Iowa football: Predicting Hawks fall in AP Poll after Michigan loss

Had the Iowa football team come out and won yesterday, I truly thought they would have a chance at a top-10 ranking or if nothing else an opportunity to continue their slow progression towards it.

That is certainly not happening though when the AP Poll does officially drop for week 7. Not after that performance in Ann Arbor.

But how far will they actually drop?

Typically, it depends on two things. First, how bad does the loss itself look to the eyes of the voters, and in this instance, how much do the voters value Michigan and playing in Michigan Stadium.
