  • Pop Tarts Bowl Preview - Cornfield Sports Pod 12/27/2024
    Dec 28 2024

    It's time for the Cyclones to step up to the plate at Camping World Stadium as they enter the Pop Tarts Bowl against the Miami Hurricanes. The Canes slate up as a tough, strength on strength matchup led by one of the best passer-receiver combos in the country with Cam Ward and Xavier Restrepo. Men's basketball enters Big 12 play in only a few days, and the Cyclones get to enter conference play against Colorado, a team that we already played once, and beat the brakes off of, in Maui. This matchup bodes well for the Cyclones, who have as many ways to score as anybody in the country.

  • The Calm Before The Cyclone - Cornfield Sports Pod 12/20/2024
    Dec 20 2024

    The Iowa State football team has landed four players from the transfer portal who should be immediate contributors on both offense and defense, especially since next year's team will lack playmakers Darien Porter, Jaylin Noel, and Jayden Higgins. Cyclone men's basketball had a relatively quiet week and will have one more week of relative quiet before things heat up in conference play with a trip to Colorado. The women's team, on the other hand, does not get to wait for the Big 12 gauntlet, starting their slate of league games tomorrow against Oklahoma State. Iowa State wrestling will be competing in three duals tomorrow, against Lock Haven, North Carolina, and Ohio State. Projections have the Cyclones coming out of the weekend 2-1, but there is room for things to get a little bit rougher thanks to the injury bug.

  • The Carver Curse is Broken - Cornfield Sports Pod 12/13/2024
    Dec 13 2024

    Cyclone men's basketball finally won at Carver Hawkeye Arena for the first time in ten years. The last time it was done Georges Niang and Naz Long were still playing, and it was the last year of Fred Hoiberg's "Hoiball" era. Now TJ Otzelberger is 3-1 against the team out east, secured ISU's first road win of the season, and has his team in the pole position heading into Big 12 play. Women's basketball was not so fortunate on Wednesday night, as they allowed a tight game where they temporarily held an advantage to slip away in the fourth quarter. They let off the gas, and the team out east leaned in. There is no shortage of places where the Cyclones can improve before their next true test against UConn. Football needs to be discussed as well, even though Iowa State just went through one of the most heartbreaking and brain numbing losses we've seen from this school. We struggled mightily to tackle Cam Skattebo, and made it look like he was covered in butter. Our defense had no answers to Arizona State, and our offense got progressively worse on every drive until garbage time. They have a few weeks to make corrections before playing Miami in the Pop Tarts Bowl. The dream ended yesterday, so where does Iowa State go from here? - https://crowdnoisesportscom.wordpress.com/2024/12/08/the-dream-ended-yesterday-so-where-does-iowa-state-go-from-here/ Give the Cornfield Sports Pod a like and a follow Find us on twitter @CSportsPod Find Matt @SFMattISU Find Blake @blakeattack1846
