is not a step forward is, I think, only looking...

    *** Official IOWA STATE VS TCU Game(Day) Thread ***

    Might as well try Re-al at this point. It doesn't look like Zeb is up to it, so try getting them with something they weren't prepared for.

    Facility Upgrades

    To me it looks like you might still be able to get from the North parking lots to the West Entrance. Between the ramps and the performance building there appears to be space. Not sure if they would have that open, but as a person who often goes from North parking to West entrance for coaches...

    *New Uniform Thread*

    Am I the only one who doesn't love the candy cane stripe on the basketball uniforms? I really don't want those to migrate to football somehow.

    AutoCAD help

    I second google sketchup. I've done floor plans and 3d modeling on their free software. Plus they have pretty good help videos.

    Campustown Redevelopment

    Somewhat dumpy? Besides the new buildings that have gone up in the past 6 years, almost all of the establishments are quite dumpy. It's sad there isn't really a place where you'd feel comfortable taking your visiting parents for a drink after a game or something.

    Civilization VI

    This is my main concern. My favorite Civ VI victory is Culture because there are so many angles (building wonders, establishing National Parks, great works, archaeology, themed museums, coastal resorts), but Cultural victories almost require a wide game plan because the more cities the more...

    Civilization VI

    For sure. I feel like that can definitely happen on the lower difficulties, but when I play on Emperor or higher, it usually takes much longer and often to the end to feel like I'm going to win. I agree though, the golden ages definitely seem to make things more dynamic. Even from a CPU...

    Civilization VI

    Thoughts on Rise & Fall? Looks like it's going to change the dynamic fairly drastically. I love Civ 6 and have logged far too many hours on it, so I'm hoping this is an improvement and not change for expansions sack.

    Hilton Magic is Real

    I was actually pretty impressed with the fan attendance (and activity) after what we saw last Saturday. The balcony behind the students on the ISU side is always lacking unless the student's show up. Other than that section there was a dotting of empty seats, but for the most part it filled up.

    Worst Golf Holes in Iowa

    Agree with this. Adding to the badness of the hole, the landing area for the tee shot layup is slopped fairly severely from right to left meaning for a righty your second shot has the ball above your feet which is one of my least favorite stances in golf.

    Matt Campbell gets PAID.

    Didn't read the whole thread, but this news finally put a smile back on my face since we got screwed on Saturday. It's so fun being excited about Cyclone football and feeling like there is actual substance, instead of empty Cyclone hope, to that excitement.

    $75 million football/athletics facility

    I've heard that Campbell really wants a place where players want to be there ALL DAY. Unless they are going to class, they can wake up, go to the "performance center" (or whatever it is called) and be there all day. That way it's easy for the players to get everything they need (diet and school...

    Cyclones.tv: When will it be brought into the 21st century?

    This times x1000. WatchESPN is terrible with Mediacom. Again, with Comcast up in Minneapolis, I had no issue. With Mediacom it is unwatchable.

    Cyclones.tv: When will it be brought into the 21st century?

    I haven't used Cyclones.tv since I moved back into the Mediacom bubble, but when I used it with Comcast up in Minneapolis it always worked great for me. (>1yr ago)

    NBA: Celtics vs. LA Big Ballers tonight on ESPN

    Lonzo is "fine"... for now. If his shot was falling at an avg. percentage everyone would be talking about all the things he brings to the game. His defensive struggles are largely overstated. He looks like a 19 year old kid who is used to being the best on the court realizing he isn't even close...
