For the first time since the 2015 season, the Iowa football team is in sole possession of first place in the Big Ten West. I get that this is just a technicality at this point, but after watching this game, I’m not sure it isn’t foreshadowing.
When watching this game, I thought back to what I said to a friend after last year. I wonder what Iowa would look like if they had their standard Iowa defense and just an average offense.
This…wasn’t an average offense. The Iowa football team looked good the second they were outside of the shadow of their own endzone.
