Kansas State vs. Iowa State, half-time

With the exception of the Iowa game, this game could be the best played half of the Cyclones’ year. They are doing a lot of the little things, forcing turnovers, making sure they don’t turn it over, finishing off drives in the red zone and more importantly keeping the Wildcats offense off the field. Kansas State has held the ball for 12:26 compared to Iowa State’s 17:34. Both quarterbacks for the Cyclones have looked sharp. Meyer has completed 8-of-10 passes for 78 yards and one touchdown. Arnaud came in for one possession, completed 2-of-2 passes for 60 yards and ran for 23 more yards. Most of us in the media wondered how long Alexander Robinson would stay in at running back, even after his 149 yard rushing game at Missouri. So far, we haven’t seen any of Jason Scales or J.J. Bass. Robinson has carried the ball 17 times for 39 hard fought yards. There’s still another half to play. During the week coach Gene Chizik talked about how he thought many of his players were waiting for something bad to happen. With a 21-20 lead at the half, will something bad happen?
