Leipold said they didn't let the crowd get into it in the first half. That really helped them. He said it's a tough place to play and a great environment especially at night.
They are ready for another challenge with Texas Tech.
He felt the stadium in Ames is like the Booth where it's louder than what maybe the amount of fans are in the stadium.
Mello interception and getting off the field was huge and this was their best blitz game they've had this year.
He attributes experience and film study with the big plays the secondary has made. I'm getting the big interceptions he also credited the defensive front for getting some pressure on the quarterback to for some of those throws.
Bean's confidence is growing and that confidence is allowing him to be a leader. He's never going to be allowed leader. They have continued to build a game plan around his strengths.
Leiopld said he didn't realize how good Skinner's catch was live until he got home and saw it on Sports center. Said there are so many guys who can catch the ball that they spread the ball around to different players.
Hatcher had a great game and got to play back in front of several family and friends because that's where he is from. Having him back healthy will be a big key.
They knew it would be hard to run the ball against Iowa State because they are one of the best in the conference. Neither team had 60 plays and Iowa state is similar with KU because they play the same style.
He felt both teams struggled with the grass and slipping.
On the big pass play to Arnold they talked about before the play staying aggressive. The energy in the stadium had shifted toward Iowa State and after that play it changed back.
To be ranked 16th in the college football playoff poll is helping the program. On Tuesday nights they make recruiting calls and he said you could see that subject of the ranking come up with several recruits on their phone calls.
