Iowa State linebacker O’Rien Vance says the Cyclones remain confident despite an 0-2 start to the Big 12 race.
ISU looks to break through in league play this week at home against Kansas State.
Vance says the goal this week for the defense is to make K-State one dimensional.
Stopping the run game is more of a challenge against K-State quarterback Adrian Martinez.
Iowa State running back Deon Silas is ready for a larger role if needed. The sophomore stepped in at Kansas when Jirehl Brock was injured and finished with 12 carries for 29 yards and also added four receptions.
Silas says while confident in his ability to run and catches passes out of the backfield he wants to improve as a blocker.
Silas says the K-State defense they face this week looks familiar.
