    We'll make it to a bowl game this year!

    If you are going to post a comment you could at least attempt to spell the words correctly. You are giving the educational system in Iowa two black eyes, a split lip and several badly broken bone with your display of ignorance.

    Where/when did you work while at ISU?

    Worked at Midwest Transportation driving school bus for Ames School from 79-83. Made extra money bringing new buses up from Conway Ar and made about $125 for the weekend(good money for the times). Also drove extra buses for Cyride during the winter(buses were accidents wainting to happen).

    While you sit in Iowa and complain about high ticket prices you can't even touch tickets to Auburn for less than about $50-$60 and those are in the nosebleed sections in the corners of the upper decks or in the lowest rows of the endzones. Enjoy the prices while you still can. When the team...

    All-Time Iowa State Team...

    My pick for PK is Tom Goedgen. I believe he missed one PAT his entire career at ISU. Coach has to be Earl Bruce.

    Chizik and his arrogance

    How would you like to be in my positon. I graduated from both ISU and Auburn. I'm glad that Chizik left ISU owing to his lack of character but he surfaced at Auburn. Now what do I do? I married into a diehard Crimson Tide family. I want Chizik to fail bigtime but do I root for Bama? Can't see it...
