Ames, Iowa — Iowa State linebacker Mike Rose says a length losing streak at Kansas State has not been discussed this week.
The Cyclones visit the Wildcats under the lights and will be in search of their first victory in Manhattan since 2004.
Two years ago in Manhattan K-State scored the final 13 points of the game to edge the Cyclones 27-27 on a frigid and windy day.
Rose says the Cyclones used the bye week for self evaluation.
Safety Greg Eisworth says the Cyclones are getting ready for a hostile environment.
K-State quarterback Skylar Thompson is back from injury and Eisworth says that will add to the challenge.
Eisworth says the Cyclones need to limit mistakes.
Iowa State tight end Charlie Kolar says crowd noise could be a factor this weekend when the Cyclones visit Kansas State.
Kolar says the Cyclones are ready to go after a bye week.
Kolar says the Cyclones need to keep the crowd out of the game.
