Iowa holds serve at home, and in a big way, routing Indiana by 25.

Hawkeyes have a funky resume, as they are winless in Quad 1, but balance that out with an unblemished 5-0 mark in Q2. The Committee has shown a penchant for very high winning percentages in Q2 for teams who may lack in Q1, so this should not be overlooked.

The resume metrics should be strong enough come tomorrow to have Iowa on the right side of the cutline.

The trip out to LA next week is a huge opportunity to notch a first Q1 (at UCLA), stay unbeaten in Q2 (at a suddenly resurgent USC) and get some road wins on the board (currently 0-2). Winning at least one, if not both, checks quite a few crucial boxes on Fran McCaffrey & Cos. resume.
