Iowa’s football discount inspecting: Iowa hurricanes


Welcome to the Cy-Hwk Week. For time 72, Hawkeyes and Cyclones will go face to face on the network, where the winner will receive the competing bragging rights for the next year. Iowa is leading the series 47-24 at all, but it has lost two of the last three meetings, including the loss of 20-19 last season.

You can say that hurricanes entered this season, as they came out from 11 to 3 years, with a lot of momentum and importance that the program had. They opened the season 22nd in the AP survey and fell No. 17 in the state of Kansas in Dublin at Air Lingus College Classic in the zero week. At the end of last week, Iowa South Dakota stifled 55-7, with Gortrobbeck Roko Bisht for 278 yards and three land touch.

It should be noted that despite the victory of two of the last three meetings, Iowa has not won the Cy-Hwk game in Ames since 2011. In that match, Paul Rhoads defeated IOWA 44-41 in additional time. Hawkeyes won six consecutive in Jacques Tres, but the average victory margin is only 6.8 points.

Some people wondered whether the zero game per week in favor of Iowa will pay profits for the rest of their early schedule of the season, as hurricanes routinely struggled in the first week competitions and did not usually experience a test before the Cy-Hwk game. They were 1-5 against the spread of conquests in the season of 2019-24, including only 21 against North Dakota last season. This time, with a game under their belt, ISU put its largest points in a game since 200 (59 vs Kansas) as it falls 55 points in South Dakota. Take this to what it deserves, but it is a unique scheduling note this season.

Qurtbbeck

It leads the ISU crime in the third year that begins Corterbeck Rocco Bisht Who worked somewhat calm on his way to conversations, not only as one of the best players in the Big 12, but as the best 15-20 cards in the country. Becht ranked third in the 12th Big in last year, with a total of 3505 yards, 25 declines and nine objections, but it decreased to the tenth completion rate (59.4 %). However, he expanded his role as a meteorite, as he got from 100 yards acquired on the ground as a Redshirt student to 400 yards that she gained last season, including eight touch of land. At the beginning of this year, Beccht completed 68.8 % of his decisions for 461 yards and five land touch points, widening his plan to 20 consecutive games with a touch pass.

Running

He expected to see three appearances to get hurricane campaigns on Saturday, with the majority of campaigns divided between Carson Hansen and Abu Sama. Many of the Tuna citizen, Abu Sama, had a messenger summit last year after he placed 276 yards against K-State in the end of the regular season 23. Instead, Carson Hanson led the road with 752 yards and 13 land touching, and got 36.7 % of the campaigns, while Sama’s total reached 587 yards and two landing on 30.2 % of campaigns. Through two games, Hansen 76 Snaps played to 35 Snaps only for Sama, but it was collected for only 156 yards on 42 carrying (3.7 YPC). A red student Dylan Lee It is the third back number and rushed for 81 yards on 13 pregnancy (6.2 YPC), but only 22 shots saw.

Wide reception

It is really difficult to get a scale in the hurricane reception room that enters this week. Not only did the US Football Association owners lose (COP 167 ReC, 2,377 yards), but approximately 40 % of the 52 Rocco Becht goals have gone to its narrow ends, and there is no more than six goals through two games.

student Brett Esclind He performed a few big plays, including 24 yards against K-State and 66 yards against South Dakota in the first play of the game. It leads all ISU receptors with six goals and five fish for 123 yards. Previous ndsu transfer Elie GreenUCF transfer Kazavier Townsand And Sophomore Dominique Overbi They are other players who must know the recipient. These three collected for 12 goals, eight fish and 85 yards. Green got ten passes a year ago, while the total Townsund reached 325 yard in 23 in UCF before losing nine games due to the injury last season. Overby is an excited young man for ISU staff and fans base.

The only person who did not hold the pass after the transfer of East Carolina Chis SewelWhich comes a little surprise. Over the course of two years in the electronic control unit, Sewel has caught 81 passes for 1300 yards, but it only received four goals and has zero holding two games. Do not delete it though. He played 30 Squars Pass, which is more than any ISU future and has four more than 100 yards in his career.

Tight end

Although the use of the wide recipient has decreased to start this year for ISU, it was not because there was no pass. It was because they really relied on their narrow ends of pregnancy in the traffic game. junior Benjamin Brahamir Only ten passes were arrested last season, but he has already received nine passes on ten goals against 88 yards and a husband of relegation this season. Meanwhile, Junior Gabi Bourke Mask was No. 3 last year, with 26 trap, 296 yards. Seven passes on ten goals against 116 yards and landing. The heavy share of the goals that go to Brahmer and Burkle is not surprising, nor an accident, as 50 of Rocco Becht’s 57 Drops came in 2 or 3 TE groups. We expect to see several narrow ends in most of the offensive shots.

The offensive line

At the forefront of the offensive line, hurricanes lost a pair against the American Football Association, including the fourth team, AL-Big 12 Jarrod Hufford, however, they are still 26th in the country in the start of professional (105). Right address Tyler Miller It is the most experienced in the group, with 39 professional beginnings, but as a whole, the ISU line was not behaving well last season. For every supporter of football, ranked 112nd in banning passes and 119 in running, with only nine P4 teams in banning passes and only Maryland arrangement in running. Through two games, the Rocco Becht was pressed 12 times and four times, while the four average attempts at an average of 3.75 yards per pregnancy.

