Iowa State had multiple opportunities on Saturday against Kansas State, yet they didn’t convert enough to knock off the Wildcats from Kansas State. After falling behind 31-10, the Cyclones didn’t keel over and die. Instead, they mounted a furious comeback just to come up short by a score of 31-26.
Here’s the breakdown of the good, bad, and ugly results.
It has been known that ISU is a 45-minute team throughout the first 7 games, but they proved all doubters wrong on Saturday. While Kansas State did not display the type of aggressiveness they had in the first 3 quarters, ISU showed they can make stops too, holding the Wildcats to 9 total yards and even a tackle-for-loss in the end zone for a safety in the 4th quarter.
