Oklahoma State (Home - Friday Night)
Iowa State's second signature win fo 2011 (first being A&M) comes under the Friday Night lights after a bye week at home on national tv. The 10-0 Cowboys are staring down the barrel of a possible national title and looking ahead to their next game, in-state rivalry match-up against #1 Oklahoma.

Iowa State, feeling like an elite team coming off a big upset of #3 Oklahoma State on national TV, get humiliated at Memorial Stadium by the #1 Sooners.
ISU 7-4
Kansas State (Bill Snyder Stadium)
The 3-8 Wildcats are playing for pride, which on December 3 they don't have much to speak of. They haven't won a game since their showdown with Kansas on Oct 22, and haven't been competitive in any of their games. Their spirit is broken and they have already cleaned out their lockers prior to the game. ISU wins easily as the Cyclones are playing for a chance at a good bowl destination.
