Greenlee JLMC '99. I cover local government in SE Iowa. I scream at the TV for 49ers, Cyclones, Blues and (sometimes) Titans. Trying to re-invent my golf game.
A lot of Big 12 games will be this way. Good gut check win for the Cyclones. Certainly an ugly game, but Iowa had a lot to do with that. #BlueCy

I mean, you have to take into account who's guarding her, her own positioning, and her wingspan. There are times it looks like a pass headed straight out of bounds, and yet it's only where she can reach it. #BlueCy
Iowa State has perfected the lob to Audi inside to where only she can get it. Iowa defended her better than anyone this year and still couldn't keep her under 30. #BlueCy

I mean, if we can have anything resembling the Lions' explosive offense, that would be awesome. #BlueCy

Jimmy Rogers is Matt Campbell in 2016. Outsider, no one knew him. Matt won three games first year b/c Rhoads left him a 3-9 mess. How far ahead of Matt's curve will Rogers be if the program reaches a bowl game with a likely altered roster? To me, that should be the goal next year. #BlueCy

How high does Iowa State get ranked next week? Gotta be top five I think. Hard to ignore complete domination on the road against No. 1. #BlueCy

Can't blame Campbell if he leaves, but along with more $ will come more expectations. Ten or 11 wins every year, CFP hunt annually. He could've been ISU's version of Ferentz or Snyder. Three other coaches turned down PSU, so I'd be a little insulted as fourth fiddle. They're desperate. #BlueCy

Sama is so good, but such an enigma. Unreal speed, but either he can't hit the hole aggressively or the OL doesn't open holes at all. They don't have to hold blocks long because he's gone once he reaches the second level. #BlueCy

The Blues are 5-4-6 when scoring first. Enjoy it now, because it's basically a coin flip whether they can actually finish it.

I think Blake read this post at halftime. Money rebounds and putbacks late.
Sure would like to see Buchanan either rebound or defend. So far, he's doing neither. #BlueCy

Today was my first ISU football game despite graduating from there (never wanted to freeze to death to watch a bad team in the late '90s). Just an impressive gameday experience and glad I didn't see a clunker. #BlueCy

Really strong showing by the fans today given Thanksgiving break has started. And the Cyclones have picked up where they left off against TCU. #BlueCy

And I don't know what I'd do with the goalies. Binner has been terrible but has the winning pedigree despite getting older. Hofer has never had full-time work, so who knows what he has over 50-55 games.
IMO, the only Blues untouchables are Thomas, Snuggerud, Dvorsky, Holloway and Broberg. You can get rid of anyone else. Problem is, Army's saddled the team with awful contracts with mostly full NTC.
