Seneca was so much better then Meyer. Meyer only had 1 good year (sophomore year). After that he was average. Seneca is 1 of the best QB that i have ever seen when he roles out and has to throw across his body.
That said, i would take Sage over Seneca.

I know these two players were only at ISU for a short period of time, but what about Bret Oberg for QB and Steve Lester as a wide receiver? Seriously, check out Lester's stats -- 200 in receiving yards against Oklahoma for example.
And I think Oberg's passing stats were pretty good considering he was only there two years.
Also, wasn't David Archer a pretty good QB as well? And Tom Randall as a lineman. Geary Murdoch was a first team all-Big Eight lineman. Mike Strachan was a very good running back -- rushed for over 1,200 yards against
And he was way overused and was pretty lazy in practice, but Dwayne Crutchfield was a pretty decent running back.
Blaise Bryant had a great junior year and then the injury in the second game against Minnesota his senior year slowed him down.
Mike Stensrud as a defensive tackle along with Tom Boskey. Keith Schroeder was a first team all-Big 8 linebacker.
Walter Grant was a heck of a quarterback, and Ike Harris was a fine receiver.
There are a lot of ISU All-Americans who haven't even been mentioned.

Darren Davis RB
And for sentimental or wild card performer you have to go with "Marvelous" Marv Seiler.
I also believe Ty Stewart was the best kicker for ISU of all time, I mean the guy was automatic and our only offense for a couple of years. He's also a helluva golfer and a great guy to play 18 at Veenker with.
Also another question, what offense are we running? Single-Wing, Wing T, Wishbone, Triple Option, Spread, Pro-Style, etc. Iowa State has employed I believe almost every style of of offensive scheme over the years.

My pick for PK is Tom Goedgen. I believe he missed one PAT his entire career at ISU. Coach has to be Earl Bruce.

Brett Who?
QBs - Sage, Seneca, David Archer, George Amundson (also a running back at ISU and the pros), Tim Van Galder, Dean Carlson,
TE - Keith Krepfle, Pat Curran, Al Dixon, Mike Busch, Dan Johnson, Mike Banks
A good list of ISU NFL players is here http://www.pro-football-reference.com/colleges/iowast/drafted.htm
However that list does miss players like DB Larry Crawford who was a CFL all star in 83, 84, 86, 87.
