Cyclones hoping for strong start in Big 12 play
AMES (AP) — For the second year in a row, Iowa State enters Big 12 play with a perfect record, a week of rest and a hopeful buzz surrounding the program.
The Cyclones would sure like to avoid blowing that momentum like they did in 2011.
Iowa State (3-0) opens conference play on Saturday against Texas Tech (3-0) fully aware of what transpired last fall. The Cyclones started the Big 12 at home against Texas after a bye and got blown out 37-14, the first of four straight losses that nearly ruined their season.
