Ohio State is smart enough to load up the LOS and make Cade beat them.
I wish we had some plays where Jazz and KJ would be in the backfield at the same time.
Curious if there is a picture out there of Shonn and Kaleb with each other a few weeks back in Iowa City. KJ is a large man, i would think he dwarfs SG!!
the easy comp is Derrick Henry---

AP dialed it back after he broke his collar bone (none contact showboating), before that he was bruiser.
Damn nice video...gill doing work blocking on edge! Washington jr had a huge block on a td run too
Lester seems to be taking what he's got talent-wise and utilizing it to the full capacity.
The offense simply looks better coached, starting with the OL and everyone else assigned to block.

The Iowa OL was pretty good in 2008 and 2009, IIRC....
The Iowa OL was a bit disappointing in '06. However, in '08 and '09 it was quite good. Had the group remained in good health in '09 ... that season would have been even better. Dace's injury definitely impacted things then.
I mean 16 years is more than one decade (if we're being pedantic) ((which I am))
Kaleb Johnson is a more dangerous RB than Shonn Greene. He's a more fluid athlete, much better break away speed, doesn't run quite as hard as Greene, but he runs plenty hard.
Dammit, caught in my own literary trap. I'll settle for 1.6 decades.
