Iowa safety Kaevon Merriweather credits preparation for the Hawkeyes’ nation-leading 12 interceptions. The third-ranked Hawkeyes have 16 turnovers in all as they prepare to host fourth-rated Penn State.

Merriweather says it is about being in the right position.

Penn State may very well have a chip on the ole coming into Kinnick, after the Hawks jumped over them in the ratings…and one of ESPN’s experts doesn’t even have the Nittany Lions in his top ten.
