ZOMG, you guys are right!!!! ;)

So, you think that ISU is going to win in basketball/football every year from here on out? Based on what? Recent history? Iowa and ISU have gone 3-3 in football since 2001, and have split every meeting in basketball since 2001.

I do apologize for going 3-3 in our last games against Iowa. We were doing so much better than that.

Iowa doesn't win a FB game until 2012. And only wins one BB game through 2013.

you heard/read it here first folks.

1) I said at least two out of three, so not necessarily football/basketball every year, but a combo of football/basketball/wrestling.

2) And I base that on the fact that your football team has more arrests than wins, the basketball team is essentially starting over from what wasn't a good team to begin with, and obviously both wrestling programs are superb and anything can happen.

Has it helped? Have you watched a Cross Country or Swimming meet in the last 4 years? I probably couldn't tell you where the Cross Country team runs. But that's just me.

No, but I might check the score at least

. If I was still a student it might help more also, but I live in Chicago.

Consider it an open question for any Cyclone fan.
