Offense Brocktober, and sadly the last one, is over. Brock Purdy would’ve liked a different outcome to his Brocktober finale against West Virginia. Purdy has his least amount of throwing yards since Iowa, and he had 11 incompletions after having only 14 incompletions the rest of October. I would expect Texas to stack the box, and Iowa State is going to have to chain together long drives on Saturday to beat the Longhorns.
Defense The secondary. Woof. I truly do think the hardest position to play in football is a cornerback. Great coverage without committing a penalty is walking a very thin tight rope over a pit of free pass interference yards.
