"The past week has been up and down for Iowa State fans. The men's hoops team beat top-ranked Purdue on Saturday and replaced the Boilermakers as a 1-seed as a result. But longtime football coach Matt Campbell also left for Penn State, and the university faces a hefty fine from the Big 12 for the Cyclones declining to play in a bowl game."
"By Iowa State's count, this is the 57th meeting between the programs -- the 56th in Iowa's record book. The discrepancy is Feb. 23, 1974, a 62-49 Iowa victory at Iowa State. The Cyclones, who officially began women's basketball as a varsity program in 1973-74, count that game as the teams' first meeting. Iowa, which went varsity in 1974-75, doesn't count it. (Although since the Hawkeyes won, maybe it should.)"
The past week has been up and down for Iowa State fans. The men's hoops team beat top-ranked Purdue on Saturday and replaced the Boilermakers as a 1-seed as a result. Longtime football coach Matt Campbell left for Penn State, and the university faces a hefty fine from the Big 12 for the Cyclones declining to play in a bowl game. The women's teams meet Wednesday at Hilton Coliseum for the Cy-Hawk Series/Jimmy V Classic. Both teams are in the top 10 of the ESPN Power Rankings and are No. 3 seeds in Charlie Creme's Bracketology. Iowa has dominated 8-2 the past decade, and both teams are playing well now.
