Iowa Hawkeyes vs Purdue preview: Keagan Johnson should be a big factor; why Matt Hankins should match up on David Bell

With gameday 24 hours away, we have you covered with a full preview of the Iowa Hawkeyes game vs the Purdue Boilermakers. Offensively, Iowa should look to attack vertically and attack often with Purdue down a starting cornerback and being vulnerable over the top with their safeties. This could mean big things for freshman Keagan Johnson and daredevil return man Charlie Jones. And getting the pass going early could help the rushing attack start humming late with Tyler Goodson. Defensively, Iowa has had to prepare for two QBs, but it has been officially announced that Aiden O'Connell is starting for Purdue. We break down what to expect from him and how Phil Parker should consider game planning to stop a Purdue attack that always gives the Hawks fits. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
