Within me lies partly a fan of the University of Iowa Hawkeyes football program. In my eyes, the Hawkeyes are a team just clawing near that elite status when it comes to college football in the Big Ten conference. And I can never start off a college football season without blaring and singing the Iowa Hawkeyes fight song which pumps me up for every upcoming season. Their 55-24 beat down on the Ohio State Buckeyes in 2017, as well as their 2019 Holiday Bowl victory over the University of Southern California Trojans are proof this team is no slouch! Both are two of my memorable victories by the Hawkeyes. But how this team did not go undefeated in 2019, I will never understand, but I would hope in 2020 they play with the same chip on their shoulder as they do against their non-conference opponents.

Iowa has been a good team for a long time, They have to prove it, but going to the next level.
I’ll be curious to see what they do this year. They have a tougher schedule. Funny thing about the Hawkeyes is you can predict their season by seeing how they perform against the Iowa State Cyclones.
i think top to bottom the big ten is going to be better this year.
I’m surprised that Iowa lost to Wisconsin and Michigan last season because their talent was pretty much equal last year. The thing that I’ve noticed about Iowa is that if they are not able to out-tough a team, then they lose. It’s never dependent on the record of the other team. It’s all about the trenches with Iowa, which is why they have smoked Illinois and Northwestern for the past decade.
Funny how there are levels in the Big Ten and none of them can keep up with Ohio State.
I see possibly four losses this year, if there is a season.
Yeah, a lot of Iowa’s defense will be picked in the NFL Draft. There better be a college football season because Minnesota is going to be loaded.
I’ll be watching Minnesota. They did let me down last season because I expected them to make it to the Big Ten.
