Michigan State football without four starters, including Matt Allen again, vs. Iowa

IOWA CITY, Iowa — Michigan State football will be without four starters for its game Saturday at Iowa.

Cornerback Chris Jackson, who started the first two games, is not in uniform. Julian Barnett worked in Jackson’s place with the No. 1 defense during warmups. The second-year sophomore transitioned back to his natural position cornerback in the offseason after playing wide receiver last season.

Wide receiver Tre Mosley is not in uniform after dressing but not playing last week at Michigan. The sophomore injured his right leg in MSU’s opener against Rutgers.

Center Matt Allen, who traveled to Ann Arbor, remains out of uniform for the second straight week.
