What an interesting season Arkansas State is having thus far.
The Red Wolves arguably should have lost against Central Arkansas in Week 1 if not for an officiating mistake that the Sun Belt admitted to. Then they beat Tulsa of the AAC 28-24 and then went to Michigan and played a competitive contest before falling 28-18.
Arkansas State has another chance at another ranked Power Four foe in Week 4. The Red Wolves (2-1) go on the road to take on No. 20 Iowa State (2-0).

Arkansas State vs. Iowa State Prediction
I predict Iowa State will win but Arkansas State will cover the spread at +21.5. I also project the game will go Under 51.5 total points.
Iowa State recently defeated in-state opponent Iowa 20-19, undoubtedly an impressive performance against a ranked program. Between that and their 21-3 win over North Dakota, the Cyclones have given up just 22 points in two outings.
But Arkansas State’s defense has also been solid recently, especially against Michigan. And if the Red Wolves can keep it a 10-point game in a low-scoring affair against the Wolverines, I think they will again against Iowa State.
