Iowa Football SHOCKED the college football world by leaping into the top 20 of the first College Football Playoff rankings.
The Hawkeyes were idle last weekend, having their second and final bye week of the 2025-2026 season, and received the best news they could have without winning a game.
Iowa started a three-game winning streak heading into the bye with a dominating 37-0 victory over rival Wisconsin in the battle for the Heartland Trophy.
In their second game of the winning streak, the Hawkeyes faced a tough Penn State squad that was looking to get back on track.
