The expectations have never been higher for the Iowa State football team. After back-to-back eight win seasons the Cyclones are predicted to finish third in the Big-12. A big reason for the optimism is the return of quarterback Brock Purdy who led the Cyclones to a 7-2 record as a true freshman.
Purdy considers Kyle Kempt his mentor. The former quarterback has joined the Cyclone coaching staff as an offensive analyst.
Iowa State opens against UNI on August 31st.
