Mark Gronowski was unlike anything else we’ve seen at the quarterback position in Iowa City. While he showed plenty of ability throwing the ball in his days at South Dakota State, the fifth year senior really shined for the Hawkeyes as a runner, adding a new dynamic to […] Tue, 09 Jun 2026 22:34:11 GMT JPinIC https://sportspyder.com/cf/iowa-hawkeyes-football/articles/56898803 https://sportspyder.com/cf/iowa-hawkeyes-football/articles/56898803 false false Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NCAA.

On paper, a perfectly nice season. Look under the paper, though, and 2025 was one of the more statistically bizarre Iowa football seasons in recent memory: an offensive line that may […] Wed, 06 May 2026 16:09:32 GMT JPinIC https://sportspyder.com/cf/iowa-hawkeyes-football/articles/56530318 https://sportspyder.com/cf/iowa-hawkeyes-football/articles/56530318 false false Football season is over and football season is six months away. So while the rest of the Iowa sports calendar settles into spring break mode, our attention naturally turns to the diamond. Rick Heller’s Hawkeyes are 28-18 overall, 12-12 in the Big Ten, and right at the inflection point where the next two weekends decide […] Tue, 05 May 2026 16:22:57 GMT JPinIC https://sportspyder.com/cf/iowa-hawkeyes-football/articles/56518459 https://sportspyder.com/cf/iowa-hawkeyes-football/articles/56518459 false false Welcome to Relive the Moment, our offseason series where we crack open the tape on some of the most memorable games in Iowa Hawkeye history.

The two year stack for the program is 12, most recently matched by the 2010, 2011, and 2012 draft classes when six Hawks were taken each year. Unlike that stretch of seasons, Iowa was unable to capitalize on the same […] Fri, 01 May 2026 11:31:29 GMT Harrison Starr https://sportspyder.com/cf/iowa-hawkeyes-football/articles/56475235 https://sportspyder.com/cf/iowa-hawkeyes-football/articles/56475235 false false Seven. Seven Hawkeyes. We have spent more drafts than we care to remember sweating out late-Saturday phone calls wondering if Iowa would squeeze in a kicker before midnight to keep the streak alive.
