Honestly much closer to what I expected to see last week. QB9 played his best game by far at Iowa & the Iowa D suffocated the WISC O. Last week looked like a bottom dweller, back to looking like a playoff caliber team today— Hawkeye Gamefilm (@hawkeyegamefilm) October 31, 2026The bull isn’t going anywhere.

Credit to Ferentz for having this team ready and focused. Great team win in…— Hawkeye Rewinds (@HawkeyeRewinds) October 31, 2026Iowa 30, Wisconsin 0 In Luke Fickell's tenure, Iowa has outscored Wisconsin by 108 points. This is first time the Hawkeyes have ever blanked the #Badgers in back-to-back years.— Zach Heilprin (@ZachHeilprin) October 31, 2026Only iowa can beat a team by 30 and still hit the under— Lucy Rohden (@lucy_rohden) October 31, 2026Go Hawks!!! https://t.co/Dm9HyISe3g— Ettore “Big E” Ewen (@WWEBigE) October 31, 2026HEARTLAND TROPHY GOES TO IOWA CITY https://t.co/3Nvbp5FbTv— Sickos Committee (@SickosCommittee) October 31, 2026I will love Kirk Ferentz forever.

But we look like we suck. So maybe we suck? This I do know… Iowa OWNS Wisconsin. The Badgers keep saying they have this game circled and never show up.— Ben Brust (@BenBrust) October 31, 2026He is the best receiver Iowa has had in 15 years. Has every opportunity to have 1,000+ yards in a single season sometime during his Hawkeye career.
