They had 6 games minimum where they probably should have lost. they happen to win everyone of them.
We will see if that luck continues.

If I didn't have to deal with the UI fans that I know then I would proably go for them. But since I do then Sorry Hawks.
I guess I need better friends.
No way that is accurate. Iowa was up by 10 points against Arkansas St. when they scored a TD with a minute left. Iowa then recovered the onside kick to seal it. Iowa was up by 9 points against Michigan with like 4 minutes left and then gave them the ball back with about 1:30 left. Iowa then intercepted a pass to seal it. Iowa dominated Wisconsin in the second half of that game and won by 10.
I will give you MSU, Indiana, and UNI though. I have Iowa going 10-2 this year, with them going 12-0 if they catch every break and 8-4 if they don't.
I know one thing. Put your mortgage and your parents mortgage on Iowa losing (or at the very least covering the spread) at Northwestern. That is a lead pipe lock.
Why isnt anyone talking about Penn State beating them? I Say they lose to Wisky, Penn State and Ohio State. With possibilities of Arizona and Northwestern too. AND they have to play Michigan in the Big House.
PSU isn't very good. no chance.
I got $100 on the Hawks over 8.5 wins. I love my chances but it would be cool to see them only win 8 games. Worth every penny.
Here's how i look at it:
