STILLWATER - Oklahoma State travels to Ames to battle Iowa State Saturday. The Cowboys hold a 26-18-3 advantage all-time over the Cyclones, but trail ISU, 12-11-1 in Ames. Mike Gundy is 3-2 all-time against Iowa State, while Paul Rhoads is 1-2 in his three outings against the Cowboys.
An Oklahoma State Win Would...
• Be the Cowboys' fifth in their last seven meetings with the Cyclones.
• Be the Cowboys' sixth of the year, making OSU bowl-eligible for the eighth consecutive year - a school record.
• Improve the Cowboys to 6-1 on the year, marking the fifth time in the last six seasons that OSU has started the season with a 6-1 record or better through its first seven games. Prior to Mike Gundy taking the head coaching position at OSU, the Cowboys had only seven 6-1 starts between 1945 and 2005.
• Improve the Cowboys to 29-4 in their last 33 games against unranked opponents.
Notable Streaks Entering the Iowa State Game

• OSU has at least one touchdown drive of faster than two minutes in each of its last 28 games and in 44 of its last 45 contests.
