Your 9th ranked Iowa State University Cyclones face off this weekend against what could be the best defensive unit they’ve come across this weekend against West Virginia. The Mountaineers rank 1st in the Big 12 in yards per game, points allowed per game, passing yards allowed per game, and 3rd in rush yards against per game. The Mountaineers also lead the Big 12 in INTs with 10. So, they’re no joke.
On the other hand, Breece Hall leads the nation in rushing, and the Cyclones lead the Big 12 in rushing. Hall, although snapping his streak of consecutive 100 yard games, is now top 10 in a whole lot of in-season and career records.
