Iowa will be 9-3: We have a pretty easy schedule set up. We don't play a "TRUE" road game until our 6th game of the season. We play at IU, NW, Michigan, and Michigan St. on the road. I know JVB will have a year under his belt, but with our road woes, I believe we drop 2 of the 4 road games, with the possibility of all 4 road games. I believe we beat NW & IU on the road.
We get Penn State, Nebby, Minny, and Purdue at home. I see us losing to Michigan, MSU, and Nebby. I think we handle the rest of the teams. we will have an experienced QB back, we will have a RB (1st time in 3 years we are returning a starting runningback.) Plus I look for our defense to be better, I think the coaches will get the players turned around and get it going.
ISU will be 6-6
