Iowa State has already dominated one bad team this season, blowing out Southeast Missouri State in a 42-10 final in its opener. The Cyclones backed that performance up with a 10-7 win at Iowa last week, scoring 10 unanswered points after allowing the first score of the game. They controlled nearly 40 minutes of possession and held Iowa to a 3 of 11 conversion rate on third down.'
Sophomore quarterback Hunter Dekkers has thrown for 477 yards and five touchdowns this season, with senior wide receiver Xavier Hutchinson catching 19 passes for 226 yards and four of those scores. Junior running back Jirehl Brock has stepped up in his first two games as the starter, rushing for 204 yards and a touchdown on 43 carries. Iowa State is on a five-game home winning streak, while Ohio is just 4-10 in its last 14 games overall.'
Ohio opened the season with an upset win against Florida Atlantic before playing at Penn State last week, so the Bobcats are not going to be intimidated by Iowa State. Junior quarterback Kurtis Rourke completed 27 of 34 passes for 345 yards and four touchdowns in the win over Florida Atlantic. Freshman Sieh Bangura leads the rushing attack with 30 carries for 139 yards and a touchdown, averaging 4.6 yards per attempt.'
This is the definition of a trap game for Iowa State, as it is coming off a big win over its rival and has a game against No. 17 Baylor next week. The Cyclones have been overvalued in general going back to last season, covering the spread in just three of their last nine games. They did not cover the 33.5-point spread against Southeast Missouri State in their season opener, and they are not going to be motivated to beat Ohio by 20-plus points on Saturday.'
