Matt Campbell and his team, the Iowa State Cyclones, are aiming for a 4-0 season start since 2000. Campbell, who joined Iowa State in 2016, is also looking for his 57th coaching victory. This week marks the Big 12 opener for the Cyclones. With three back-to-back victories, the Cyclones are looking very strong. Meanwhile, the Houston Cougars are looking forward to ending a four-game losing streak on the big platform of Big 12 matchups. They are seeking to avoid its first 1-4 start since 2004. Willie Fritz and his team need to pull up their socks as they enter the highly anticipated game.

Last week, Cincinnati dominated them throughout the game and won with a huge margin of 34 points. They didn’t give the Houston offense a single chance to score. However, this Saturday is going to be a big day for football fans. While Cyclones is hoping to maintain their winning streak, Houston is looking forward to ending their losing streak.

With Dylan’s contribution, they marked the sixth touchdown, along with a field goal. Arkansas State tried to get back into the game when Websley Etienne intercepted quarterback Connor Moberly’s pass. Etienne tried to return it but could only make ten yards. Moberly tackled him and knocked the ball from his hands. Eli Green recovered for the Cyclones at the 42-yard line. Carson Hansen added another touchdown for his team with a three-yard run.
