Iowa State’s defense is preparing to take on a Utah offense that is averaging more than 47 points per game. The Cyclones host the 15th ranked Utes on Saturday in the Big 12 opener for both. The Cyclones enter conference play with a record of 2-1.
That’s junior linebacker Beau Goodwin. The Cyclone defense must prepare for a Utah offense that, at times, has two quarterbacks on the field. Senior Devon Dampier is completing nearly 72 percent of his passes and is also a threat in the run game.
Cyclone corner David Coffey says Dampier puts a lot of pressure on defenses.
Coffey says Dampier’s ability to scramble will for the secondary to cover their receivers longer.
