They have just been KILLIN' it this season !!! Saturday night's show was fantastic !! I don't have a kid in the group anymore, but all their HARD WORK does not go unnoticed ! For me, LOVE what they add to my game experience !!!

10 months ago, the program we beat this weekend was playing for the national title. Saturday's game left no doubt; it was domination.

Yesterday, was there any program in the country whose alumni were collectively more dynamic than ISU's.

With respect, CMC haters need to sit down and enjoy the new reality. ISU football matters, and the guys in charge know how to find, deliver, retain, and develop high-character winners.

Think this story deserves some airtime. Biden's Iran envoy and some other State Dept folk under investigation for "mishandling" classified info ABOUT IRAN.

Very thankful for Jordan Langs hire and how they actually studied film and prepared for this and waited for key time to deploy. Past teams to my knowledge would have never saw this without a designated (so it seems) ST guy. Also, did anyone else (SIAP) notice that the spot on Nikkels return was off 5 yds? Announcers said it was Brahmer but they share same #. Rewatched, he didn't step out. Having ball at 6 vs 11 yd line may have made difference in FG vs TD. Challenges seem to be rare anymore. Do they even have them? Does ISU have someone watching replays to check these usually bad officials and alert Matt on sidelines? Or did I miss something in this ball spot?

Don't be alarmed, I'm just working a little ahead this week! Iowa State's head coach will be in front of the media at around 12:15 on Tuesday afternoon inside the Stark Performance Center. I'll be posting highlights in the thread below.

MVP ?

Check out the graphic at the 2:22 mark.

Iowa State wraps up the summer camp season this evening with the fourth and final mid-week session. I've been swamped all day with Cyclone news, so here's a quick list of some kids expected in Ames tonight. I'll fill in with some more as I get them. Two clear headliners I'll be spending a lot of time watching are 2024 Cyclone quarterback commit/Southeast Polk HS rising senior Connor Moberly and offered 2025 Clear Lake (IA) defensive end/tight end Thomas Meyer.

Let's win out!
Go crazy everybody!!!

We are a ball picking machine.
I bitched about never getting turnovers.
WE do now.

The offense is now applying what look like offensive football concepts.
Nate gets better every game.

I wouldn't trade Rocco for many guys not named Caleb.
He was a "hair off" on some throws but still great last night.

I do like beating some horny frog.

Our coach is much brighter than the guy coaching Miami. Florida type.
Nice job snatching defeat by not running Victory formation.
Oregon was lucky he moved on.

I like Mini Matt in the stands.
Down to the play cards.
Got a lot of TV time.

We did Jack Proud.

AMES, Iowa - Beau Freyler has been named the Big 12 Defensive Player of the Week, the league office announced Monday.

It is the first Big 12 weekly honor of Freyler's career and he is the second Cyclone to be named the league's defensive player of the week this season, along with Jeremiah Cooper.

Freyler led the way for the Cyclone defense with two interceptions to go along with a team-leading and season-high 11 tackles in a 27-14 ISU victory over TCU. Both of his takeaways occurred in the red zone to stop threatening Horned Frog drives.

The Colorado Springs, Colo. native is the only player in the Big 12 to rank in the top 10 of the league in interceptions (3) and tackles (46) this season. His three interceptions on the year are tied for the seventh-most nationally.

Freyler now has five career games with 10-plus tackles.

Iowa State is back in action Saturday, Oct. 14 at Cincinnati. Kickoff is set for 11 a.m. (CT) on FS1.

This is the first opportunity I've had to watch Purdy as a pro. Good grief, he stays so cool and aware in the pocket. And that TD pass on a scramble was a beauty. What a story he's become.

I know the Brock Purdy story has captured our attention. But what about our most 2 recent running backs? I ask not which one is best. Which running back do you have the most affinity for?

Like if somebody were to give you a David Montgomery or Breece Hall ISU jersey, which one would you take? Setting the team they current play for aside, which one would you rather get a Super Bowl ring?

Tough choice for me, wanted to see y'alls thoughts

Let’s hope that the current Big 12 governing body becomes very aware of this news release: https://share.newsbreak.com/53rie8ek

We never want another Texas in the Big 12!!

... and the quarterbacks who led them:

15. 1999-2000 Rams, Kurt Warner
13. 2010-11 Patriots, Tom Brady
11. 2012-13 Broncos, Peyton Manning
9. 2006-07 Patriots, Tom Brady
8. 2022-23 49ers, Brock Purdy.

BH and AL will get numbers but this team feels like a mess.

but the video board guy finding the random TCU fan Sat night and superimposing a crying emoji over his head was pretty freakin awesome. If someone can find it on the social media formerly known as Twitter, please link.
