Iowa football Week 10 bowl projections: Where could the Hawkeyes be headed?

Following Iowa‘s (6-2, 3-2 Big Ten) dominant 30-0 shutout of Wisconsin (5-3, 3-2 Big Ten) on Oct. 31, which bowl game do college football media outlets currently project the Hawkeyes to play in this year as they enter Week 10?

After the Hawkeyes’ stellar offensive showing against the Badgers and their continued stout defense, Iowa‘s bowl outlook rose significantly, with the media reinvesting hope in the program as they head into the season’s final stretch.

Up next for the Hawkeyes is a trip to Evanston, Ill., to take on the Northwestern Wildcats (6-2, 3-2 Big Ten) at the new Ryan Field on Saturday, Nov. 7. Kickoff is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. CT and will be broadcast on Fox.
