Amy Williams+FollowIowa Hawkeyes’ bowl game loyalty stands outNot a single Iowa Hawkeye is sitting out the ReliaQuest Bowl this year, and that’s a rare sight in today’s college football.

While other teams, like Vanderbilt, are missing key players, Iowa’s unity could make all the difference on game day.

Jeffrey Armstrong+FollowIowa hoops: Time to bounce back at CarverAfter a tough stretch, Iowa’s women’s basketball team is looking to reset against Penn State, and the home crowd at Carver-Hawkeye Arena could make all the difference.

With a challenging Big Ten schedule ahead, this matchup is a real chance to build momentum. How do you think Iowa can best turn things around? #Sports #Football #IowaHawkeyes00Share
Michael Pitts+FollowKaden Wetjen’s Hawkeye journey isn’t over yetKaden Wetjen, Iowa’s electric return specialist, just scored an invite to the East-West Shrine Bowl—giving Hawkeye fans at least two more chances to watch him shine before he likely heads to the NFL.

Even though he wasn’t named a consensus All-American, this bowl invite is a big nod to his impact. How do you think Wetjen’s skills will translate to the pros? Will he be the next late-round steal? #Sports #Football #IowaHawkeyes00Share

What do you think—will he deliver a breakout performance? #Sports #Football #IowaHawkeyes00Share

glen25+FollowIowa’s transfer portal price tag: Worth it?Iowa fans, get ready: landing top talent through the transfer portal is about to get expensive.
