Blooblod 25 Iowa State was one of the best stories of 2017. After a seemingly infinite existence of being locked in the cellar of the Big 12 and being condemned to an eternity of ineptitude despite surprisingly loyal and hardcore fans, Matt Campbell finally brought the Cyclones out into the light. On October 7th, Iowa State shocked the college football world when they upset #3 Oklahoma IN Norman. Then, three weeks later, they did it again when they upset #4 TCU. Matt Campbell has brought an optimism back to Ames that hasn't been there in, well, maybe forever. QB Kyle Kempt is back with a  sixth  year of eligibility, and while Allen Lazard is gone look for Hakeem Butler to fill in his footsteps. The defense is solid but unspectacular at every level. The Cyclones return productive LB duo  Marcel Spears Jr. and Willie Harvey, and on the back end Bryan Peavy (who has been one of my personal favorites since he was a freshman) will have his eyes on the Thorpe Award. My Cyclones record prediction: 8-4. I don't have Iowa State pulling off any Earth-shattering upsets this year, but look for the Cyclones to give the top teams in the Big 12 a run for their money.
