Floyd stays home for another year as Iowa goes to frosty Kinnick North and takes care of business on an extra cold day in Minneapolis by beating the Gophers 13-10. The guys break down that result, focus on a couple of stars (one regular on second down and a 2022 newcomer to praise), wonder what happened to a phase on defense that is usually a strength, and start thinking seriously about potentially winning the B1G West. Only Nebraska stands in the Hawkeyes' way to back-to-back B1G West championships (and a date against a B1G blue blood in which Iowa would likely be 20+ point underdogs).
