The Iowa Hawkeyes football team, under coach Kirk Ferentz, had a successful regular season, winning their last two games to secure an eight-and-four record and re-enter the top twenty-five rankings. Their improved offense, led by offensive coordinator Tim Lester, contributed to this success, with significant gains in scoring offense. The addition of transfer quarterback Mark Gronowski brought a fresh dynamic to the team, particularly in red zone rushing and passing game. The Hawkeyes scored forty or more points three times and maintained a strong rushing attack, averaging one hundred seventy-eight yards per game. The defense, led by Phil Parker, also performed excellently, allowing only one hundred fifty-eight passing yards and one hundred twelve rushing yards per game, ranking ninth nationally in points allowed. This overall improvement positions the Hawkeyes as a competitive team in the Big Ten, securing their tenth season with eight or more wins since two thousand fifteen.The Daily News Now! - Every city.
