Iowa has a talent RB of their own. Indiana will have a new RB in 2021 starting, while Iowa State will have likely the best the Hawkeyes will face.
Minnesota will bring their top RB to Kinnick if all goes well for Tanner Morgan and PJ Fleck in 2021?
Iowa State has an All-American. A couple at different positions in 2021, most likely again?

Of his 280 carries on the year, only 13.6% resulted in a 10-plus-yard gain, 86th of 140 qualifiers. But despite the discrepancy between the box score and the play-level production, Hall still lands comfortably into this top 10.
The Iowa State running back has the explosiveness to ramp up that big-run rate and proved on a number of occasions that he has an uncoachable ability to make something out of nothing. Among the 68 FBS backs who totaled at least 50 carries on which they were contacted behind the line of scrimmage in 2020, Hall ranked third in PFF rushing grade.
So, PFF doesn't see Hall remaining in Top 3 in 2021?
Of course, is there that much difference?
Let's hope Iowa becomes the thorn of 2021 at the beginning of the season?

6. BREECE HALL, IOWA STATE
Some might consider this ranking disrespectful, as Hall led the country with 1,562 rushing yards in 2020, but let’s not forget that he also saw 28 more carries than any other back and was one of six backs with over 200 carries.Of his 280 carries on the year, only 13.6% resulted in a 10-plus-yard gain, 86th of 140 qualifiers.
