What Ohio State coach Ryan Day said in previewing the Iowa game

Ohio State head coach Ryan Day addressed reporters in Columbus on Tuesday to preview his squad's upcoming road matchup against Iowa. Day acknowledged the immense difficulty of playing in Iowa's hostile stadium, especially while preparing younger players for the hostile atmosphere and highlighting the standout play of Jeremiah Smith.

The Buckeyes enter this weekend following a dominant victory over Illinois at home, contrasted with an earlier narrow loss to Texas in the second week of the season. Meanwhile, the ranked Hawkeyes earned a dramatic last-second triumph against Michigan in Ann Arbor.

Both programs are set to clash on Saturday afternoon at 3:30 p.m.
