Jay Higgins discusses the loss to Michigan State.

It there is one thing that Iowa fans can usually count on every Saturday it’s rock solid defense. But, that was lacking on Saturday in the 32-20 loss to Michigan State in East Lansing. The Hawkeye defense struggled with their tackling and in pass coverage, giving up a season high 468 yards of total offense to a Michigan State team that had been inconsistent most of the season.

Following the loss we visited with Jay Higgins and Xavier Nwankpa to get their thoughts on why the group struggled so much in both of those areas.
