Week 1: Ty Fryfogle vs. Iowa’s corners
Week 2: Charlie Kolar/Chase Allen vs. Iowa’s linebackers
The two Cyclone tight ends had just 5 receptions for a combined 36 yards while Iowa’s linebackers wreaked havoc all over the field with 17 combined tackles. They also combined for, arguably, the most important play of the game when the Hawkeyes scored on defense again to build a double digit lead.
Though the fumble was Breece Hall’s, it was a result of Jestin Jacobs treating Chase Allen like a ragdoll just before Jacobs dislodged it.
