Iowa State’s outlier drought should hit 46 years in 2019. Here’s how long it’s been for every team in FBS, plus a bunch of lower-level schools that have joined the fray.

Almost every major college football program has had at least one first-round pick. But not all of them have, and some have gotten jumped in the queue over the years by smaller schools that play at lower levels. One Power 5 school in particular has had a rough go of it.

Iowa State’s sole first round pick was in 1973, when the Houston Oilers took running back George Amundson 14th overall. Every other power conference team has had a first-rounder more recently than that, as have a couple dozen mid-majors and FCS teams. Indiana’s last was in 1994, giving the Hoosiers the longest Power 5 drought after ISU.

How long’s it been for everybody else? Let’s go through all of FBS and beyond, with help from the draft search engine at Sports Reference.

And then there are the non-FBS teams

I’m going to make this somewhat quick and just list every non-FBS program to produce a first-rounder since 1974, the first draft of Iowa State’s drought:

Jackson State (hello, Walter Payton), Louisiana Tech when it wasn’t FBS, Montana State, Florida A&M, Tennessee State, Langston, Texas A&M-Kingsville, South Dakota State, Grambling State, Morris Brown, Morhead State, Alcorn State (‘sup, Steve McNair), Kentucky State, UC Davis, McNeese State, Mississippi Valley State (howdy, Jerry Rice), Queens, Eastern Kentucky, Northwestern State, Northern Arizona, Liberty, Wake Technical Community College, South Carolina State, Fort Valley State, Central State, North Carolina A&T, Kutztown, Saginaw Valley State, Delaware, and North Dakota State, with a few of those having multiple picks.

Eventually, the Cyclones will get back in front of those schools. Maybe.
