Iowa State
The Cyclones go from one high powering,quick paced offense, to another as they took on TCU last week.

Iowa State struggled to move the ball and ended up not scoring as they saw TCU pull away.

RB Mike Warren has been the backbone of this offense thus far, but struggled to get the big run against TCU. On the season, Warren has 662 yards, but the freshman had just 78 yards on 22 carries as the Horned Frogs bottled him up.
QB Sam Richardson struggled to throw the ball, but showed off his dual threat ability with his feet. Richardson ran 14 times and compiled 99 yards
The Cyclones have lost 13 straight games to ranked opponents.
Baylor
The Bears are making laugh stocks of their competition. Baylor hasn’t scored less than 56 points in a game and hasn’t lost a game by less than 3 touchdowns.
Baylor got arguably their most difficult opponent of the season in West Virginia last week and they had no problem finding the end zone against them. Baylor putting a beating on them 62-38 and continue their journey to a BCS Playoff.

QB Seth Russell has just been unreal this season. Russell has thrown for 1907 yards to go along with 27 touchdowns and just 5 interceptions. Russell’s QB rating on the season sits at 210.
WR Corey Coleman continues to be the go to for Seth Russell. Coleman has 877 yards and a ridiculous 16 TDs on the season.
