The Iowa State University Cyclones entered Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City on Saturday, Sept. 7 and pulled off an unlikely victory over the No. 21-ranked University of Iowa Hawkeyes. The Hawkeyes vs the Cyclones is one of the oldest rivalries in college football, dating back to 1894 when they first squared off. Tens of thousands of fans flock to the game each year to enthusiastically cheer for their team, and this year’s rivalry game spared no concern for their heart rates.
Late-game heroics from Cyclone quarterback Rocco Becht and wide receiver Jaylin Noel brought Iowa State within field goal range in the final minute.
