Iowa’s run defense faces a tough challenge in Saturday’s game at Minnesota.
Gopher running back Mo Ibrahim is averaging a shade over 140 yards on the ground in Big Ten play and has 18 touchdowns.
That’s Iowa linebacker Seth Benson. The Hawkeyes won last year’s game 27-22 in Iowa City but the Minnesota offense rolled up 189 yards of rushing and had 83 snaps. After a 3-4 start the Hawkeyes have won three straight. Senior linebacker Jack Campbell.
Campbell never wavered in his belief the Hawkeyes would turn their fortunes around.
Defensive lineman Logan Lee credits head coach Kirk Ferentz for helping navigate the Hawkeyes through a tough stretch.
Lee says the 3-4 start is history and so is the three game win streak.
