We have been saying it for weeks and it finally happened. Iowa State opened up the passing game and let it fly on Saturday. Rocco Becht threw for 348 yards and 3 touchdowns against Oklahoma State, all while being quick on his decisions and, most importantly, accurate with the football. Those are great signs that this young quarterback is in command right now.
Not everything was down the field. You even got to see some quick throws that basically were an extension of the run game, since we still can’t run the ball effectively. This is going to have to be the way Iowa State operates until the offensive line finds some sort of footing in the run game.
