When is having a "great week of practice" going to show up on the football field?

Hawkeye football is reeling after back-to-back losses against ranked opponents where they could have won the game.

Last weekend against Oregon, Iowa held a slim lead with under two minutes to go and could not hold on to win.

This weekend against USC, the Hawkeyes held a two-score lead at halftime (21-10) and let USC score 16 unanswered points to win the game.

After back-to-back losses against ranked opponents where the Hawkeyes could have won, it leaves us with more questions than answers.

Throughout the week leading up to each of the last two games, quarterback Mark Gronowski and Head Coach Kirk Ferentz were adamant that the squad had a great week of practice, but we have not seen that in the games.
