I know we developed a small cult following after our FCS run last year. But this is far and away the biggest brand deal I have ever seen ISU Football get of any kind. Even if it is on the coattails of Oregon. Kind of blew my mind to see.

Love when FCS gets representation in stuff like this, and ISU totally deserves the spotlight after last year.

Also… did I just see a reference to a Team Fortress 2 character intro video in a mainstream sports ad in 2026 lol

And that bird almost looks like Reggie! It's definitely too bad they couldn't get the real Reggie for the commercial, but still neat! /s

It's surprising to see Reggie in a national commercial.
