Running back Mekhi Sargent is an underrated part of the Iowa Hawkeyes offense. Sargent deserves more recognition for his efforts.
Iowa football has enjoyed immense success on the ground this season. While Tyler Goodson may get the bulk of the rushing attempts, and in turn, the majority of the praise, fellow running back Mekhi Sargent deserves his turn in the lime light.
