Brock Purdy shook off turnovers on Iowa State’s first two possessions to set a school record for total offense and the Cyclones scored their most points in 113 years in a 72-20 win over Louisiana-Monroe on Saturday in Ames, Iowa.
Purdy was intercepted on ISU’s first play from scrimmage and then lost a fumble on the Cyclones’ second drive. But the sophomore quarterback then led them on eight consecutive scoring drives, three ending with him scoring rushing touchdowns. He connected with Deshaunte Watson on an 84-yard scoring strike with 8:37 left in the third to make it 41-13, and his 12-yard TD pass to Sean Shaw with 19 seconds left in the third upped the advantage to 48-20.
ISU also forced three turnovers, including a 48-yard interception return for a TD by Jake Hummel midway through the fourth quarter.
