AMES, Iowa -- Some 63 hours after Matt Campbell earned his first Big 12 victory at Iowa State, his Ford Explorer roars into the dark parking lot of the Bergstrom Football Complex.Campbell hardly slows off the gas, driving a straight line to the parking spot closest to the staff entrance of this four-year-old building detached from the northwest corner of Jack Trice Stadium.It is 5:15 a.m.He bounds from the silver metallic SUV into the 32-degree, mid-November air, paying no attention to the brilliant full moon above. Ten minutes later, Campbell sits in his second-floor office, peering at film of the Texas Tech defense.The 36-year-old father of four, who coached for four-plus seasons at Toledo before the Cyclones tabbed him a year ago, is eager to shed the label of youngest coach in the Power 5.I get it, Campbell says, looking up from his desk and the practice schedule under construction on paper, but age is irrelevant. When I was at Toledo, for a while I was the youngest coach in all college football. You just hoped that somebody recognized you for the work we were doing, what you were building, what kind of coach and program you were.Iowa State recognized more than a youthful exuberance in Campbell, tasking him with one of the most daunting jobs in the sport. The Cyclones have enjoyed one winning season in the past decade; the last time they won more than seven games was in 2000.Campbells Iowa State tenure began with a loss to FCS program Northern Iowa and started 0-6 in Big 12 play, despite leading Texas, Baylor and Oklahoma State in the second half. Iowa State came from behind in the fourth quarter to win 31-24 last week at Kansas -- a milestone, for sure, despite an opponent that has lost 19 straight league games.It was great to see our resolve, Campbell says. I definitely think it did something positive in our program. And now, can you do it again?The Cyclones celebrated the win with a Sunday meal of steak and shrimp, cake and ice cream. After defeats this year, they ate hamburgers and hot dogs.On Tuesday, Campbell granted access to ESPN.com for a look at the inner workings of a program in transition. Clearly, a conference win only strengthened the Cyclones resolve to continue to improve -- and to do it as quickly as possible.This morning represents a late start for Campbell. Three days a week, he shows up at 4:30 to run and lift a few weights.I think it keeps you sane, he says.Its a 12-minute drive for Campbell from the home he and his wife, Erica, built last spring and summer north of the Iowa State campus. They moved from temporary housing in July, five months after the birth of their second son, Rocco. The Campbell girls are 8 and 6; the boys are 3 and 9 months.Usually, they all attend practice on Wednesday.Matt nearly missed the latest birth, flying into Toledo, still exhausted from a harried recruiting season, less than an hour before Erica gave birth.She is an audiologist but stays home, for now, while Matt works crazy hours.Campbell left the office after 10 on Monday night, feeling a bit sick. And the coachs stomach has not fully recovered on this morning. He drinks no coffee. For energy, Campbell mixes water with Spark, a powdered multivitamin additive advertised to enhance mental focus.Campbell is the first of the coaches to arrive.As he gets settled in the office, itll be seven hours until Campbell eats a meal. Hes a creature of habit, sending director of football operations Greg Brabenec -- Skip as hes known in the office -- almost daily to the nearby West Street Deli for a serving of chicken salad.The first week I got here, somebody told us about it, Campbell says, and thats been our go-to spot ever since.After workouts, Campbell cleans up in the locker room. His office is equipped with a shower, which he says he has never used, inside a spacious restroom that holds his carry-on suitcase and an ISU golf bag, still covered in plastic wrap.At 6:30 a.m., he ducks into an in-progress meeting. Offensive coordinator Tom Manning, a holdover from Toledo like most of the ISU staff, sits at the head of the table. He controls the tape -- dissecting the Texas Tech defense -- and the mood in the room, which is decidedly low-key.The lights are dim as Mannings mellow and acoustic mix of songs plays over a wall-mounted speaker. Hes more eclectic than Campbell, whose playlist gets plenty of time, too, especially at night; it spans Kenny Rogers, John Prine, Justin Bieber, the Zac Brown Band and Justin Timberlake.We go all over the spectrum, Campbell says.The offensive meeting includes graduate assistant Taylor Mouser and quality control associate Joe Houston. Passing game coordinator Jim Hofher enters before 7 a.m..The coaches trade banter as they watch tape.I got home yesterday and the Christmas tree was up, Manning says, and its got lights built in.Manning sounds genuinely surprised by this before turning his eyes back to the Red Raiders, who visit Ames on Saturday with just one win -- an overtime victory at TCU in Week 9 -- in their past six games.Soon, the Iowa State coaches watch tape of Ohio State. With deep Ohio roots, the ISU staff regularly studies the Buckeyes, who run a system on offense similar to what Campbell installed in Ames.The Cyclones target Ohio heavily in recruiting. Campbell grew up in Massillon, south of Cleveland. In particular, Campbell says, hes enthralled by the heritage of Ohio natives Urban Meyer and Bob Stoops, and Nick Saban, whose career began in the state.Theyre huge role models, Campbell says, guys who have such laser vision and focus to sustain success, to recruit consistently and then to develop their guys and demand that they play at a high level.Curtis Samuel flashes on the screen. No one on the Iowa State roster resembles the Ohio State back.Is he an Ohio guy? asks a coach in the room.No. Another coach suggests that Samuel, a four-star signee in 2014, came from Florida. Actually, hes from Brooklyn, New York.Campbell moves into a special-teams meeting at 7 a.m. He sits at the head of the table, with associate head coach and running game coordinator Louis Ayeni to his right. Bryan Gasser, who coaches receivers and special teams, runs the meeting. Linebackers coach Tyson Veidt is also here.The head coach stays mostly quiet, speaking up when the subject turns to weather. The forecast is more typical November for Saturday in Ames -- cold and windy. The more wind, the better for Iowa State, the coaches suggest.Just before 8 a.m., the entire staff convenes in the same room for their daily rundown. The meeting starts with a medical report. They discuss Tuesday practice before the conversation turns to recruiting.This weekend is huge, says Campbell, with several official visits planned. One of the scheduled visitors, announces a coach, attended Iowas upset win Saturday night over Michigan. No one responds to this.By Campbells left sits Veidt, who is handing scraps of paper to a recruiting assistant as the coaches watch film of prospects under consideration for scholarship offers. Iowa State has accepted approximately 20 commitments for its 2017 class, so space is limited.They view film of a tenacious offensive lineman. Conversation ensues about his reputed height -- and the height of a basketball hoop on which Campbell saw the prospect dunk on video. It might have been 8 feet, suggests one coach.The point there, Campbell says after the staff meeting, is for everybody in that room to know exactly what were looking for.Before 9 a.m., Campbell exits his third meeting of the day. He stops quickly in his office before the next session to talk more offensive strategy.His stomach is feeling better. Chicken salad awaits in three hours.Another long day beckons.

