Iowa State shouldn't feel bad about getting schooled by BYU. Provo is a very difficult place to play and the Cougars are top 10 in net rating. I expect BYU to be a top seed in the tournament this year and its possible we could even win the Big 12.

The Cyclones are a good team and will rebound.
Lol, wow, you guys lost at home to Cincinnati already and were always behind St. Mary's, San Francisco and Gonzaga, but yeah, probably easily win the Big 12 this year.

I used to think there was no chance but after watching Big 12 games so far, I'm pretty confident. Kansas, Houston, and Texas Tech are all overrated. Iowa State's a great team but BYU's style of play is a bad match for the Cyclones and they can't stop Cougars offense and all of our three pointers.

If BYU beats the Raiders tomorrow, the chances go way up we will be in the title game.
Calm down. We’ve won 1 game away from Hilton this year.

If you want to see some negative stuff, look at social media posts about BYU since Tuesday. We need to knock that crap off.
Do we need to knock off all negative crap or just the stuff against BYU?

Since this site is social media, I'm trying to figure out why someone would lead off with "Iowa State shouldn't feel bad about getting schooled by BYU"

That was an interesting ice breaker.

I'm talking about all the bigotry about BYU and that crap going around. That needs to stop immediately.

I saw a lot of BYU fans calling our student athletes "thugs" which is a thinly veiled racist term. Are you telling them to knock it off too?
I know some people see that as racist and there are probably better words to use but I haven't seen it and probably few and far between.

Have you ever interacted with a Yewt? Good luck finding a Yewt fan who is even sober. You will see how bad they are soon enough. Worst fan base in America.
Even sober? They must be our long lost cousins. :D

I have no idea what Kum & Go is and don't know know if I want to. It sounds untoward like porn or the like.
Gas station chain just bought out by the familiar to you Mavericks( not sure if the S belongs or not)

Maybe take you and your jump buddy need to wander back over to the Cougarboard and lecture them on bigotry.

There is a reason why I asked if he frequented Cougarboard. There is an air of persecution mixed with clueless insensitivity that permeates that place and why I don't post there ever any more.

I'm not saying that sports boards in general are bastions of enlightened thought and sensitivity, but Cougarboard is "special".

Its not the best language to use and I don't do much on Cougarboard and don't condone it. There are a lot of Utah fans trolling to make BYU look bad especially on twitter.
Oh sure sure. I'm sure there are tons of Utah fans posing as BYU fans on Cougarboard to make them look racist. Give me a break.

Most of the Cougar fans I've interacted with have been great. But it's also the same fanbase that were lobbing racial slurs at Melvin Ejim in 2013 causing him to flip them off.
