Iowa State quarterback Rocco Becht says the Cyclones have a lot to play for as they practice for the Pop Tarts Bowl. The 18th ranked Cyclones are 10-3 after falling to Arizona State in the Big 12 Championship game and will play 13th ranked Miami in the December 28th game in Orlando.

Becht says a victory would provide the program momentum heading into the off-season.

Cyclone safety Beau Freyler says the Cyclones are excited to have this opportunity.

Both teams just missed a spot in the college football playoffs. Miami is 10-2.
