Iowa football plummets in latest USA TODAY Sports 1-138 Re-Rank

Iowa football dropped quite a ways in the newest USA TODAY Sports 1-138 Re-Rank following its loss to Ohio State.

The Iowa football team experienced a significant decline in the latest USA TODAY Sports 1-138 Re-Rank following a challenging home defeat against Ohio State. The Hawkeyes, led by Kirk Ferentz, suffered from a poor start and a loss to a top-tier opponent, causing their ranking to plummet. This week's re-ranking, released after Week 5 of the college football season, saw Iowa drop eight spots, settling at No. 22.

Their upcoming match against Washington, currently ranked at No. 41, will be crucial for determining the team's future performance. Iowa faces a tough challenge on the road against a formidable opponent, and they must perform well to regain their footing after the recent loss. The top five in the Re-Rank remains unchanged with Georgia, Texas, Notre Dame, Miami, and Ohio State.

Additionally, the Big Ten continues to feature Indiana at No. 8, UCLA at No. 18, Oregon at No. 21, and USC at No. 23. For the latest Iowa news, follow @HawkeyesWire on X (formerly Twitter) and like their Facebook page to stay updated on coverage, notes, and opinions.
