Iowa State head coach Paul Rhoads feels that running back might be the team's deepest position, with Shontrelle Johnson taking a majority of the carries and Jeff Woody to be the Cyclones' short yardage and goal line back.

Johnson should also poise a threat in the return game as he was fourth in the Big 12 last season in kickoff return average. With four different backs seeing extended playing time this season, deeper leagues might want to take a look at Woody.
