(Radio Iowa) – Iowa State hosts UNI on Saturday and the Cyclones enter game week with a number seven national ranking and monster expectations. ISU coach Matt Campbell says it is a new season but they don’t want to forget the past.

Campbell says many of the players are the same and the formula for success remains the same.

Campbell calls it winning in the margins.

Iowa State quarterback Brock Purdy says past success and experience gives the Cyclones confidence.

Purdy says “winning in the margins” begins with limiting mistakes.

Iowa State tight end Charlie Kolar says the Cyclones are a confident yet humble team.
