Iowa State football checks in at 14th in the new US LBM Coaches Poll , released Sunday, Sept. 7. The Cyclones were previously ranked 18th.

The Cyclones improved to 3-0 on the season with a tightly contested 16-13 rivalry win over Iowa. For the second consecutive year, kicker Kyle Konrardy delivered a game-winning 54-yard field goal to bury the Hawkeyes. Iowa State football beat Iowa in Ames for the first time since 2011.
