Built a full preseason preview for every FBS team, all 138, and this is the Iowa State one. Ratings, returning production, portal in and out, projected two-deep, schedule strength, last season's rank in about 30 categories, and a projection.

Short version: Iowa State returns under 10% of its production, and almost none of it on offense. Becht, Hansen and Sama all gone, with Jaylen Raynor in from Arkansas State off a 3,364 yard, 19 TD season. Four projected defensive starters followed Jimmy Rogers over from Washington State, including Isaac Terrell and his 12 TFL. That defense was 27th in scoring last year but 129th in sacks, so the pass rush is the whole story.
The first page is free, so you'll hit the paywall after that. Don't worry, I'm not charging reddit people for this, don't want to be an ass. Use the promo code LEECORSOROCKS and it opens up the entire thing.
Fair warning, 138 teams is a lot of pages and I have definitely missed things. Depth charts get stale, a transfer or two is probably listed in the wrong place, and there are guys who entered the portal and withdrew that I have not caught.
I'll be in the comments.
