## Resource

Iowa’s backfield is poised to be the engine of their offense next season, with Pro Football Focus ranking two of their running backs as the top two in the Big Ten. L.J. Phillips Jr. leads the charge at No. 1, while Kamari Moulton sits at No. 9, both showing explosive potential despite last year’s injuries and FCS-level dominance. With depth that could stretch to five players, including Xavier Williams and Nathan McNeil, the Hawkeyes’ ground game is built to absorb pressure from an uncertain quarterback battle — making this the season’s most underrated offensive weapon.
