    Worse Iowa State teams have beaten better Oklahoma and Nebraska teams over the years. Last year's win in Lincoln being one of those.

    Touchdown Cyclones. Lot of nervous furniture in Ames right now.

    Without in any way checking ISU's history, I'd doubt it. Not like Texas is undefeated or anything.

    As for the worst loss for Texas, again I'd doubt it. Maybe if the Clones ring up 30 more points here, but still.

    This is a very average Texas team. If Nebraska's receivers could catch a fucking football UT would be looking at their fourth loss in a row.

    Texas is getting schooled as a 20-point favorite against a team that was outscored by nearly a hundred points its last two games. Gotta be a Top 5 all time worst loss for that program.

    Been funny to watch the changing expressions in the crowd shots at the Texas game. They've gone from smirking, "That's OK, we'll get this thing rolling and win 52-14" smiles; to nervous, "We're going to pull this thing out, right? Right?"; to just being pissed off right now.

    So we might get to LSU-Auburn in time for the second half kickoff. Great.

    They had a pretty big win over an Iowa team that went 11-2 and went to the Rose Bowl in 2002. That ISU team was 7-3 before losing its last four, including against Boise State in the Humanitarian Bowl.

    I'd list a couple of the early 2000s OU ass-kickings, the 66-3 rout at home by UCLA and a couple of the dump-truckings they took at the hands of the run-and-shoot Houston Cougars in the early 80s as worse than this.

    We're watching to wait for one of the stoic cowboys in a cowboy hat to break down in tears.

    Jesus, between Notre Dame getting torpedoed by Navy, Iowa State dumptrucking Texas and Purdue taking a Godzilla-size asskicking, this is a good day.

    The postgame call-in show on the Longhorn network should be comedy gold today.

    Has Denard Robinson fallen off the Heisman lists that quickly?

    NBC just showed a Heisman hopeful graphic, listing James, Newton, Murray and Moore.
