A week after the #19 Iowa Hawkeyes (1-0, 0-0) dispatched of a 20-point underdog, they’re set to face another one in the Rutgers Scarlet Knights (1-0, 0-0). While the Hawkeyes were able to enforce their will against the RedHawks, it could be a different story this week as their opponent has some real difference makers at skill positions.
The focal point of their offense is Raheem Blackshear, who led the team in rushing and receiving in 2018 with 953 yards from scrimmage. While that number might seem small, Iowa’s top yard-gainer last year was Mekhi Sargent with 901 so discount the production at your own risk.
