After a disappointing stretch where the Hawkeyes lost in back-to-back weeks at Michigan and at home to Penn State, Iowa has now rattled off two straight wins at home against Purdue and on the road at Northwestern.
That win at Northwestern wasn’t exactly an offensive explosion, but it was enough to cover the spread as Iowa won 20-0. As a refresher, four of the staff has Iowa covering in that matchup while the rest of us had the Wildcats with the points, including BoilerHawk who went with the reverse jinx and took Northwestern outright.
After the win, here’s an updated look at the standings on the year.
