IOWA STATE
Iowa State has already had a solid bounce back season after losing to Louisiana to open the year. But with QB Brock Purdy, an improving defense, and a friendly schedule down the stretch, the Cyclones could absolutely win out. To do so, they'll have to a better job creating explosive plays with the passing game and limiting explosive plays through the air. Consider Iowa State will finish with a disappointing Baylor team, a reeling Kansas State squad, at Texas, and against West Virginia. Iowa State may be an underdog in the game at Texas, but the schedule and team are there to finish 8-2.
