Just wondering if you will be revising your 12-0 prediction (sorry guy, I guess you're human just like the rest of us).

I would be interested in knowing what you're thinking regarding Iowa's won loss record going into Big Ten play.

I'm sticking with 10-2.

No, I will not revise it. Iowa is going to go 12-0

The chances of that happening were not good to start with. But I have never before felt Iowa could beat every team on its schedule, so I took a shot. My prediction matters just as much as yours and everybody else in that it doesn't matter at all to actual outcomes.

I suspect I will be wrong about something again before I retire

I think they will go into the bye week 4-1. After that, I'll look at the lay of the land. Once the season starts, preseason predictions are even more meaningless, because you have to factor in week to week injuries and the like.
