Leonard Johnson - Last year he got abused in this game and got beat by McNutt on multiple occasions. By the time conference play came around he was very solid and a great CB. Has to play that way in this game and slow down McNutt and not give up the big play.
Jacob Lattimer - With Vandenberg being more of a pocket passer, I think Lattimer can go after him a bit more. Rinnie from UNI was so fast that you had to try and stay in your gaps. On passing plays we need to get some pressure on Vandenberg and it starts with Lattimer
Rump - We need him to be healthy and able to play a majority of the game. Slowing down Iowa's running game is key and takes them out of their ball game if they aren't able to run those play action passes as much
Hayworth Hicks - Can his presence shore up the offensive line? Iowa's got a beast in Mike Daniels and we got to be able to run the football and give Jantz time to make a play. Hopefully the addition of Hicks can plug some holes and tire the Hawkeye D Line
Steele Jantz - Quarterbacks are always the key to every game. Steele needs to play mistake free football and be more accurate than he was last Saturday. I think he made the right reads most of the time, now he just needs to make the throws. And he can't get greedy. Iowa will give up plays underneath. He needs to take what they give him and wait.
Who else ya got?
