Iowa took a step back last season, going just 7-5 in the regular season. The Hawkeyes failed to take advantage of not having to play Penn State in 2022, and lost three straight in October, including a 9-6 snoozer in Champaign, and a 54-10 thrashing in Columbus. They managed to right the ship towards the end of the year, winning three out of their last four regular season games, and then shutting out Kentucky in the Music City Bowl. Quarterback play was a significant concern, with Spencer Petras throwing for just over 1700 yards and as many touchdowns as interceptions.
