Surrender cobras out in full force in Ames after flurry of Iowa State turnovers
Iowa State was favored in the Cy-Hawk matchup.
No, seriously. The Cyclones closed as 4.5-point favorites over Iowa Saturday afternoon.
Let’s just say they won’t cover that spread.
Iowa rode a huge third quarter to a 24-10 lead entering the final 15 minutes. The Hawkeyes forced 4 touchdowns in the first 3 quarters, including 3 in the third quarter. One of those was a scoop-and-score from Iowa State’s own 6-yard line.
We also got further confirmation that college football is officially back. It’s been way too long since we’ve seen “surrender cobras” in the stands — and they were in full force at Jack Trice Stadium Saturday afternoon.
Been that type of day for the Cyclones.

We’ll see if Iowa can continue to roll as it holds a 27-10 lead with 11:25 remaining. If the Hawkeyes can hold on, it’ll make 6 straight wins over the Cyclones, which would be a new Cy-Hawk record winning streak.
