The 2024 season is approaching its final stretch, and every game of the remaining Big 12 schedule is pivotal. Even for the teams that are out of the Big 12 race, the games are important because time is running out to get to bowl eligibility.
We’ve got a matchup between teams in both boats as Cincinnati (5-4) gets set to travel to Iowa State (7-2), losers of two straight.
Here’s how you can catch the game and how it is expected to play out.

Cincinnati vs. Iowa State: Prediction and Projections
A few weeks ago, Cincinnati was 5-2 and looking like a darkhorse Big 12 contender, while Iowa State was a perfect 7-0 and looked destined for a trip to Arlington. Fast forward to today and both teams carry a two-game losing streak into this contest, and someone’s got to lose their third in a row. Iowa State’s defense has been torched a couple of times in the last few weeks, and Cincinnati quarterback Brendan Sorsby is capable of doing it again. However, this feels like a must-win game for Matt Campbell’s group, which I feel is the better football team despite their flaws.
