-Iowa State wasn’t too impressive in their win over FCS North Dakota last week; class jump
-offense won’t have much success moving the ball; projected to run for less than 50 yards
-Cyclones defense will be on the field for most of this game; expect them to wear down late

-Iowa cruised to an easy 40-point win over an inferior FCS opponent; momentum carries over
-offense really struggled to score points last season, but they scored 40 in Game 1; good sign
-Hawkeyes defense will be a stingy unit once again in 2024; get another terrific matchup here
