Perhaps a hot-air balloon reading "Tortious Interference," flying high above the festivities.

Don’t remember where the speculation was posted, but it sounds like it will indeed be Rece and Herbie calling our game (from their own mouths during the Ol’Miss/Louisville game).

Jamie just said on the Call-In show that it's important that our fans show up and put on a good show. Says with all the Big 12 stuff, etc., it's a chance to market ISU's athletics and the university.
Yeah I heard him too. Doesn't appear Pollard would be too happy if there were derogatory signs or heckling of the ESPN crew...

We have to ask ourselves the question…

What do we gain from heckling the ESPN people? It’s not going to change anything. Nor will it bother the ESPN people. It only makes us look petty, that’s really it.

I really don't want us to heckle the crew/announcers, but I think some anti ESPN signs (e.g. tortious interference) and potentially booing if/when ESPN does a promo for a different show could be fine. After all, if they're at Wisconsin, mentioning Minnesota/Ohio State is going to cause the crowd to boo and I don't think there's a lot wrong with that

It should be Nate Mooney, aka Ryan McPoyle from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Aerospace Engineering degree from ISU.

I had classes with that guy! Lost my mind when I realized it was him as an actor; first figured it out watching "Push".

I'm always doing the "that guy" thing watching movies and TV, which drives the gf nuts. But I was genuinely shocked when it really WAS "he looks like a guy I went to college with..."

Yep, this is correct. Holly Rowe on the sidelines too.

My Ducks really limped out of the gate against Fresno State and I'm bracing to watch them be non-consensually sexualized in The Shoe next weekend.

Don't fret yet - Fresno already had a game under their belt and that is a huge deal imho, getting the rust and jitters out. Plus they are legit good, might be Top25 good. The 20 point line was easy money.

Also, I think you have the athletes to compete with OSU, just need to do the basics - hold on to the ball, run the ball, stop the run. OSU is fast but Minny was right there until their lead dog got hurt. Ducks will be right there in it if they don't beat themselves.

I agree with others here that think Shough was the better QB, and don't understand why the other guy took his spot...

That would be a mindblowing experience. I love Sunny and the McPoyle brothers, and I was shocked when I read he was an alum

I don’t blame him but I Wonder if drunk college students can be told what to do and actually listen.
As a former drunk college student I can confirm the answer is "no"
Quoted for truth.

ISU football is on the map now. The student section comes with success as well. For both good and bad.

Personally, I'm in the "go big or go home" camp. It is just college after all and you never get those days back.
