Iowa junior Ike Boettger says when he was approached about moving from right tackle to left guard his response was “let’s do it”. The Cedar Falls native was part of an a reshuffled offensive line that helped the Hawkeyes rush for 179 yards in a 14-7 victory at Minnesota. Boettger says with the exception of center, the linemen are all interchangeable. (click on the left side of each audio bar to listen)

Boettger feels the offensive line made progress after the changes.

Boettger had not played guard since practice during his redshirt freshman season and was asked this week if he will be there permanently.

Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz says none of the players involved in the changes were against the move.

Ferentz says says they are simply trying to find the right combination to make the offense go.
