Cyclones Beat Kansas 34-0, but I've kind of already moved on to football.   I'm sure I'll have West Virginia preview later this week.  Kansas beat West Virginia, but that was a home game for the Jayhawks.

The University of Missouri Kansas City Running Roos as in Kangaroos are currently 1-3 on the year.   Facing an over matched team like the cyclones, all I can say is   .........

A Blind Man could call this one

Not Kangaroo - Tatonka

Jayhawks of Kansas.

Billy Gardell from Mike and Molly
Or Charlie Weis

Really Like that guy? 



Kansas Running back James Sims earned Big 12 co-offensive player of the week honors alongside Baylor quarterback Bryce Petty last week against West Virginia.  Sims set a career high with 211 rushing yards, and he scored three touchdowns during a 31-19 win over West Virginia (who is Iowa State's next opponent).   This isn't great news because the Iowa State run defense or defense in general has not been a strength for the Cyclones.   I expect some big plays Saturday for Kansas.   Yes Iowa State is favored in the this game.   Somebody must be drinking on the job.   

Who Ordered the Smedium?

On a positive note, "Fish Sticks" The Iowa State punter Kirby Van Der Kamp was invited to participate in the 2014 Senior Bowl, an all-star game played annually in Mobile, Ala., for football players who have completed their eligibility.  Van Der Kamp has been a serious weapon for Iowa State over the last few years.  We wish him the best.   When you punt for for a team like Iowa State you have plenty of opportunity to display your skills.  Great job. 

And a Shout out to Tyler Haws "Beavis" from BYU, Butthead. 

I'm just Sayin" ! ! !

I'm Just Sayin'

Big Win over Michigan.   But, now we have a road test against The BYU Fighting Morons, er Mormons.   I mean The Fighting COUGARS.   Iowa State jumps to a 21st ranking in the poles and BYU gets two votes.   Let's assume those writers are from Provost, UT and Salt Lake City, UT.    The Cougars (and not the good kind of Cougars), are currently 4-0.  Tyler Haws the 6-5 junior leads the Cougar attack and averages 29 points a game and 10 rebounds.  Haws has been out the last two games, but after watcing ISU/Michigan game film I would guess Haws is back on the court on Wednesday.   Currently through the first 4 games the Cougs are averaging 100.3 points per game.  This will be no easy test for Freddie and the Cyclones, this one has me more scared than Michigan.  I can't wait for Wednesday night.

Sports Talk With The Commish.

Commissioner: We have our old friend Terri from Ames on today.  


Terri from Ames: Hey Commish, do you know if Bobby Stoops Oklahoma's Head Coach is single?   I think he is just dreamy, I would love to grab a hunk of that man meat.



Commissioner:  WRONG! Although I'm sure you are a vegan, it sounds as though you may be suffering from the Meat Sweats.  I will give you this, I have searched the last three years for pictures of Bobby Stoops in funny or compromising poses.   I just can't find any.   My favorite Bobby Stoops story.   When I was just a pup listening to the Iowa Squaks - Bobby played Defensive Back for the Iowa Squakeyes, and while playing Michigan State, they had the old style wooden goal posts.   Bobby during defensive coverage, ran into the goal posts, and knocked them over.  Classic Bobby. 

For Netten not the kicker

Terri from Ames: How would you currently rank the Iowa State defensive backs? 

Commissioner: WRONG!  Here is how I would currently rank our defensive backs compared to the other defensive backs in the NCAA.

1. Kenneth Acker, Southern Methodist
2. Ricardo Allen , Purdue 

189. Uncle Rico, Napoleon Dynamite

692. Rabbi Yerachum, Jewish Flag League

4005-4009. Any of the Iowa State Defensive Backs

Terri from Ames: How do you think the Cyclone Women's Basketball Team will do this year?

No You Da Man

Commissioner:  WRONG!  I quite honestly would rather spend time planning my winter color pallet.  Go back to needle point while tuning into Iowa State Woman's Basketball.  I would like some Cardinal and Gold ear muffs for Christmas.  

Terri from Ames: What do you think are our chances against #7 Michigan in basketball Sunday? 

Commissioner: WRONG!  I think we can play with anybody in the country.  We proved that against Kentucky and Ohio State during the NCAA Tourney the last two years.   It doesn't matter if Melvin Egim is currently injured.   Fred Hoiberg doesn't rebuild he reloads. By reload I mean the good kind in terms of basketball recruiting, Meat Sweats.   

Heart Attack.

The Kickoff Return at the end of the half versus Oklahoma

Over and Out.

My Thoughts on the rest of the Season

 Iowa State (1-8) at (22) Oklahoma (7-2)

This one doesn't look close.   Althought the Sooners will not win the conference since they lost last week to the first place Baylor Bears. Overall, the Sooners own a 69-5-2 all-time advantage vs. the Cyclones. Oklahoma has won 14 straight meetings between the two schools, including an 8-0 record under head coach Bob Stoops.
