After playing two top 25 opponents to open the season, it was fair to expect some letdown from the #5 Iowa Hawkeyes (3-0, 1-0). While the 30-7 win over Kent State (1-2) didn’t provide much catharsis by way of an offensive explosion, it provided plenty of clarity in its own right.
There’s plenty of sarcasm in Kirk’s six-word tweet - after all, it doesn’t declare Iowa good - there’s truth in it: right now, nobody knows who they are better than Iowa. Sometimes that is all one is hoping for in September.
