After a disappointing end to a furious comeback in Norman, Iowa State returned home to face the Texas Longhorns led by quarterback Sam Ehlinger. After suffering their 4th loss of 7 points or fewer (3rd by 2 or fewer) Iowa State would have another tough task at home facing the Longhorns. Iowa State controlled much of the game, but the Longhorns wouldn’t go home quietly. After forcing a 3 and out down 21-20, Iowa State got the ball back. Brock Purdy led a terrific drive, and with the help of a Texas defender jumping offsides on a field goal attempt, Conner Assalley came in to attempt a game-winning 36 yarder.