Defending hurricanes

2025 numbers: 14.0 PPG, 96.5 Rush, 199.5 Pass, 296.0 Total

Hurricanes were a decent defensive team last season, and DC John Hicoc made them play well in the defensive end for the nine years in Amis. ISU ranked first among the 50 best points in each game permitted in each of the past eight seasons, including the ranking in the top 25 seasons in three seasons. This year, they return six beginners from the defense of the opponents’ pregnancy to less than 20 points six times, but they allowed 31.9 for each game during the last eight games.

Defensive line

Linebacker injuries were the main theme of the conversation last season to defend ISU, but the first seven play was less than average. The Cyclones defense ranked seventy -ninth in the loss processors for each game, and 109 in Rush Clip for each game and 129 (!!) in bags for each game. Nose guard Dominic Orange The selection of the fourth team All-Big 12 was last season, with a total of 24 games and 17 cortobbber pressure. He was on the field for nearly 70 % of the shots in two games and is the best player to watch on the front of the animals.

The other two names to know, the end of the defensive defensive Inana Isio He moved to the starting lineup after a total of 19 games last season, while Yale Transfer Tamatoa McDonough It was the beginning of the spot of the other side. The choice of a second team with 6.5 bags was last season. They were on the field for nearly 70 % of the shots, just like oranges, but when they explode, they expect a student in Redshirt Jas Gilbert And young Fonterawi Malon.

It is early, but through two games, ISU is ranked 112nd in Pass Rush, while the defensive line has only seven pressure midfielders and zero bags on 60 back players.

Back

ISU players will look completely different from what was the case in this match last season, like Calcon Bacon He was injured in the opening of the season and Will McLeulin He missed the first nine games, and this means that he did not play in the ‘Clones victory over Iowa. Even with the appearance of these two in the barn, it may not be 100 % this week, such as Carson Wilic Last week, he was absent due to an injury after recording four treatments in the opening match against K-State.

One of the few who have been in good health throughout the season “24, young now Cooper Ebel All 14 games started, with a total of 69 games and five games for loss. Meanwhile, Calip Bacon mentioned the above returned to good health after he lost last year, but he had 60 games in 23. Backed pork players with the back of the back with 78 shots played through two games. The third beginners in defending hurricanes 3-3-5 is the second year Bo Godwin. He got a gesture in the first two this season, while the beginnings and the size of 24 games a year ago as a new student.

Other names that must be known in Linebacker include junior Will McLeulin And Sophomore Keel Brezina. McLAGHLIN was a choice for All-Big 12 in the year 23, with 46 games and seven losing treatments, but had only 15 games in four games last season. It leads non -levels with 39 shots through two games. Brezina started the first seven games last year, with 22 games, but it was absent from the past six with an injury. He has played 35 shots so far this season.

Defensive

While the Cyclones Rush defense had retreated a step back last season, their defense took a noticeable step forward, as it moved from 229 yards for each game permitted on 23 (73) to 166 yards for each game permitted last season (1st). They lost three beginners from high school, including buying Myles and Daryn Porter, but still have a pair of all-big 12 options in the room.

In the corner, ISU is the second team all-big 12 Jontez Williams And the first team All-Big 12 Jeremia Cooper Who moves from safety where he played last season. In his first year as a start last season, Williams reached 46 games, and five passes that were dismantled and led the team with four objections. Meanwhile, Cooper has settled 48 treatment, seven loose passes and two objection to safety. Through two games, 11 times were targeted, with six completion for only 19 yards. When they bring a third angle in the field, it is likely that the transfer of Lindinwood Try BellWho put 48 treatment and 12 passes of a broken last two seasons with the lions.

In safety, with Cooper’s move to the corner, a student Marcus Neil Junior He acquired the best man after appearing in 13 games as a new student last season, where he finished 18 games. The team leads with 87 shots and 13 is treated through two games. junior Jameson Patton (13 TKLS, 1 Int, 75 Snaps) and a red shirt student Khijohnn Cumms-COLOMEMAN (5 TKLS, 66 Snaps) got a lot of shots as well.

Final thought

For the second time only in the last eight meetings, Iowa enters this game as weak, with the opening of Iowa as the preferred and current sitting in -3.0 (Betmgm). The last time you were not a favorite? This was the reconciliation of time No. 9 versus 10 in Jacques Tres in 2012 and Hawkeyes at one point that led 27-7. Aside from that, the last seven Cy-HWK games were identified by 35 points (5.0 PPG), which tells you everything you need to know about what usually happens in these games. Iowa has started a great start with a victory in the K-State and a complete dismantling in South Dakota. This has made people speak and I think the way Iowa played against Albani will have many national experts who choose hurricanes. Kirk Ferintz is 7-4 as a dog on the road over the past four seasons, including six explicit victories. marked.
