Model prediction
how the number is builtOur model simulates the game drive by drive from each side's opponent-adjusted efficiency, with home-field advantage. That projects ISU -26.7 (94% to win) — 2.8 points clear of SOUT's market line of -29.5. That is a disagreement, not a betting edge — sides we favour have not covered at better than breakeven.
Why that percentage is worth reading: across 604 graded in-season games, the calls this model put near 58% came in at 58.2%. The full calibration table is published, bin by bin. Early in the season the cold-start path runs instead and calibrates less well (Brier 0.2028 against 0.1889).

Jaylen Raynor produced five of Iowa State's six explosive plays
The scoreboard says rout. The interesting part is HOW — and whether it means anything.
The turnover battle was the game
Iowa State won the turnover battle 0-5, chiefly Beni Ngoyi (1 INT, 1.5 tackles) and Drew Surges (1 forced fumble, 2.5 tackles). Iowa State sacked Southeast Missouri State's quarterback 6 times to Southeast Missouri State's 1: Isaac Terrell (3 sacks), Sullivan Schlimgen (1 sack) and Jack Janikowski (1 sack). Stacked together, it was never close.
The names on it
Jaylen Raynor threw for 184 yards on 16 attempts with two touchdowns and ran seven times for 32 yards and two scores — three of them from inside the 20, three third-down conversions and a hand in five plays of 15 yards or more. Aiden Flora ran seven times for 45 yards and one score, with that score from inside the 20. Vince Benetti caught one pass for 24 yards for a touchdown. For Southeast Missouri State, Khyair Spain ran 16 times for 72 yards. John Anthony caught one pass for 40 yards. Tyrell Reed Jr. ran nine times for 27 yards. Isaac Terrell was the disruptive one for Iowa State: 3 sacks, 3 TFLs, 3 tackles.
What Southeast Missouri State has to fix
The problems had names: Tyrell Reed Jr. (1 lost fumble) and Chance Wilson (1 lost fumble).
The disruptive ones
Three names to keep, all for Iowa State: Isaac Terrell (3 sacks, 3 TFLs, 3 tackles), Beni Ngoyi (1 INT, 1.5 tackles) and Sullivan Schlimgen (1 sack, 1 TFL, 6.5 tackles). 4 of Iowa State's 5 sacks came from the defensive line, which is how this defense has generated pressure since 2017.
The order of events
Iowa State struck first through Jaylen Raynor, led 28-7 at the half and Iowa State got the final points on a late touchdown by Jaylen Raynor.
How it graded
The closing line had Iowa State -29.5. Southeast Missouri State covered. The total was 52.5; the teams combined for 48, an under. Chance Wilson accounted for 6 of Southeast Missouri State's points.
Where it leaves them
Historically similar games since 2019 — close margin, both offenses held far below norm — and how often that offense outperformed this level the following week.
Iowa State cleared the bar with room to spare; Southeast Missouri State goes back to the drawing board.
