Defensive Player to Watch: Braxton Lewis
Ben Queen-USA TODAY SportsIowa State was without three of their best defenders this past Saturday in JaQuan Bailey and Greg Eisworth didn’t play at all, and O’Rien Vance left with a concussion in the first half, but didn’t miss a beat on the way to allowing less than 50 yards of offense in the second half.
Zach Peterson, Bobby McMillen III, Jake Hummel, and Braxton Lewis all stepped up in huge ways and didn’t show any signs of a drop off.
Crazy enough, I was down to those three players when I was deciding who my player to watch was this week, and I decided on Lewis because of what his role will probably look like.
