_ Iowa State might have the best pair of linebackers in the Big 12 in Jake Knott and A.J. Klein. They’ll test Collin Klein and Kansas State in Ames on Saturday.
_ Texas-San Antonio, led by former Miami coach Larry Coker, is 5-0 in its transition season to FCS. It’s a nice start, but for perspective on UTSA’s competition to this point, the Roadrunners are three-point underdogs at Rice on Saturday. The Owls are 1-5.

OK, then.
