No Surprises: No. 17 Baylor football awaits Iowa State, similar environment

By Michael Haag | Sports Editor

Following a bounce-back weekend from the comfort of McLane Stadium, No. 17 Baylor football now hits the road for the start of conference play, its first opponent being Iowa State. The first test away from home for the Bears didn’t go their way, as they fell 26-20 to BYU in a hostile Provo, Utah environment.

The crowd won’t be any friendlier this week, thanks to the Cyclones (3-0) playing host for an 11 a.m. kickoff Saturday on ESPN2. It’ll be another packed venue for Baylor (2-1), who’s been tested before and now goes into another tough environment.
