    Been watching non Big 12 basketball lately...

    And I think those pundits who think the Big 12 is overrated may be on to something. As fans of a Big 12 team, I fear we may all be high on our own supply. The other conferences, namely the SEC, are filled with teams at the top that will be dancing that have more size, athleticism, and playmakers...

    2023-24 Former Cyclones Now at Other Schools Tracker

    I posted this thread last year just as kind of a way to keep tabs on former Cyclone men's basketball players now lovers scorned playing for new schools. The goal isn't really to play "what if" but rather to be informative in nature. We as fans (or at least I do this) become invested in these...

    Kayden Fish Thread

    I just saw on the Cyclones official website that he is listed at 6'6'' 250. There's big, and then there's Kayden Fish big. 6'6'' 250 as an 18 year old Freshman is insane! Do we know if it's good weight? For reference, Robert Jones is also 250 lbs. At 6'10''.

    "It's good for the state!"

    I've been told this by several hawk fan friends I have after the Iowa women's final 4 win moments ago. Can someone please explain this logic to me?

    Texas Tech announces new men's basketball coach

They played a really slow, grind you out style this year, they may have been...

    In need of a Corner 3 pod...

    Hey Jared and Chris, really curious to hear some of your reaction to the drubbing last night. I am a sucker for punishment, what can I say? When can we expect a Corner 3/Reaction pod?

    What's everybody got for the Cy-Hawk game?

    I grabbed Iowa State at +4.5. Public and sharp money really coming in on ISU currently. Some money coming in on the over to, which I took at o138. Not sure I really feel about it though. If Murray doesn't play, I don't know how this is a high scoring affair. I figure Iowa State will top out...

    Outgoing transfer tracker

    https://cyclonefanatic.com/2022/11/jayden-gray-enters-transfer-portal/ Connor reports that Jayden Gray is hitting the portal. First Cyclone of a few I'm sure. Lower rated 3-star defensive end out of TX. No other P5 offers besides Iowa State. I am guessing he was pretty far away from making an...

    Jeff Woody hopes we lose to TCU on Saturday

    For the sake of conference integrity moving forward, based on the most recent FARTcast. He mentioned that it would be good for the Big 12 to have someone other than Oklahoma make the CFP, to prove that moving forward, the conference is a still a serious contender without the two big dogs to prop...

    After some research, I've come around on Dekkers

    Currently ranked 1st in the Big 12 in passing yards, completion %, completions in general, and somehow tied for 2nd in TDs despite playing in the conferences worst offense. Yes, he also leads the conference in sacks taken and INT. But I have been overly critical of him down the stretch, to the...

    Time to call a spade a spade.

    This team is bad. I fear for what type of attrition we see this offseason. This snowball might be just starting its downward roll.

    Former Cyclones at other schools 2022-23 season

    25% Profit boost on DK for Iowa State/ West Virginia

    Wasn't gonna touch it, but with the weather situation, West Virginia down to 4th string RB (allegedly) and traveling, I am betting 2 units on State -6.5 boosted to +113 with this promo. Maybe I'm crazy, but felt a wild hair when I saw the number had gone under 7 and DK was offering the promo.

    3 games in; how good is the offense?

    Pretty good I'd say. The O-Line is shaping up to be the best we've seen in the Campbell era, sans the 2020 season, and they get some good push in the run game which is something we've maybe never seen. The RB room very good, and very deep, though I think would have some concern is J. Brock went...

    Bringing young son to first Cyclone football game

    I am trying to get hillside tickets, because he is 21 months old, and I know won't be able to sit in the stands for 4 hours. Haven't been to a game in 9 years so not since there were 4 hillsides. Can't seem to find any info out on the university website nor through 3rd party ticket sites. Any...

    Big 12 preseason bets (futures)

    I hate betting on baseball, so am really chomping at the bet for football to get underway. Here are win totals and what I'm taking for the Big 12 teams this year, numbers all from Draft Kings: West Va 5.5 (under, Neil Brown gets fired) Oklahoma 9.5 (under, right at 9 I think) Texas 8.5 (under...

    Tre Mitchell out at Texas

    You may remember him for his bright orange shoes, his floppy highlight hair, or his banked in three pointer against us in Austin. It appears the big man is taking a leave of absence from UT at the very least. His dad went off on Twitter about Beard apparently too. Texas is gonna Texas, no...

    Worst Experience at Hilton Ever

    I had tickets to go to this game with my brother, who had never been to a game at Hilton vs a Big 12 opponent. Thought it would be a good time to introduce him to the REAL Hilton Magic against a team like Kansas who, let's face it, is the most exciting team we play and probably our biggest...

    Favorite Bets for Conference Championship Weekend (NFL)

    I can't believe in the thick of NFL Playoffs and the Sports Betting Lounge hasn't had any discussion in almost 2 weeks. Figured I'd change that and get some discussion going centered around the AFC and NFC Championship games. Maybe we can help each other win some money. The games this weekend...

    Worst offense in the Big 12?

    I realize most teams are only 3 games in, and the book hasn't even come close to being written on the season yet. But the cyclones have forced me to think about this question a lot in 2 of the last 3 halves they've played (1st half vs OU today was really good, almost flukey good)
