The Iowa Hawkeyes suffered a 20-19 last-second loss to the Iowa State Cyclones that stunned everyone. This is the type of loss that can pit a team at a crossroads early in the season.
In a game that Iowa looked like they were going to pull away in, they were all out of sorts in the second half with defensive breakdowns, an anemic offense, and all kinds of uncharacteristic mistakes.
With the loss, the Hawkeyes take a tumble from No. 21 and find themselves on the outside looking in at this week’s US LBM Coaches Poll.
The Iowa State Cyclones have jumped into the poll and are currently ranked No. 23.
