Know Thy Opponent 2019: Iowa Hawkeyes

Jeff Brohm has had Iowa’s number. Despite being favored both times Iowa has played Purdue with Brohm, the Boilers have come out with impressive wins each time. Two years ago a banged up Elijah Sindelar with only true freshman Nick Sipe and prayer as his backups went into Iowa City and won thanks to a huge day from Anthony Mahoungou. Last season Purdue blew a fourth quarter lead, but a short field goal from Spencer Evans sealed a third straight home win over a ranked opponent.

Just two weeks before losing at Purdue the Hawkeyes were 6-1 and dreaming of a Division title.
