Wide Right & Natty Litecast

Sports


Grant Mahoney makes his Wide Right Natty Litecast debut and he will be joining the show full time as the season goes on. Grant and Matthias discuss the soggy Cy-Hawk game and all that went down on Saturday. Obviously it is not the outcome Cyclone fans wanted but there were a ton of positives to come from it.One of the biggest things that stuck out was the improvement of the offensive line from the UNI game to Saturday. The line was able to create space in the run game and give plenty of time for Brock Purdy in the pocket. The one thing that the guys think the offense lacks is the ability to send the ending haymaker. Obviously most of the skill players for the Iowa State offense are young and that will come over time but it will need to develop sooner than later as the team approaches Big 12 play.Not much went wrong for the defense as they were sound as usual. A few plays were missed including the dropped interception in the end zone late in the 4th quarter. It goes to show that one play can significantly determine an outcome. Speaking of one play, the punt return that sealed the deal for Iowa was discussed. While it was a bad play, it is something that the guys guarantee won't be happening again. Especially with Matt Campbell bringing up special teams in the post game.As always thank you for listening and thank you to our sponsor Es Tas Bar and Grill.
