Here is analysis from TOE fan:
"KF will try to establish a run game while mixing in short passes and a little play-action over the top to Easley. If the hawks can do this they will control the clock which they should have no problem doing against a weak Iowa State defensive line."
It's one thing to think your team will win, it's another to not even know enough about your opponent to make an informed analysis. I get the coaches know how good ISU D line is, but this sheds light on why TOE always has this, "we're superior" complex. They will be in shock when ISU D line dominates en route to an ISU win, but we won't be.
