(Radio Iowa)  – It’s still early but Iowa State has the look of a serious contender in the Big-12 race. After opening the league race with a win at TCU the Cyclones beat Oklahoma and take a number 24 national ranking into Saturday’s game at home against Texas Tech.

That’s ISU coach Matt Campbell who is not concerned about a letdown after a big win over the Sooners.

The Cyclones aren’t sure who they see at quarterback. Alan Bowman was injured in the first quarter of Texas Tech’s loss at Kansas State and was replaced by Utah State transfer Henry Colombi.

Texas Tech coach Matt Wells says quarterback Brock Purdy leads a well rounded Cyclone team.

Wells says the Cyclones are solid in all areas.

Wells says Purdy is playing like a veteran.

The Red Raiders are 1-2 overall.
