*** Official #24 IOWA STATE vs #20 BYU Game(Day) Thread ***

[VeloClone]

Not in conference games. It's now when they are labeled most annoying-not when we were dominating them

Apparently you weren't around here when ISU last visited Provo. They weren't in the conference then and I think a lot of people put them near the top of their most hated list that season after that game.

I see we have another esteemed graduate of the Rodney Terry School of Self Awareness

 

[VeloClone]

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

Maybe the interwebs aren't for you...

 

[NENick]

Cyclones and Cougers
Great people on both sides.
The others frequent discussion boards!

 

[NENick]

Seriously, fans can be delusional. I predicted 6-1 start to conference season.
BYU is good. BYU Dad will feel like I do in a couple weeks. They won't win the conference, but they sure look like a tourney team.

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".

Right. You need to go to our "Cave" for that! [our

Politics - Religion - Global Warming​

section] LOL

 

[t-noah]

I went to Cougarboard myself to see if those posts are really there. This is on the front page. So maybe none of us are innocent bystanders in the whole thing. Let's both try do better.

Not impressed by Iowa State fans on social media.

Why don't we all just be friends?

LOL

 

[t-noah]

Game threads not quite dying aren't quite out of the norm, but this one has all sorts of potential.

Still going strong a day before our next game (Sat.). It has real potential.

And please, someone tell me BYU won't be our preferred rivalry?

 

[Cyclonepride]

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.

Just checking in on that championship run of yours

I have my own model & I do have Cougars going 12-6 actually. Things are really starting to click.

What does your model predict after blowing that huge lead tonight?

'Starting to click' is often short-lived in the Big 12.

FYI.

 

[Cupped]

My model doubts that BYU will ever get above .500 in conference play this year. Not knocking your team, it's just the way the Big 12 is.

 

[rosshm16]

Maybe the model was giving too much weight to prior victories in the WCC.

My model has BYU eating a bag of dicks.

 

[GMackey32]

Cool. BYU finishes no better than 10-8.

Might have to change this to 9-9

 

[NoCreativity]

They weren't even winning that much in that conference. They were always behind Gonzaga, St. Mary's, and San Francisco most years.

Given your profile picture and the garbage you are talking, you have to be a Yewt fan.

What bigotry are you referring to exactly?

 

[BYU Dad]

BYU's best player was out today and we still almost won on the road.

Iowa State’s best player was out today and did win on the road.
