Not sure what to talk about, but I noticed someone mentioning that the number of Iowa threads out numbered K-State ones.
Soooo... If any has anything to add to this feel free. Otherwise, there is no need for this K-state thread.

If we play an OU or Mizzou quality game, we will be celebrating a victory Sat afternoon. And on national TV no less.

K-State has a fairly solid team. Not sure what their weaknesses are, but they do have good special teams. We need to not give up big special teams plays, otherwise the game could end up out of reach early.
If we play with intensity and passion we have a decent chance at winning. The same thing can be said for our fans, we need to be passionate and LOUD.

They bought 36,000 season tickets so there is a passion there…don’t hide it… let it out. I want there to be a passion in the stadium."

Its all shaping up that way.. Hopefully the players realize they have a great chance to steal one on Saturday.
Oh and in no way does steal in this post have anything to do with DD...

Freeman's a big boy behind center. Watching some of their games earlier this year, against Auburn and Texas, he showed a lot of toughness. Nelson #27 is a big playmaker. This game is completely winnable but we have to play with the same tenacity as we have the last 2 weeks. I am confident that we will. It's a W baby.

If we win on Saturday I just may start a petition to have all our games broadcasted on Versus.

We need to limit Jordy Nelson and make him a nonfactor.

Deep within the heart of Iowa, a storm is brewing...
... the winds of change ripple throughout the vast fields of corn surrounding the small college town of Ames.
The Gene Chizik era of football continues, and, with it, a renewed attitude of pride, determination, and success.
This is Cyclone Football. | |

Whoops. It was me who said there are more Iowa threads than K-State threads so I was in the process of creating one while this one was made.

I know... I was bored and had to be a smart-#ss..
I haven't watched K-State much the last two years but what type of QB is Freeman. Pocket or Scramble..

Also, we need to have a big day on the ground. We'll need a running back to run for 100+ yards and at least two scores. Meyer will need to not turn the ball over. If we can establish a solid running game we will be able to score points, much like at Missouri. The passing game will be there, but it can't shoulder the entire offensive burden.
Defensively, what others have said which is to limit K-State's playmakers. Hit hard. Be like gum on the bottom of their shoes. Come up with big plays!

He is a big QB and would rather stay in the pocket, but will take off when pressured but isn't too speedy because of his size. He will take on defenders with a shoulder from time to time.
