Big Ten West

3. Iowa Hawkeyes

The Iowa Hawkeyes are the trendy pick to win the division and maybe the conference this year. I can’t see it.

This is a group that has a lot of players back on offense, but there are questions everywhere, including linebacker, defensive back, wide receiver, and kicker. No way should anyone think that with all of that going on the Hawkeyes should be a favorite to win the West, even if Nebraska and Wisconsin do both have to visit.

The Hawkeyes have a schedule that sets up nicely for a 9 or 10-win season. But not for winning the division. That’s not going to happen.

Not this year at least.
