The Iowa State Cyclones arrived in San Antonio on Sunday as preparations continue for Friday’s Alamo Bowl against 13th ranked Washington State. The 24th ranked Cyclones are expected to bring a large fan following with them.

“We are really fortunate to have one of the best fan bases in college athletics” said Iowa State coach Matt Campbell. “There has been a great buzz around Ames and I know our fans are excited to come down here.”

Campbell wants the players to enjoy the bowl activities while remaining focused on the game. Iowa State is 8-4 and with a victory would equal a school record for wins in a season.

“That’s when you lean on your leadership”, added Campbell. “This group has a chance to tell a real powerful story and we look forward to that opportunity.”

Washington State is 10-2.
