By the Numbers: No. 14 Oklahoma Sooners vs. Iowa State Cyclones

Tale of the tape for Saturday’s matchup between the Oklahoma Sooners and Iowa State Cyclones.

The Oklahoma Sooners and [autotag]Iowa State Cyclones[/autotag] have battled in close contests over the last several years. Even last year, when the Sooners won by multiple scores, it was a tight contest in the first half.

A [autotag]Zach Schmit[/autotag] fake field goal run provided their first touchdown of the game.

This has the makings of a defensive battle, but the Oklahoma Sooners have the more talented offense. Can they execute better in the running game and take advantage of the Cyclones’ 3-3-5 look?

The Sooners will have to be patient in this one, but as heavy favorites at home, should come away with the win. However, Iowa State’s defense has a chance to keep this close.

Here’s a look at this week’s tale of the tape with a by the numbers look at Oklahoma vs. Iowa State.
