Listen "Rocco Becht Delivers in the Clutch Again! Cyclones Survive Sloppy Start in Ireland."
Episode Synopsis
Football is back, and Week Zero didn’t disappoint. In this episode of Saturday vs Sunday, we break down the Iowa State vs Kansas State clash that kicked off the college season in Dublin. Rocco Becht once again proved why he’s one of the most reliable closers in the Big 12, guiding the Cyclones to a gritty win despite a sloppy first half marred by rain, turnovers, and dropped passes.We dive into the tale of two quarterbacks: Becht’s steady hand in the clutch and Avery Johnson’s encouraging progress for Kansas State. Johnson avoided turnovers, threw for 273 yards, and showed flashes of the dual-threat potential that made him so intriguing last season. Still, it wasn’t enough against Iowa State’s late surge led by running back Carson Hanson, who came alive in the fourth quarter with fresh legs and physical runs.We also discuss the impact of dominant defensive line play on both sides, the crucial coaching decisions that swung the outcome, and the concerning injury to K-State’s Dylan Edwards that could shape their season. From missed opportunities to gutsy fourth-down conversions, this game had everything that makes Big 12 football unpredictable and fun.Sloppy or not, it was a thrilling way to start the college football season—and we’ll tell you why we’d still take this over any preseason NFL game.
