Charting Iowa’s Path to the Playoffs
Saturday night, the Iowa Hawkeyes notched their seventh win. With three games to go, and Iowa likely to be favored, maybe heavily favored, in every one of them, it’s time to start thinking about the Hawkeyes’ College Football Playoff possibilities.
While it would be nice to think that a 10-win Big Ten team would be assured of making the Playoffs, the Iowa Hawkeyes are a potential 10-win Big Ten team with no signature victories and one bad loss to a mediocre Minnesota team, not to mention a loss to an Ohio State team that is looking less like a “good” loss by the week.
In short, it’s probable Iowa might need some help to get to the Playoffs.
