The 1944 Iowa State Cyclones football team represented Iowa State University during the 1944 college football season. Mike Michalske, who was later inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, was in his third season as the team's head coach. After mediocre seasons in 1942 and 1943, Michalske led Iowa State in 1944 to a 6–1–1 record (3–1–1 in Big Six Conference) and a second-place finish in the conference. The team shut out Kansas (25–0) and Kansas State (14–0), ran up 288 rushing yards in a 19–6 victory over Nebraska, and suffered its sole loss to Oklahoma.[1]
