Kind of easy to look good against that kind of opposition eh?
The other part of it was because Iowa head coach Kirk Ferentz was once coached by Sanders' high school asst coach (the legendary Notre Dame and Pitt O-line coach Joe Moore)
Interestingly enough, besides Sanders, a pair of other future All-Big 10 players from that same Pennsylvania high school ended up playing for Ferentz at Iowa as well.
