Iowa opens the season Saturday at home against South Dakota State. The Hawkeyes have a lot of key players returning from last year’s 10-4 team.

That’s Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz who says a key for any team is handling adversity.

Ferentz says even with a large number of starters returning the Hawkeyes have question marks.

Tune in for the game today on KJAN. Pregame is 9:00 a.m. and Kickoff is set for 11:00 a.m. We’ll have it on the Hawkeye Radio Network.
