I can’t remember a single Iowa State football season that’s excited me as much as this one. Hell, I’m not sure if I can name a season in any sport that I’ve ever been more excited for than this football season.
It’s got all of the pieces that make a great sports story. A budding star at quarterback, a bunch of young hotshots at running back and receiver, an underdog offensive line looking to buck the trend, a suffocating defense capable of bringing almost any opposing offense to its knees, and a young coach looking to seat himself at the table of the elite.
