What's funny about the new Iowa State unis is that they had put three different versions to a fan vote on their website. A few boards from other schools (most notably Texas A&M) posted the link and, as a prank, got everyone to vote for the one they thought was the ugliest...which was the I-State version!

Take a nap that afternoon, the game may last until 1am.

More like - He'll try running a 1-linemen set, 9 linebackers & 1 DB. Err, maybe not. That's ridiculous. We'd give up 600 yards a game that way.

Charlie Strong would be great if we could get him. Maybe he's tired of being CO-DC. He's also one of the best recruiters in the country. http://www.gatorzone.com/insidefootball/?s...&bio=strong

Paulaner Hefeweizen. An decent alternative is Franziskaner Hefe-Weissbier.

Our football team could take some lessons from the volleyball team about how to play with intensity.

Because our offensive line can pass protect a lot better than they can run block.

It's not much different than a college baseball coach overusing his star pitcher to the point where it becomes detrimental to the kid's long term career. Sure, the pitcher doesn't want to be taken out of the game, but if he burns out his arm that is a huge disservice to the kid. (All IMHO, of course.) A college coach should be concerned about the players' best interests, as well as his own. Burning a redshirt for a few plays early in the season, especially in blowout games, is not typically in a kid's best interest. If Niles Paul is relegated to a few special teams plays the rest of the year, then his redshirt was wasted.

Sure they want to play. But if they give up a season for a few inconsequential plays, they often come to regret that decision later.

Yeah, we should have beaten Ball State badly, too. No sure thing with this defense.

It's not fair to the kids to give up a season of eligibility for a few plays, IMHO.

I have no problem with burning redshirts...but play the kids if you're going to. See Niles Paul.

Can Coz. He is in above his head at this level.

John Blake filled the cupboard with talent as head coach at OU, but the results did not show up on the field. Stoops stepped in and took Blake's players to a National Championship. Ditto with Ron Zook and Urban Meyer. Callahan has shown he is a great recruiter, but the results are not showing on the field. (Yes, the offense played well today, AGAINST BALL STATE.) The defense is severely under-performing, and that is putting it mildly. Will Callahan be our John Blake and Ron Zook?

Bowl game? They'd get an at-large invitation to a BCS game.

I am in Texas, but if someone in Lincoln will help organize a booth outside the stadium, I will donate the first hundred cans of food. And maybe come up later in the season to help.

Yeah, so we could win an overtime thriller against Eastern Michigan.

There is no place like Nebraska...to make your team look like an offensive juggernaut.

The defense seems to get worse every game. By the time we get to Austin, we'll give up 1000 yards and 80 points to the Longhorns.

Out. Also receiving votes.

That was an humiliating performance. Cosgrove has to go. A bad defense will get this team nowhere. I've had enough of this.

I just got hit in the head with a big chunk of sky.

Ball State came to play. Tough loss for them. I wish them the best the rest of the season.
