Your Michigan State two deeps . . .

There are some changes here, dictated by injury and not discipline from the weekend's shenanigans.

-- Sophomore Andrew Donnal is listed as starting right guard for the second straight week. He started against Minnesota after redshirt freshman Austin Blythe suffered an ankle/foot injury against Central Michigan. Kirk Ferentz said on his TV show last night that Blythe is OK. Maybe it's a matter of him showing a healthy lower leg in practice.

-- The same deal for senior cornerback Greg Castillo, who's listed ahead of junior B.J. Lowery, who also suffered a foot/ankle injury against Central Michigan and missed Minnesota. Ferentz said last night that Lowery is healthy. Probably has to show it in practice beginning Tuesday. This week, both of Iowa's backup CBs are true freshmen, with Kevin Buford joining Draper. Both play in Iowa's dime package, subbing in for linebackers Anthony Hitchens and Christian Kirksey.

-- Sophomore running back Damon Bullock is back after missing two-and-a-half games with a concussion suffered Sept. 15 against Northern Iowa. Before he was hurt, Bullock had 280 yards on 65 carries (4.31 ypc) and one TD. We'll find out how it'll work with sophomore Mark Weisman, who's fourth in the Big Ten with 103 yards a game. Weisman also is tied for third in the conference with seven rushing TDs.

-- Freshman linebacker Cole Fisher is listed in the two deeps for sophomore Marcus Collins, who suffered a leg injury against Central Michigan and missed Minnesota. This will have special teams ramifications, if Collins is unable to play.

-- Senior cornerback Micah Hyde (public intox, interference with official acts) and sophomore tight end Ray Hamilton (underage in a bar after 10 p.m. ticket) are on the two deeps after legal run-ins last weekend. Hyde has started 31 straight games for the Hawkeyes. Hamilton is a No. 2 tight end.

The Big Ten played the 10-day window card for a few Oct. 20 games, but the Hawkeyes are locked in for a 7 p.m. kickoff against Penn State (4-2, 2-0) on the Big Ten Network.

Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz has 99 career victories at Iowa.
