It is way too early to be studying things like the RPI on a daily basis but considering yesterday was without question Iowa State’s best win of the season from the standpoint of metrics, I believe the following is notable.

After topping Ben Jacobson’s UNI Panthers 76-65 in Des Moines, the Cyclones have jumped into the RPI’s top 25 in essentially every outlet.

ESPN’s RPI had the Cyclones at No. 22 as of Sunday morning.

The site Real Time RPI jumped the Cyclones 16 spots from 38 to 22 following the win.

Nothing, however changed for Iowa State on the KenPom.com (subscription) metrics. The Cyclones are still projected to finish the season at 15-15 and 6-12 in the Big 12

Iowa State will play its final non-conference game on the season on Wednesday night at 6 vs. Maryland Eastern Shore.

Chris was hired as Cyclone Fanatic’s publisher in the fall of 2009. He is Iowa State football's postgame show host on the Cyclone Radio Network and can be heard daily from 4-7 on Des Moines' top-rated sports station, 1460 KXnO. Williams, a 2007 graduate of Iowa State’s Greenlee School of Journalism, is the former publisher of the old CycloneNation.com (Scout.com). He has also written for the Des Moines Register, the Ames Tribune, CycloneReport.com and is the former sports director at KMA Radio. When Williams isn’t working, you can usually find him doing something outdoors with his wife Ashley, daughter Camryn, and Golden Retriever Dierks. He enjoys golfing, boating, country music, the Minnesota Vikings, Atlanta Braves and is passionate about any and all motor sports so finding Williams at a local dirt track is very common.
