IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) – One of the casualties of the Big Ten’s new divisional format is that it’ll break up Iowa and Wisconsin.
Before the Hawkeyes or Badgers pack away the Heartland Trophy for the next few years, they’ll meet on Saturday with ramifications much more pressing than hardware.
No. 10 Wisconsin (6-1, 2-1 Big Ten) will be looking for a signature road win and wants to show the nation that last week’s 31-18 upset of then-No. 1 Ohio State wasn’t a fluke.
For 13th-ranked Iowa (5-1, 2-0), it’s the first of three home games against the league’s other top contenders – Michigan State, the Buckeyes and the Badgers. The Hawkeyes want to show the rest of the Big Ten that the road to the conference title goes through Kinnick Stadium.
