After starting the season 5-0 and looking well on their way to a repeat berth in the Big 12 championship game, Iowa State has been in a funk, losing three straight ahead of this weekend's rematch with Arizona State.
While the Cyclones are missing two big pieces of last season's success in Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel, second-year offensive coordinator Taylor Mouser still leads a dangerous offensive attack that runs through redshirt junior quarterback Rocco Becht.
Under Mouser's leadership, the Cyclones have employed primarily a spread offensive scheme, but with the flexibility of creating multiple looks for defenses to prepare for on every play.
