IOWA CITY - Plenty has been made about a young Iowa defensive line, but behind that inexperienced front line is a corps of linebackers ready to pick up the slack for whatever the d-line might lack.

TV9's Scott Saville talked with a few of the Hawkeye linebackers about, among other things, who's the fastest of the group.

Don't forget to watch this coming Monday's edition of "On Iowa Live," where Saville and the Gazette guys welcome Iowa athletic director Gary Barta to the program for a full hour. The program starts at 6:30 p.m. and airs on KCRG 9.2.
