Iowa State enters key stretch of season

Iowa State coach Dan McCarney says the last three games will determine just how successful the ’99 season will be for the Cyclones. Iowa State visits Texas Tech this weekend in Big-12 action. He says when the season is over he wants to be proud of the team’s record, not just the fact that they’ve improved.McCarney says Tech is in the hunt for the South division title because they have a number of experienced players. McCarney says both teams have plenty on the line as both are 4-4 and need to win to keep moving toward a winning season and possible bowl berth. McCarney says the Cyclones must put the disappointment of last week behind them and be emotionally ready by game time.
