September 3 North Dakota State
September 12 No. 22 Iowa
September 19 at Kent State
September 26 Army
October 3 Kansas State
October 10 at No. 25 Kansas
October 17 Baylor
October 24 at No. 24 Nebraska
October 31 at Texas A&M
November 7 No. 9 Oklahoma State
November 14 Colorado
November 21 at Missouri

If ISU can beat rival Iowa "at home", then they have a legit shot at being 5-0 to start the season. They also play A&M and have Baylor and Colorado home. There is a "shot" that if they have a decent season at all that Iowa State could finish 6-6 and "maybe" make a bowl game. Wow. The 12th best team in the Big 12 has a shot to make a bowl game. I wonder how many conferences could even attempt to say that.

SEC! SEC! SEC!

[stoopified]

The Cyclones might as well go bowling its not like they will have anything else to do after November. :D

No.

[Jacie]

If not this year when? Would they have a better chance when the get OU and sa*et in their South Division schedule rotation?

[VA Sooner]

No. Missouri, Nebraska, and Iowa still have them this year. Rebuilding...

[JLEW1818]

Absolutely not

2017? 2020? 2112?

[sooner59]

Yeah, just to clear it up, I dont thing they will. I think they will be be 4-8 this year. But there is a shot in the dark that they make it. The question is....will ISU finish with a similar or better season than the 12th team in the SEC?

[badger]

Iowa State's seen too much transition lately. Lack of stability, combined with a lackluster team... blah blah blah... no bowl.

Next question: Will Colorado have 10 wins (and no excuses)???

IMHO, I see at least two losses in there... so maybe with a bowl and another Big 12 championship over Texas? :D

Let's do a real quick breakdown...

1. they have a new coach.
2. Their talent pool is really weak.
3. They are Iowa State.

September 3 North Dakota State W
September 12 No. 22 Iowa L
September 19 at Kent State W
September 26 Army L
October 3 Kansas State L
October 10 at No. 25 Kansas L
October 17 Baylor L
October 24 at No. 24 Nebraska L
October 31 at Texas A&M L
November 7 No. 9 Oklahoma State L
November 14 Colorado L
November 21 at Missouri L

After looking at their schedule, they will be hard pressed getting 3 wins on the year.

There is no chance for ISU to go to a bowl game.....actually NDSU will surprise them just like they did to the Gophers two year ago!

[boomersooner28]

They may be going bowling at Ames Lanes, or whatever the local bowling alley is called, but thats about the only place.

[soonerfan28]

They look pretty foolish for letting Dan McCarney go. It least that dude had them in bowl games.

[soonersam]

I'll say maybe!!! Because I've seen crazier things happen!! Like when ND played in a BCS game with 4 losses!!
