Covering Iowa State athletics with enough humor to keep our sanity.
Iowa State Defensive Line Again, perhaps a softball answer here, but the Iowa State defensive line is going to need to be on it’s A-game this week and probably every week after now (and every week really in conference play) with the injury pileup in the secondary. Getting pressure on the quarterback and forcing whoever […]

Iowa State Running Back Room Carson Hansen and Abu Sama have clearly been the most consistent group for the Cyclone offense so far this year. While they’ve had their own battles with injuries and low output games, it almost seems that even when one of them struggles, the other one picks up the load and […]

Yeah, we’re still doing this. College football honestly just feels like a chore right now. Iowa State’s season is over. At this point, we just need to pick up a 6th win somewhere. With that said, college basketball did start this week. So before we get into football bets, I do have a few thoughts […]

For the third year in a row, the Cyclone Women’s Basketball Team took on the St. Thomas (MN) Tommies in the non-conference schedule and for the the third year in a row, it was all Iowa State. Audi Crooks and Addy Brown were exactly who Cyclone fans, and WBB fans in general, have come to […]

Man oh man… What Went Wrong Passing Offense I don’t really know what to say at this point. We are now 9 games into a 12 game season… the diagnosis simply cannot be “they’re not on the same page” anymore. We’re well beyond that expiration date with the communication, or lack thereof, between the quarterback […]

Last Time Out The Cyclones started strong against Ole Miss with a 13-5 lead, but the Rebels quickly seized control with a dominant 23-4 run sparked by unusually hot shooting, while Iowa State struggled offensively due to fatigue and injuries. Ole Miss led 40-29 at halftime and continued to dictate the game early in the […]

The beginning of the game just felt like leftovers from the BYU game. A great start to a drive, it then stalls due to sloppiness, and it’s finished off with a special teams fail. Each team traded field goals in the first quarter before Iowa State got on track, thanks to come pentlaites, and scored […]

What happened? It’s already week 10 and Iowa State has only 2 home games remaining in the 2025 season. It all feels lost with the way things have gone for the Cyclones on this losing streak. However, I will be in Ames on Saturday, and I’ll be there in 3 weeks when Kansas comes to […]

This defense gives me a bigger migraine than trying to explain to Hawk fans that they aren’t that good. One play we look like a defense that won’t allow a single yard by ground or air, then we look away for two seconds, and our secondary has a coverage lapse that even Uncle Rico could […]

Last week was a bizarre game. We saw the offense clicking on all cylinders and looked to have the capability to score over 40 points on BYU’s defense, but it all crumbled down in the second half. Missed throws and miscommunication seemed to plague the pass game throughout the rest of the game, and we […]

Iowa State has lost three games in a row just twice since Matt Campbell’s first year in Ames. A 5-game losing streak in the middle of 2022 and a 3-game skid to close out that same year when the Cyclones finished 4-8 overall and 1-8 in the Big 12. Could they avoid such a streak […]

Just when you think it couldn’t get any worse. Iowa State shot themselves in both feet with howitzers Saturday afternoon, dropping a huge game at home to BYU by a final score of 41-27. A promising start turned into an absolute rout in the second half, and the players and coaching staff have a lot […]

Has anyone watched a Big 12 game this year and enjoyed it? Too bad. That shouldn’t matter. Not enough people made the same decision you did. That’s right. It’s late October and it’s time for Ratings Discourse. This should come as a surprise to no one, but the Big 12 isn’t doing great in the […]

Coming back from a weekend where I didn’t have to watch our secondary get burned to a crisp was a breath of fresh air, and with that, a new mentality. That mentality is Heacock fixed all our problems, our defense will become a Top 5 defense by the end of the season, and I can […]
