Iowa dominated Northern Iowa 42-0 by halftime, and Chris Hassel and Andrew Downs break down the Hawkeyes’ statement performance before Big Ten play begins.
The guys discuss Hank Brown’s perfect 12-for-12 first half, two touchdown passes and why the quarterback competition with Jeremy Hecklinski might be officially over. They also break down Iowa’s explosive rushing attack, Xavier Williams’ huge first half, Tony Diaz, the offensive line, and an offense that has looked dramatically different under Tim Lester.
Plus, Hassel and Downs examine Iowa’s injury situation, Evan James emerging as the punt returner, special teams progress, and what Iowa needs to carry into a massive three-game stretch against Michigan, Ohio State, and Washington.
The guys also look ahead to Michigan, name their Players of the Game, as Iowa enters Big Ten play 3-0 with its quarterback, defense, and special teams all trending in the right direction.
