Big Eight Farewell: Iowa State
The series history between Iowa State and Nebraska is decidedly one-sided: Nebraska 86, Iowa State 17, with two ties. That shouldn't be a surprise to fans of either program, but that doesn't mean that the Cyclones have been completely unsuccessful on the gridiron. The Cyclones shared two conference co-championships dating back 99 years to 1911 and 1912 in the Missouri Valley Conference with the Huskers. And when the Huskers were suffering through the Bill Callahan error, Iowa State shared the Big XII North title with Colorado in 2004.
In 1971, Iowa State was expected to finish in last place, but instead went 8-4. That's especially noteworthy considering that was the year Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Colorado finished as the top three teams in the nation. That 8-4 record was good enough to earn a Sun Bowl bid, where Johnny Majors' team lost 33-15 to LSU. The next season, the Cyclones finished the season in the Liberty Bowl, losing 31-30 to Georgia Tech. The Cyclones scored with 1:36 left in the game to pull within one point, but the Cyclones two-point conversion fell short. After taking Iowa State to two straight bowl games, Majors left to take the head coaching job at Pitt.
Under Earle Bruce, the Cyclones would go 4-7 the next three seasons before going 8-3 in 1976. That season, the Cyclones upset Nebraska 37-28 and ended the season ranked #18 despite not receiving a bowl invitation. In 1977, Iowa State beat Nebraska 24-21 in Lincoln, and earned a Peach Bowl bid, losing 24-14 to North Carolina State. In 1978, the Huskers broke the two game losing streak by shutting out Iowa State 23-0 in Ames. The Cyclones did earn a bid to the Hall of Fame Bowl, where they lost to Texas A&M 28-12. After three straight eight win seasons in Ames, Bruce left Ames for Ohio State, his alma mater.
The next twenty years or so were forgettable for the Cyclones under Jim Criner and Jim Walden. Some Iowa State fans thought they finally could get rid of Walden after the 1992 season, only to have the Cyclones pull off a stunning 19-10 upset of Nebraska . Iowa State's reward for the upset? Two additional years of futility under Walden. Enter Dan McCarney, who wasn't much better initially, despite having all-American running back Troy Davis top the 2000-yard mark in two seasons, earning him an invitation to the Heisman Trophy Award ceremony.
Things started to turn around for Iowa State under McCarney in the late 1990's. The Cyclones broke a 15 year losing streak to cross-state rival Iowa in 1998, and promptly began a five year winning streak against the Hawkeyes. In 2000, the Cyclones went 9-3 and beat Pitt 37-29 in the Insight Bowl to finish the season ranked #23 in the coaches poll and #25 in the AP poll. Cyclone fans flocked to Phoenix for the game, and allegedly drained the microbrewery at BankOne Ballpark, where the game was played. In 2001, the Cyclones finished 7-5, losing 14-13 to Alabama in the Independence Bowl. The finish was controversial because television replays indicated that a game-winning field goal attempt by Tony Yelk should have counted after going over the goal posts.
