Updated bowl projections for the Iowa Hawkeyes after Week 7
With the most recent win, the Iowa Hawkeyes are bowl eligible with a 6-1 record. Iowa hit the six-win mark in just seven games and did so against the odds given to it by many.
The 15-6 win over Wisconsin put Iowa in the driver’s seat of the Big Ten West and set it up for an upper-tier bowl game.
As the college football season gets ready to enter its final stretch, some trends are appearing for the Hawkeyes. The bowl projections seem to be growing fond of the Hawkeyes headed south to a bowl they went to not all that long ago. One intriguing matchup pits them against a team from the Pac-12 that might just be their carbon copy of stingy defense and physical football.
Here is a look at the bowl projection roundup for the Iowa Hawkeyes following the conclusion of Week 7.
