NOVEMBER SECOND, 2024. THAT’S THE DATE. IOWA STATE FANS ARE HOPING WOULD GO DOWN AS THE ONE WHERE THE CYCLONES IMPROVE TO EIGHT ZERO FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER. THE BEST START IN THE HISTORY OF CYCLONE FOOTBALL. HOSTING TEXAS TECH. A TEAM ENTERING THE GAME ALLOWED 36 POINTS PER GAME, 123RD IN THE COUNTRY, AND IOWA STATE’S OFFENSE JUST DIDN’T TAKE ADVANTAGE. TEXAS TECH WOULD STRIKE FIRST IN THIS GAME OPENING DRIVE. THEY MARCHED DOWN THE FIELD 72 YARDS, CAPPED OFF HERE. BARON MORTON TO JOSH KELLY, 35 YARDS. TEN SIX IN THE FINAL MINUTE OF THE SECOND QUARTER. BARON MORTON PICKED OFF BY MYLES PURCHASE. THAT’S HIS FIRST INTERCEPTION OF THE DAY. MAYBE SWINGING SOME MOMENTUM TO IOWA STATE BEFORE THE HALF AND THE CYCLONES DO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE TURNOVER. BENNETT ESCAPES PRESSURE LOOKING LEFT. GREAT BALL TO JADEN HIGGINS. BENNETT NOW WITH A TOUCHDOWN IN 12 STRAIGHT GAMES, TYING BROCK PURDY FOR THE ALL TIME RECORD. CYCLONES 1310 HEADING INTO THE HALF. SECOND HALF. HERE COMES TEXAS TECH AGAIN MORTON TO JOSH KELLY FIGHTING OFF THE PASS INTERFERENCE FROM JEREMIAH COOPER IN 1713. IT WOULD BE 1716 WITH TWO MINUTES TO GO THOUGH. IN THE FOURTH IOWA STATE AGAIN. AND IT’S CARSON BROWN, THE DOWLING CATHOLIC GRAD. BIG BUCKS AND IOWA STATE FANS THINK WE’RE GOING TO ESCAPE AGAIN. TEXAS TECH SAYS NOT THIS TIME. WITH 19 SECONDS TO GO, A 70 YARD DRIVE CAPPED OFF TAJ BROOKS, THE KEEPER, AND THE CYCLONES STUN 2322. THE FINAL, THE PERFECT SEASON IS GONE. IOWA STATE DROPS IT. LET’S GO TO SCOTT REISTER WITH MORE. TO KEEP THE PERFECT SEASON GOING. IOWA STATE DIDN’T HAVE TO NECESSARILY PLAY PERFECT TODAY, BUT THEY HAD TO PLAY MUCH BETTER THAN THAT AGAINST A QUALITY TEXAS TECH TEAM. A LOT OF MISTAKES AND AFTERWARDS, COACH MATT CAMPBELL WAS QUICK TO POINT OUT THIS WAS NOT THEIR BEST DAY. IT’S DISAPPOINTING. YOU KNOW, YOU DON’T WANT TO PLAY THAT WAY, ESPECIALLY TO START NOVEMBER AND AND YOU KNOW, WE DID WE OWN IT AND WE LIVE WITH IT. WE GROW FROM IT. AND HOPEFULLY WE’VE GOT ENOUGH, YOU KNOW, ENOUGH COURAGE ABOUT OURSELVES TO TO CORRECT IT AND MOVE OURSELVES FORWARD. BUT I THOUGHT OUR KIDS PLAYED REALLY HARD. BUT YOU’RE RIGHT. IT’S THE DETAIL THAT THAT COST US THE FOOTBALL GAME. YOU KNOW, A LOT OF PENALTIES TODAY, MORE THAN WE’VE EVER HAD. AND YOU KNOW THIS SEASON. AND THAT HURT US A LOT. AND SO I THINK EVERYBODY JUST NEEDS TO YOU KNOW, EVERYBODY NEEDS TO LOOK THEMSELVES IN THE MIRROR. THE TEAM COMMITTED AN UNCHARACTERISTIC EIGHT PENALTIES. THE OFFENSE FAILED TO SCORE CONSISTENTLY AGAINST THE BIG 12. WORST DEFENSE IN THAT IOWA STATE DEFENSE, THE BEST IN THE BIG 12 ALLOWED TEXAS TECH TO MARCH DOWN AND WIN THE GAME, AND THE FINAL SECONDS IN FRONT OF THE HOME CROWD. IT IS, YOU KNOW, YOU’RE GOING TO LOSE FOOTBALL GAMES, AND THAT’S PART OF THAT’S PART OF THE JOURNEY. BUT YOU KNOW HOW YOU RESPOND IS NO DIFFERENT THAN HOW YOU RESPOND WHEN YOU WIN. AND YOU BETTER BELIEVE THE GUYS IN THAT BUILDING WILL DO EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO RIGHT THE SHIP. STILL, A LOT OF FOOTBALL LEFT FOUR GAMES TO GO, STARTING WITH SATURDAY’S GAME AT ARROWHEAD AGAINST KU A
