Halfway through the 2018 football season, the Iowa Hawkeyes have displayed the potential to greatly exceed the expectations that many fans and national observers originally had for them. With yet another top-20 defense and a rejuvenated offensive attack propelled by Nate Stanley’s extraordinary passing output, the 2018 Hawkeyes have the makings of a team capable of putting together a truly special season. Still, Iowa’s schedule is littered with potential landmines; Penn State stands as the biggest remaining challenge, but nearly every conference opponent left on Iowa’s schedule is capable of defeating the Hawkeyes if fortune smiles on them on any given day.
