West Virginia Mountaineers VS Iowa State Cyclones

The Cyclones' offense was particularly effective, amassing a total of 391 yards. The passing game contributed significantly to this tally, with the quarterback throwing for 219 yards and achieving a completion rate of about 67 percent. Two passing touchdowns were recorded, one being the longest for 24 yards. On the ground, Iowa State rushed for an impressive 172 yards across 38 attempts and scored two touchdowns; their longest rush was an exciting dash of 38 yards.


Defensively, Iowa State also put up strong numbers. They sacked the opposing quarterback twice and recorded one interception without conceding any turnovers themselves. Their defense held firm throughout most of the game and only allowed two penalties for a mere total of 25 penalty yards.


Special teams had mixed results; while they successfully made four extra points with a perfect conversion rate, field goal attempts were split even with one successful kick from within the range of thirty-nine yards out but missing another from beyond forty-nine.


The Mountaineers managed to score once in each half but struggled to keep pace with Iowa State's scoring drives. Their efforts resulted in fourteen points against a determined Cyclone defense that did not relent until the final whistle blew.


As fans look forward to future games, they can mark their calendars for when Iowa State will face off against Oklahoma State Cowboys at Boone Pickens Stadium on November twelfth at seven-thirty PM local time (Stillwater). This away game will be broadcasted on ESPNU for fans unable to attend and wish to follow along as it unfolds live.
