What kind of D do y'all have?

Can your corners handle Juice and Odell?

Our corners are adequate.

#14 Desmond King is a true freshman and took the starting job after taking over for an injury and didn't give it back. He has done very well. Lot's of talk that he could end up being one of the better CB's to play at Iowa. The jury is still out but he has held his own most of the time. I've been satisfied with his play, freshman or not.

#19 BJ Lowery is a senior that has had a good year and will likely be drafted mid to late rounds. Probably a poor mans version of Micah Hyde and Speivey, former Hawks in the NFL. Not a speed burner but solid.

Again, neither are elite, shut down type CB's and the D philosophy over time for Iowa has been a cover 2 scheme which means they rely heavily on the Safeties.

1 on 1 your guys would be certainly at an advantage but as a team, Iowa can hold their own.
