After going years without being ranked in the AP poll, Iowa State is now ranked for consecutive weeks. This week the Cyclones check in at #14 in the AP poll after the victory over TCU on Saturday. They are also ranked #16 in the Coaches poll.
Iowa State rises up to No. 14 in the latest Associated Press poll. Huge jump. Had been at No. 25. #Cyclones
