Iowa State announced Wednesday that head coach Matt Campbell signed a new eight-year contract that will run through 2032.

"Coach Campbell has built a special football program at Iowa State; one that all Cyclone fans can take great pride in," school president President Dr. Wendy Wintersteen in a statement.

"My family and I are extremely grateful for the faith and commitment shown to our program by our president, Dr. Wintersteen, and our athletics director, Jamie Pollard," Campbell said. "It is an honor to be associated with a great university and community, and I am thankful to work with great leaders, administrators and student-athletes."

Campbell led the Cyclones to a turnaround this season after a 7-6 campaign in 2023. Iowa State won its first seven games of the season and finished the year in a four-way tie for first place in the Big 12. The Cyclones fell to Arizona State in the Big 12 title game last weekend.

The 45-year-old coach owns a 63-51 record since his first season at Iowa State in 2016. He surpassed Dan McCarney as the program's all-time wins leader following the team's victory against Houston.

The Cyclones (10-3) will conclude their season against Miami in the Pop Tarts Bowl on Dec. 28.
