Breaking: Matt Campbell signs contract extension with Iowa State through 2032.
December 11, 2024 at 7:06 PM
Just a massive sack there for Iowa State. Keeps this a one possession game, get the ball back with a chance to tie and ISU gets ball to start the third.
December 7, 2024 at 6:23 PM
I can't understand why that wasn't pass interference.
December 7, 2024 at 6:14 PM
Watching that big play back. Really good read by the QB. Two ISU safeties bit on the RPO. Pop the top and go. Good play. ISU gotta be smarter and not sell out like that.

Big boy opening drive for the Cyclones. A schematic masterpiece. Obviously scripted. But very well at that. Holy cow. Used the entire field, three TEs, diamond, extra linemen, four wide.
December 7, 2024 at 5:23 PM
Given Iowa State's history on defensive opening drives & Scat making that incredible cut/run, giving up three there is a net-win for the Cyclones.

Brahmer, Verdon now both expected to play today for Iowa State. Huge.

Iowa State was tested tonight, and passed it with flying colors. I love watching this team play.

No. 6 Iowa State leads No. 5 Marquette 46-37 at halftime. Marquette hit SEVEN threes and still trails by nine. Iowa State got 18 (!!!) from Keshon Gilbert. Fun half. I expect the whistles to flip a bit in the second 20. Iowa State will get a battle.

No. 6 Iowa State is a 5.5 point favorite over No. 5 Marquette tonight. 7 p.m. tip in Hilton Coliseum.

I’ll be playing for (the seniors)." — Iowa State QB Rocco Becht.

Two of those seniors, Jayden Higgins & Jaylin Noel, could become the Cyclones' first 1,000-yard receiving tandem in program history.

HUGE game vs. K-State tomorrow night.

3 hot takes on your Friday.

1 - Sweet potatoes (when made correctly) = most underrated Thanksgiving food.

2 - The holidays are too much. We have overdone it as a society. Too many expectations, stress. Focus on wrong things.

3 - Lewis Hamilton will be a massive bust at Ferrari.

Iowa State is favored by 8 over Dayton tonight.

No. 17 Iowa State wields "the pen" to put the climactic touches on a historic 2024 season.

It all starts — and ends, in one sense — with Saturday's 6:30 p.m. Farmaggedon game against Kansas State.

Best thing about the CFP rankings this week is that Alabama jumped Miami after beating mighty Mercer. Miami was on a bye. That Mercer win by the Tide really impressed that committee.
