Iowa State Now 3-0
A Jack Trice Stadium crowd of 55,783 — the fourth-largest in school history — came alive as the Cyclones scored touchdowns on their first two possessions and then cruised past Western Illinois 37-3.
Iowa State now stands 3-0 as the Big XII season gets underway.
Western Illinois never advanced beyond Iowa State’s 44-yard line in the first half and finished with an average of 2.7 yards per rush and a total of 75 passing yards.
The Cyclones have a week off before hosting Texas Tech in their Big 12 opener Sept. 29.
Iowa is Once Again a 'Cyclone State'
Iowa State downs Iowa 9-6 to win the Cy-Hawk in 2012.
Big XII Basketball Play of the Day for 2/26/11: Iowa State
A pick em game today in Ames. Nebraska is looking to improve on their 18-9 record and Iowa State is looking to earn their second conference win.
Neither team has much going for it in the trends department, I just think we may see some good ole Hilton Magic today as the season draws closer to tournament time.
The Cornhuskers won earlier this season by one point in Lincoln. Look for the Cyclones to get some much needed revenge today.
Prediction: Iowa State and the Under today in Ames.
The Big Game, if you are in Iowa
This is the big game on Saturday if you live in the Midwest between the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers.
Predictions: The game will be closer than last year's 35-3 blowout won by Iowa.
Both Iowa and Iowa State could be better teams than they were last year, and both teams had bowl wins.
Both teams are well coached. Iowa by Kirk Ferentz and ISU by Paul Rhoads.
The game being in Iowa City is a big plus for Iowa.
Enjoy this rivalry, there is a chance this game might not occur with scheduling problems coming from conference realignment.
The final score will be 23-20 Iowa State.
Yes, I'm an Iowa State fan.
