Iowa State kicks off their season Monday night against Green Bay, so we gathered each WRNL member around Matthias’ basement card table and held a seance to see what the spirits whispered. After the ghosts got done making Brian Ferentz jokes, here’s what each person heard!

Non-Conference Record (13 games) 12-1
Iowa State’s non-conference schedule this year really is a sight to behold. Signing up to play Duke, UCONN, UNC, Bill Walton’s 1973 UCLA team, the Fab Five, AND Purdue really will stress this young team and push them early. Or, Iowa State will test their mettle in the ESPN Events Invitational against a VCU team that lost their top 7 scorers from last year, Boise State (lost to Northwestern in the tourney last year) or Virginia Tech (NIT), or any of Penn State, Texas A&M, Butler, or FAU.
