Cyclone Alert's Alec Busse and Henry Annen dive into the biggest topics facing T.J. Otzelberger's basketball program following summer practices, including the shoulder injury Killyan Toure is dealing with and the concerns it creates with backcourt depth. Later in the show, the team focuses on Iowa State basketball's nonconference schedule, offering their thoughts on the best games and the most exciting matchups that Iowa State is facing this season.

Cyclone Alert's Alec Busse and Henry Annen link up to recap Iowa State's 28-point win over Southeast Missouri State.

Iowa State quarterback Jaylen Raynor accounted for four touchdowns and nearly 200 total passing yards in the victory, but the Cyclones struggled to effectively run the ball throughout the four-quarter game. Defensively, the Cyclone pass rush was dominant, especially in the first half, with Isaac Terrell generating three sacks for Iowa State.
