In this edition of the Big Me Kickoff, we are talking about the Buckeyes and the Hawkeyes and trust us when we say that these two teams are not equal when it comes to playing football. The Buckeyes have proven to be a balanced team on both offense and defense while the Hawkeyes are anything but that.
Iowa has a solid defense, but the offense has been anything but productive as the Hawkeyes have only seven offensive touchdowns on the season through six games and things don’t appear to be getting any better in terms of offensive flow.

We are joining and old friend this week as we talk to Tom Kakert of HawkeyeReport.com to get some intel on the Hawkeyes. What makes this defense so good, what makes this offense so bad and what can the Hawkeyes do to try and change things up before the Buckeyes, if anything?
All that and more on this edition of the Big Me Kickoff.
