Iowa State was up 17-7 last year and did what they normally don't and what they have not done this year which is turn the ball over and commit costly penalties. Iowa State had 9 penalties and 3 turnovers last year and lost 28-17 failing to score after the first quarter. This year they have had a hard time getting their running game going, but facing Tulsa could change that as Tulsa lost basically everyone from the veteran defense a year ago. Their defense has been struggling vs. the pass and the run so finally Iowa State which has some extra time to prepare can get the offense moving. James White is a senior at RB that should be able to get moving against Tulsa and QB Sam Richardson is a dangerous all around athlete who has a play maker at WR in Quenton Bundrage.

Tulsa on the other hand had to replace 3 along the offensive line and still have RB Trey Watts, but Cody Green at QB is not the answer and defenses can easily game plan to take the running game away and make Green beat them and he can't. He completes just 52% of his passes with 3TD and 2 INT in 3 games and he struggled in this match up last year. Tulsa and Iowa State needs this game, but I'm putting it on Iowa State because they have more offensive play makers that will finally show up.
