Iowa State coach Matt Campbell says linebacker Caleb Bacon will miss Saturday’s game at Iowa with a lower leg injury. Bacon was injured in a season opening win over North Dakota and underwent surgery.

Campbell says Bacon could return at some point this season.

Campbell says limiting mistakes against the Iowa defense will be a key. Turnover margin has been a key in Iowa winning seven of the last eight games in the series.

Campbell says Iowa’s defense can make adjustments and takes advantage of mistakes.

In the rapidly changing world of college football Campbell hopes there will still be a place for this series.
