6-6 down the pike?

could such a colossal collapse occur? Finishing with two huge duds against some of the worst in the conf?

I think Iowa will win their next two games, and probably lose in their bowl game. Nebraska seems to be coming on at the end of the season so they might give them a pretty good game.

We split the last two but Illinois is no gimme.

The problem is it looks like Ferentz has lost the team a la 2006, 2007, 2010, 20xx, etc. And Illinois and Nebraska both certainly view this as a winnable game in which they'll throw everything they have at Iowa. When a team is rebuilding, Iowa is the first "target" and it leads to absolutely ugly losses, like all the losses to Northwestern and those losses to Minnesota when the Gophers were in total shambles.
