Classic Games in Cyclone Football History: 1951 at Marquette

Iowa State, under direction of Abe Stuber, marched their Big 7 squad up to Milwaukee for their third game of the season. Little did the 1-1 Cyclones know, that they would be met by a driving rain that lasted the entire game with a wind that blew at a steady 15 miles per hour.

The opening kickoff by Iowa State goes just over 20 yards in the torrential downpour. The Cyclones have 8 defenders on the defensive line. The Golden Avalanche would use their opening drive to have lots of rushes up the middle.
