Iowa State coach Dan McCarney says his players are aware of what is on the line this Saturday when the Cyclones close out the regular season against Connecticut. A victory would close out Iowa State’s first perfect season at home in 85-years and help the Cyclones get to a better bowl. Despite four losses in their last five games McCarney says the attitude remains positive. He says they’re playing for an 8th regular season win and a 9th win in the bowl game, and they’re excited about it.U-Conn is 5-6 on the season but McCarney says the Huskies are finishing the season on a roll, scoring lots of points recently. McCarney says the Huskies 38-0 win over Navy last week is proof of how well this team is playing.
