Onto the middle season for the 2016 Cyclone football squad. The Big 12 at its finest is on display as Iowa State plays Baylor, OSU, Texas, and Kansas State. The first season within the season saw ISU struggling to find an identity before breaking through against a lesser opponent. The question for Season 2 is whether that formula will continue on and result in at least one upset victory.
The answer is — close, but no cigar.
We discover in the second season that the margin for error for this ISU squad is razor thin. In fact, there is almost no margin for error at all.
