The 2024 Iowa State Cyclones football team represented Iowa State University as a member of Big 12 Conference during the 2024 NCAA Division I FBS football season. Led by ninth-year head coach Matt Campbell, the Cyclones compiled an overall record of 11–3 with a mark of 7–2 in conference play, placing in a four-way tie for first in the Big 12 with Arizona State, BYU, and Colorado. Iowa State advanced to the Big 12 Championship Game, where the Cyclones lost to Arizona State. Despite coming short against the Sun Devils, the Cyclones upset the No. 13 Miami Hurricanes in the Pop-Tarts Bowl, 42–41, garnering the first 11-win season in program history. The team played home games at Jack Trice Stadium in Ames, Iowa. Following a comeback 38–35 win against UCF on October 19, the Cyclones achieved their best start since 1938, and a 4–0 start in Big 12 play. With the win against Kansas State in the annual Farmageddon game on November 30, the Cyclones clinched their first ever ten-win season; a win by BYU later that night gave Iowa State the right to play Arizona State in the Big 12 Championship Game, the Cyclones' first appearance in the conference game title since 2020.
