Iowa State Football Post-Mortem: TCU

The Iowa State football train is now officially fully screaming down the rails at Mach 1. After upsetting Oklahoma, demolishing Kansas, and making Taco Tech somehow even more self-loathsome, the Cyclones were in full “prove it” mode against TCU in their first game as a ranked team in over a decade.

The Running Game

The fact that the running game gets included in this section when we have a demigod at running back shows you how much the offensive line is struggling in the running game. Granted, TCU is the #3 rush defense in the country and is coached by one of the best defensive minds in football in Gary Patterson, but the line consistently got almost no push.
