Iowa State quarterback Rocco Becht is ready for the challenge of the Cy-Hawk Series. The redshirt freshman from Florida took the majority of the snaps in a 30-9 win over Northern Iowa.
He will be the starter in Saturday’s 70th meeting against Iowa.
Becht was 10-of-13 for 113 yards and two touchdowns against the Panthers. The Hawkeye defense figures to be an even tougher challenge.
The Cyclones look to make it two in a row over the Hawkeyes after a 10-7 win in Kinnick Stadium last season.
Becht has learned from the Iowa natives on the team how important this game is.
