## Resource

Iowa’s special teams are undergoing a complete overhaul as they prepare for their first game without longtime staples like Drew Stevens and Rhys Dakin. New coordinator Chris Polizzi is building from scratch, with Eli Ozick emerging as the top kicker after a stellar year at North Dakota State. Aussie punt specialist Boston Everitt is expected to start, while Tanner Philpott lurks as a potential challenger. Long snapper Ike Speltz is the lone holder, and the return game is still up for grabs—with Zach Lutmer’s defensive prowess making him a risky but tempting punt return option, and running backs like Nathan McNeil and Brevin Doll likely to see kickoff duty.
