Covering Iowa State athletics with enough humor to keep our sanity.
Austin, Matt, and Dylan mourn the end of Iowa State’s mens basketball season after losing the exhibition to Creighton. Matt actually did watch it, so he has some insight for us. We also hand out our weekly 6 pack and celebrate fans that paid for the game plus the arrival of fall weather. We’re cautiously […]

Is Iowa State football broken? It sort of feels that way, doesn’t it? After a 2nd straight loss, on the road, the Cyclones’ Big 12 championship aspirations seem dashed, and a 3rd kicker injury has us all scratching our heads. Seriously, I had Colorado fans in the stands last week asking me how 2 kickers […]

Austin Keeney, Matt Nelson, and Dylan Coon are all back together to discuss Iowa State’s disappointing loss to Colorado. Austin had an unfortunate weekend dealing with unruly fans and high prices in Boulder. The guys try to make sense of how a team can have 3 kicker injuries in one year on top of everything […]

It’s the return of a classic Big 12 Rivalry as the Cyclones head off to Boulder, CO with a fair number of fans making the trip. What could possibly go wrong…? (A lot) What Went Wrong Play-calling while not having a kicker So I mentioned this a little bit last week, but it seems like […]

Iowa State Athletics LOSING GRIP. On the 2025 seasons are the Cyclones. RED ZONE. Has been the glaring issue for the offense. BAD NO CALL. The Big 12 should step up and address the PI call. THICKER. At least we got to see the emergency kicker. SENSATIONAL FRESHMAN. TJ is really excited about 2 young […]

Iowa State completely melted in a road loss to Colorado Saturday night, dropping a bad one to the pathetic Colorado Buffaloes. Self-destruction and coaching malpractice were the order of the day for the Cyclones, who beat themselves at every possible turn. They started the game by squandering great field position on their first 3 drives, […]

I’m going on the road this week. I have never been to Boulder, but I am excited to check this one off the list of Big 12 towns to visit. I’ve looked back in my head and determined that we may have a problem. I have not been successful at seeing road wins, at all. […]

Iowa State As much as I want to just say the linebackers as a whole, I’m going to emphasize Carson Willich. He had his ups and downs on Saturday, and he’ll need to shake off those low points while keeping a strong eye on Kaidon Salter and the Colorado run game. The Cyclones got crushed […]

Iowa State This past weekend against Cincinnati was the first real time we saw the full extent of the Cyclone wide receiver room as Brett Eskildsen, Chase Sowell, and Xavier Townsend combined for 19 catches, 213 yards, and a pair of touchdowns. We haven’t seen as much of Gabe Burkle and Benjamin Brahmer, and the […]
