In Iowa State football kicker Kyle Konrardy’s case, “the spoils” are 54 boxes of Pop-Tarts. On Tuesday, the Football Writers Association of America named the redshirt freshman’s last-minute 54-yard kick to beat Iowa the Pop-Tarts “Crazy Good” Play of the Week.
As a prize for Konrardy, the Pop-Tarts Bowl, which annually features a team from the Big 12 taking on a team from the ACC, sent Konrardy plenty of pastries to keep him and his teammates fueled throughout the upcoming bye week.
The Cyclones (2-0) also changed their profile picture on X. Instead of a celebration shot from the team’s Cy-Hawk win over its biggest rival, they opted for something more subtle. Now, whenever Iowa State football posts something, followers are greeted with a photo of Konrardy staring at the camera, holding about 13 boxes of pop tarts.
