Big Ten power rankings Week 8: Ohio State cruises, Penn State tumbles
The Hawkeyes had the week off following their upset loss to Purdue two weeks ago.
They face Wisconsin this week, in a game that could decide the fate of the West division. If Iowa wants to win that game, they will need to fix their offense, which struggles unless the defense gives them an assist with via turnover.
Iowa got exposed against Purdue, but Wisconsin does not have the passing attack that Purdue does, so that should benefit the Hawkeyes. The game is at Wisconsin though, and their fans know how important this one is.
