The Iowa Hawkeyes ended the regular season with an overall record of 8-4 after closing out the season with two wins in a row and will have a chance to collect their ninth win of the season in a postseason bowl.
Where that bowl is remains unknown, as conference championships across the country will be taking place this Friday and Saturday, which will carry implications for the College Football Playoff and what teams are sent to what bowl.
For the Hawkeyes, the bowl picture is starting to become clearer with a few destinations really coming into focus. Iowa can expect to draw a fun opponent, as the majority of bowl projections are pitting the Hawkeyes against a Power Four school, likely from the SEC or Big 12.
