This is a Free #NCAAF play on the Iowa State Cyclones.
The Texas Longhorns came quite close to upsetting #11 ranked Oklahoma last week, and now they find themselves favored by double digits at home to Iowa State this Saturday.
The Cyclones are just 2-4, but I think they've played far better than that record would suggest. Some would say that they haven't gotten a fair shake from the officials, and when you take a look at the replay of the final play of the first half of their loss to Oklahoma State, it's easy to see why the Cyclones were not happy.
It appeared that Desmond Roland was stopped short of the goal line as time expired in the half, but officials reviewed the play and decided he got in for the TD. It's worth a look on Youtube, I can't see how anyone could have said that there was indisputable evidence of a TD.
The Cylcones lost that game by 17 points, which doesn't give us an accurate indication of how close the game actually was. Iowa State also played a tough game against Kansas State, losing by just four, and they beat Iowa outright 20-17 on the road.
Texas looked impressive last week, but I still think it's asking too much of the Longhorns to cover a big number here. Last year Texas won by a score of 31-30 in Iowa, and the visitors have covered six of the last eight in this series.
