The 2021 Big 12 Preseason Poll is out and your Iowa State Cyclones came in at second.
Big 12 media preseason poll:
— Brett McMurphy (@Brett_McMurphy) July 8, 2021
1-Oklahoma (35 1st place votes)
2-Iowa State (4)
3-Texas
4-Oklahoma State
5-TCU
6-West Virginia
7-Kansas State
8-Baylor
9-Texas Tech
10-Kansas
Amazingly, the Cyclones received a few first place votes. Whether that be a bitter Texas writer or a particularly excited Iowa State writer, Iowa State having some even tangentially-justifiable first place votes in the Big 12 preseason poll is incredible.
Big 12 Media Days is next week, and Breece Hall and Greg Eisworth will be in Arlington to represent Iowa State.

You’re probably impatient just like the rest of us, but stuff like this is one of the first road markers as we approach football season.
