What else are we supposed to do during this dead period?
What that said, since 2010, the Iowa football program has done a remarkable job at besting their rivals. In that span, the Hawkeyes have beaten Iowa State and Minnesota seven times a piece while currently holding 5-game winning streaks over both programs. In addition, the Hawkeyes have found success in the somewhat recently founded Nebraska rivalry, having beaten them six times in nine matchups.

It doesn’t matter the year nor the players nor coaches, for whatever reason, the Wisconsin Badgers always give the Hawkeyes their best shot and since 2010, that best shot has resulted in the Hawkeyes losing seven out of their last eight matchups.
