10. Iowa State Cyclones

Record: 1-8 (0-6)

Previous Ranking: 10

Last Week: TCU 21, ISU 17

This Week: at #18 Oklahoma

Next Week: vs Kansas

Goal-line stands against Texas teams are not going well for Iowa State. Two plays in those situations and Iowa State is in a much different position heading into the final three games of the season. Alas…

ISU will now travel to Norman, Oklahoma to face a Sooners team that just got knocked in Waco last Thursday. This is not a situation the Cyclones want to be in as Bob Stoops is not the kind of coach who allows his team to lose two-straight games. Not without a big fight, anyway.

However, Iowa State should get a solid opportunity for win number two in two weeks against Kansas – a game exactly seven people may watch.
