The story of Jack Trice is an important chapter of
@CycloneFB
history. His death in 1923 shocked the Ames community and we continue to educate and learn more about his legacy. Here is a photo of his funeral held on campus by the campanile.
UPDATE: Joel Lanning (
@JFL_02
) is the first player in FBS with a sack, interception, fumble recovery, rushing TD and passing TD in a season since current Baltimore Raven
@weddlesbeard
did it at Utah in 2006.

All I know is that I’m witnessing the most fruitful period of Cyclone football behind a head coach who is beloved by his players and inspires them to achieve greatness daily.
It’s such a joy to watch and I can’t wait for the next one.
Not sure why everyone is up in arms. Iowa State just won three-straight Big 12 games vs. teams that had winning records at kickoff by a combined score of 110-26.
Brock Purdy since the 2nd half of the Baylor game (last 14 Qtrs).
70-91 (76.9 pct.) passing, 903 yards, 10 TDs, zero INTs.
161 rushing yards, 1 TD
ELITE
Shoutout to Greg Eisworth, who is the first Cyclone to earn 1st-team honors 3 times in Big 12 history (1996-present). The last Cyclone to do it was PR James McMillion (Big Eight) from 1991-93. The last position player was Dwight Nichols (Big Seven) from 1957-59.
Big 12 players to receive Offensive Player of the Year honors multiple times...
Ricky Williams, UT- 1997-98
Jason White, OU- 2003-04
Baker Mayfield, OU- 2015, 17
Breece Hall, ISU- 2020-21

Iowa State has six players active in the NFL Divisional Round Playoffs.
Brock Purdy (San Francisco)
A.J. Klein (Buffalo)
Anthony Johnson Jr. (Green Bay)
David Montgomery (Detroit)
Xavier Hutchinson (Houston)
Charlie Kolar (Baltimore)
When was the last time a FBS player ended a season with a sack, interception, fumble recovery, rushing TD and a passing TD? Absolutely incredible what Joel Lanning (
@JFL_02
) is doing.

After Celia won the Big 12 title, I talked to her on the phone to get some quotes for my story. She, in her funny way, scolded me for using this photo with a one-arm
follow through. Every time I see this photo it makes me smile.

Matt Campbell now has the best winning percentage (modern era- 1928-present) in Iowa State history after the Baylor win. Remember, Campbell started his ISU career at 1-8.
1. Matt Campbell - .534 pct. (31-27)
2. Earle Bruce - .529 pct. (36-32)
Brock Purdy’s online Iowa State bio has 3,567 page views since Sunday night. For reference it had 323 views during the same time frame a year ago. Purdy Mania!!
Matt Campbell now owns a victory on the road vs. every Big 12 opponent, a first in school history.
He owns 38.9% of ISU's all-time wins vs. Big 12 Conference (1996-2021) teams (28-of-72).
ISU AD Jamie Pollard at his introductory press conference in September of 2005. To say that the ISU Athletics Department is in a much better place now is an enormous understatement.

I think he's worthy of 28.
Fastest to 1,000 yards in Iowa State history.
1. Troy Davis- 153 carries in 1995
2. Breece Hall- 155 carries 2020.

Today was Coach Campbell’s 4th win over a ranked team on the road in his ISU tenure. ISU only has 10 all-time in school history. That’s 40 pct., folks.
Iowa State's 20 Big 12 wins since 2017 is the best four-year conference winning period in school history. It's also tied for second in the Big 12 during that span.
1. Oklahoma - 27
2. Iowa State - 20
Texas - 20

Bill Fennelly and Larry Eustachy watch the 2000 NCAA selection show in a ballroom in Kansas City. The 2000 and 2022 seasons are the only two times in Cyclone history where the men's and women's programs made the Sweet Sixteen in the same year.

The Cyclone family lost a true friend last night in Bob Foster. Bob was the engineer/producer for Cyclone football radio broadcasts in the 1990s and 2000s. We called him MacGyver because he could solve any problem thrown at him. A true professional who loved ISU!
#RIP
Bob.
In 1975, Joe Walsh joined the Eagles to give the band a jolt of energy with his electric guitar. Hang on, being told this is Iowa State tight end Chase Allen.
So happy for Charlie. He's the first Cyclone football player to earn Academic All-America honors since 2002. Also the only football player in school history to be an All-American and Academic All-American.
Congrats,
