The Iowa Hawkeyes never really got things going in the Big Ten Championship game versus Michigan, falling 26-0 to the Wolverines.
It was another occasion where the offense simply couldn’t match a great defensive effort. But, the show goes on for one more game this season where Iowa can pick up a rare 11th win.
“We’re worried about the next game. We have four weeks to get ready for it, give or take, whatever. We’ll find that out tomorrow. That’s our focus,” Iowa head football coach Kirk Ferentz said after the Big Ten title game.
Who will Iowa face, though? That will get finalized this afternoon, but in the meantime, let’s check the pulse nationally to see where everyone is projecting the Hawkeyes and who they think Iowa will be playing.
Let’s take a look at some final bowl projections.
