As Iowa State gets ready for its most anticipated football season a more explosive passing game may help the offense take the next step.
It is not as glaring weakness, especially for an offense that averaged 33 points and 195 yards of rushing in a season that concluded with a Fiesta Bowl win. However, ISU did average only a little over seven and-a-half yards per pass attempt.
That’s Cyclone coach Matt Campbell who says the ultimate goal is to win.
Offensive coordinator Tom Manning says it is about creating the right opportunities to take shots down the field.
Manning says it is also about taking what the defense gives you.
Iowa State opens the season September fourth at home against UNI.
