Did you know ISU first adopted the “Cyclones” moniker in Sept 1895 after the football team beat Northwestern 36-0. The headline in the Chicago Tribune the following day read “STRUCK BY A CYCLONE.” This 1895 football squad included ME students O.P. Woodburn and Clarence Lewis #tbt

...1934 contest against Iowa, where the Cyclones won 31-6, their first win over their in-state rivals in nearly two decades. Notice Marston Water Tower, the top of Marston Hall and the smokestack for a now-defunct engineering shop building in the background. #tbt #cyclones (2/2)
