This week in Iowa State talk

The shows spent the week digging into Iowa State's struggles after a blowout loss to Arizona. Cover 3 had been bullish on the Cyclones as an underdog before that game, but the conversation shifted to how that defense got exposed. Looking ahead to Oklahoma State, The Solid Verbal discussed the matchup against an injury-plagued Iowa State while also weighing Eric Morris's case for coach of the year.
