Running back Chuba Hubbard has gotten better with each passing week, as has receiver Tylan Wallace. Freshman quarterback Shane Illingworth did a great job in filling in for Sanders as he helped lead the Pokes to a 3-0 record. He'll also be available today against Iowa State.
The Cowboy defense is set to face a tough Cyclone offense led by quarterback Brock Purdy, running back Breece Hall and tight end Charlie Kolar.