This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season. Penny Hardaway Jersey . PAUL, Minn. CINCINNATI -- Four touchdown passes, more than 300 yards passing, two clutch touchdown drives in the fourth quarter.Trevor Siemian played every bit like Peyton Manning in his first road start.In some ways, even better.Siemian was nearly perfect as he rallied the Denver Broncos to a 29-17 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday, leading a pair of fourth-quarter touchdown drives with veteran aplomb.The defending Super Bowl champions biggest offseason challenge was replacing their famous quarterback, and it looks as if they made the right choice. Theyre 3-0 under Siemian, who took over after Manning retired and Brock Osweiler went to Houston.Siemian became the first Bronco to throw for four touchdowns since Manning in 2014 against the Dolphins. No NFL quarterback had thrown for 300 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions in their road debut, according to ESPN Stats and Info.Obviously going in, nobody really knew about him, said Emmanuel Sanders, who caught the first two touchdowns. Now everybodys starting to talk about him. Hes always calm, cool and collected, even in the fourth quarter. You should have seen the way he took command in the huddle.Trailing at the start of the fourth quarter, Siemian completed 11 of 12 passes while rallying the Broncos to those fourth-quarter touchdowns. He finished 23 of 35 for 312 yards and a passer rating of 132.1.Im still learning a lot, Siemian said. There are a couple of plays Id like to do over again.Siemian had a 41-yard touchdown pass to Sanders to get it started, and stood in under a heavy rush and connected with Demaryius Thomas on a 55-yard score with 4:23 left to clinch it. Sanders finished with nine catches for 117 yards.The Bengals got their dormant running game going, but were still out of sync as they fell to 1-2 for the first time in five years. Jeremy Hill ran for a pair of touchdowns and 97 yards -- huge strides for Cincinnatis pass-heavy offense -- but Andy Dalton couldnt do much after the Bengals fell behind.Were still trying to find ourselves, said receiver A.J. Green, who had eight catches for 77 yards but dropped a pivotal third-down pass. Weve got to be more consistent.INJURIESBroncos safety T.J. Wardd hurt his neck late in the first quarter but returned.ddddddddddddThe Broncos were already missing safety Justin Simmons. ... Bengals kicker Mike Nugent suffered a shoulder injury while helping to make a tackle during a kickoff return in the second quarter but later made a field goal.UP AND RUNNING ... BRIEFLYAfter two games of getting virtually nothing out of their running game, the Bengals made it a point of emphasis and got immediate results. Hill, who had a total of 53 yards in the first two games, broke off a 50-yard run on Cincinnatis opening possession -- his longest run since 2014. He capped the drive with a 3-yard TD run, giving the Bengals a season high in rushing after one series. Denver clamped down the rest of the way.NOT-SO-SWEET HOMEThe Bengals are 6-4 in their past nine games at Paul Brown Stadium, including a first-round playoff loss to Pittsburgh.ANTHEMWard raised his right fist during the anthem, the first time hes made such a gesture. Brandon Marshall again went to his knee behind the front line of players.LINE CHANGEThe Broncos switched their offensive line, with Ty Sambrailo starting at right tackle in place of Donald Stephenson, who has a strained calf. Sambrailo got called for holding late in the first half, but Siemian had enough time for his big game. He was sacked only twice.AGGIE VS AGGIEBengals right tackle Cedric Ogbuehi got to block Von Miller, who was a teammate at Texas A&M for one season. In his third NFL start, Ogbuehi -- a first-round pick last season -- got caught holding the Super Bowl MVP once and gave up one of Denvers four sacks.UP NEXTThe Broncos play at Tampa Bay next Sunday.The Bengals have a quick turnaround, getting ready to host the Dolphins on Thursday night.THEY SAID ITBroncos: Thats what weve been waiting for man. Thats a huge step forward for our team to do that on the road against a playoff team. -- cornerback Chris Harris Jr.Bengals: Its still early. Theres a lot to be accomplished. -- Andy Dalton.---Online: AP NFL website www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Cheap NFL Womens Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Wholesale NFL Womens Jerseys Cheap Jerseys China Wholesale NFL Jerseys Jerseys NFL China Wholesale Jerseys Free Shipping ' ' '
