Including Week 6 games, Iowa St is among five P4 schools to play three ranked opponents in its first six games. Cyclones are joined by South Carolina, Arkansas, Ole Miss & Kentucky, but only Iowa St, S. Carolina & Ark. can claim all three opponents still in this week's poll.

LSU was supposedly great because they blew out Clemson. That's the same Clemson who is 64th in FPI efficiency with the 109th ranked offense in college football. By the transitive property, Ole Miss was supposedly great because they beat LSU at home. Florida was supposedly great because they handily beat Ole Miss (42nd in FPI Efficiency) at home, and Florida got talked about as a likely playoff team by a bunch of pundits. Missouri will now get sunshine-pumped in the polls because they blew out Florida at home - the same Florida that is 77th in FPI defensive efficiency. (By the way - Florida's chances of making the playoff are now lower than Nebraska or Northwestern. I have a sneaking suspicion that won't be brought up by very many people) Alabama's offensive dominance has been racked up against the 30th, 35th, 44th, 82nd, and 91st rated defenses. Kentucky's two SEC wins are by a total of 11 points against the 40th and 57th teams in FPI efficiency. Baylor beat Arizona State on the road by a bigger margin than Texas A&M beat Arizona State at home. Nobody launders overrated wins into undeserved AP votes quite like the SEC.

What do Iowa State RB Aiden Flora and Heisman Trophy winner Vince Young have in common? After Saturday, they are the only players in Big 12 history with 2 pass TD, 2 rush TD and 200 rush yards in the same game after Flora did it against West Virginia. Oh and Flora scored the game-winning TD with 1:57 to go in the Cyclones 45-42 win 🌪️

When President David Cook was officially installed as Iowa State University's 17th president this week, he outlined many of the college's numerous accomplishments and also spoke to several priorities for the university as we look to the future. In doing so, he specifically mentioned the importance of collegiate sports. We wholeheartedly congratulate Dr. Cook on his installation as President of Iowa State University! President David and Dr. Katie Cook, welcome home to Ames & Iowa State! @CycloneFB @CycloneATH
