  • Iowa State Cyclones Power Ranking: Big 12's #1 Team or Pretender? | Beatline Cyclones
    2026/08/22
    Iowa State Cyclones are ranked 1st in the Big 12 heading into 2026. We break down why they're on top, the strengths of their offensive line and running game, and the question marks at quarterback. Dave predicts 9 wins, Rachel says 10-2 with a playoff push.

    We analyze the roster, including running back Caleb Francois, offensive linemen Austin Barrett and Gavin Broscious, and quarterbacks Zane Flores and Hudson Kurland. The Big 12 is wide open with Texas Tech and BYU as challengers, but Iowa State's stability under Matt Campbell gives them an edge.

    Can Iowa State live up to the hype? We give our realistic season outlook and win projection.

  • Iowa State QB Battle, RB Logjam, Life After Campbell | Beatline Cyclones
    2026/08/20
    Iowa State Cyclones football is days away from kickoff with a new head coach and a wide-open quarterback competition. The team sits atop the Big 12 standings, but questions loom about the offense's identity and the post-Matt Campbell era. This mailbag episode, hosted by Rachel and Dave, addresses the biggest concerns and storylines heading into the season.

    The show breaks down the quarterback derby among Wyatt Bohm, Zane Flores, Hudson Kurland, and Connor Moberly, with Dave leaning toward Bohm's experience. The running back room features seven scholarship backs, including Salahadin Allah, Wyatt Archer, Arnold Barnes III, Aiden Flora, Caleb Francois, Easton Miller, and Ryver Peppers. The offensive line is a major concern with thirteen linemen but no proven starting five. The wide receiver and tight end groups, featuring Jordyn Bailey, Evan Boyd, Ty Claiborne, and others, provide weapons for whoever wins the QB job. The hosts also discuss the Big 12 race, with Texas Tech and BYU as contenders, and answer fan questions about the coaching transition and a hypothetical franchise player.

    This episode is a must-listen for Cyclone Nation, offering in-depth analysis and answering fan-submitted questions. Hosts Rachel and Dave deliver daily coverage as the season approaches. Subscribe, rate, and share to stay updated on all things Iowa State football.
