    Idea on College Football’s Future Outlook

    Not sure if you guys have heard Chip Kelly's take on college football but here it is. He said what should be done is take the power 5 conferences in football only and put them all together and divide the teams up just like they do in the NFL. You would have a North, South, East, and West...

    Men’s BB eligibility

    Now that the season has tipped off and we have several new players on the court. Can someone bring me up to date on eligibility left on our basketball players? Some of these transfers, like Keshon Gilbert and Curtis Jones I’m not sure on how much eligibility they have left. Thanks!!

    Towels

    When will JP dig a little deeper in the pockets and buy 60,000 towels for most everyone in the stadium. It looks really cool when everyone in the stadium has them not just the students who are tucked in a corner of the stadium. If you’re going to do this, do it for those of us that pay good...

    Fake Field Goal Question

    I use to coach hs football for 20 years. We ran a play off of our extra point team where the kicker followed through and missed the ball on purpose. The holder simultaneously threw the ball end over end in the air over the LOS looking like it was a bad kick. My ends would crash down and catch...

    Pregame atmosphere

    In all the years I’ve been a season ticket holder, 29, last night was the best pregame atmosphere I have ever seen at Jack Trice! Loved the Thunderstruck theme as the team made their way to the field. The fireworks were a bonus! You could feel the energy everywhere. Hopefully we stay with this...

    Line coach

    I kept hearing how great this line coach is….well, I don’t think the line is any better! Actually, I think they are worse. So far this season, we have rushed for 259 total yards on 95 attempts in 3 games… a little over 86 yards a game at 2.73 yards per rush. That is not getting it done in the...

Sorry but I have dejavu of last years beating at TCU…only on a regular basis! Flu or no flu, we are going to be the Kansas of years past! Sorry but...

    Gamblin…Smoke and Fire

    I’m hearing through various people that those athletes at both Iowa and Iowa State that were involved with betting, supposedly, an example is going to be made and they are going to come down hard on those athletes. I’m hearing 50-70 percent of their season may be lost for those individual...

    Atmosphere...PA announcer...no Juicy Wiggle

    Can't take away the fact our team played hard and will continue to do so however, it would be nice to keep your crowd in the game and keep the Jack jacked. Not last night. It started with our weather announcement stating "All Bears fans should take cover" Bears? we played the Wildcats! Then...

    Want to buy a jersey

    So I thought Mrs. Claus would get me a white or black football jersey for Christmas. Apparently, they are hard to find especially in a bigger size 2XL or 3XL. Does anyone know of a web site or a place that sells Iowa State football jersey's for adults? Thanks!

    Iowa/Iowa St.

    Just watched the Iowa vs Michigan game. Couple thoughts/questions concerning the upcoming game. I do think it will be a good game. If we can hit the outside shot, we should win. However, if the officials let them play, like they did in the Michigan game, we could be in for a long night. Garza...

    Game Atmosphere

    This is my 19th year as a season ticket holder and taking in a game at JTS has been a great experience...it gets better every year!

    Press Box Question

    Some friends of mind and I were talking football and conversation went to stadiums. I love our stadium but have to say our press box is little compared to others within the conference and other power 5 schools. Just curious if anyone knows if there has been any talk about expansion?
