Last week Iowa welcomed the B1G’s leading rusher, Kyle Monangai, into Kinnick Stadium and shut him down to the tune of 39 yards on 13 carries. Reggie Love III does not have the stats of Kyle Monangai, but if not for an injury against Nebraska he very well might have. Last week saw Love III, in his first game since October 6th, run for 140 yards (5.8 ypc) and 2 TDs, which is a pretty solid return. Saturday will also see the return of Luke Altmayr to the starting role, and while he’s not a “mobile” QB, he’s sporting nearly 300 rushing yards through 11 weeks.
By The Numbers: Iowa vs. Illinois
