Jack Trice Stadium stands as a symbolic tribute, named after Iowa State's first African-American athlete. Its capacity of 61,500 makes it an iconic venue for Cyclones' home games.

Iowa State engages in historic rivalries with Iowa (Cy-Hawk Trophy), Kansas State, and Missouri. These contests have shaped the team's competitive history over the years.

Matt Campbell serves as the head coach. He transitioned from coaching roles at Toledo and has significantly elevated the team since joining in 2016.

The team's legacy includes achievements like two conference titles in 1911 and 1912 and the tragic yet significant tale of Jack Trice, the first African-American player at Iowa State.

The Cyclones faced tough matches against Iowa, Ohio, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Texas, resulting in pivotal moments that tested the team's resilience throughout the season.
