Iowa State's commanding 38-14 victory over the Kansas Jayhawks this past weekend was a defining moment of their season, securing the Cyclones' seventh win and demonstrating their full potential. The win, which snapped a three-game skid against Kansas, was fueled by a return to form from the offense, anchored by quarterback Rocco Becht, and a stout performance from a defense that suffocated the Kansas attack.

Quarterback Rocco Becht looked sharper and more confident than ever, throwing for three touchdowns and efficiently managing the game. However, the Cyclones truly leaned on a powerful run game to control the clock and wear down the opposing defense. Running back Carsen Hansen delivered a career-best performance, rushing for 120 yards and a touchdown, which established a physical tempo that Kansas struggled to match. This commitment to the ground attack opened up the passing game, allowing Becht to connect on timely throws and sustain crucial drives throughout the contest.

Crucially, the Iowa State defense played super good, holding a potent Kansas offense to just 14 points. This unit consistently pressured the quarterback and limited explosive plays, ensuring the Cyclones maintained a comfortable lead throughout the afternoon. This level of execution—from the confident quarterback play and relentless rushing attack to the dominant defensive stand, showcased a complete team effort. The comprehensive victory propels Iowa State to a 7-4 record and sets a strong trajectory for the final games of the regular season.
