2019-2020 Iowa Football Year in Review

Kirk Ferentz entered his 21st season as head coach, surpassing his predecessor, Hayden Fry. Iowa began the year with four straight wins, including an 18-17 road victory (plaqued by weather delays) over rival Iowa State with College GameDay present. After losing games to three ranked opponents - at No. 19 Michigan (3-10), No. 10 Penn State (12-17), at No. 13 Wisconsin (22-24) - by a total of 14 points, the Hawkeyes knocked off another rival, unbeaten No. 8 Minnesota, 23-19, to start a four-game win streak to close the season. After long-time athletic director Bump Elliott and legendary head coach Hayden Fry passed away in December, Iowa capped the 2019 season with a resounding 49-24 win over No. 22 USC in the Holiday Bowl. The Hawkeyes finished with a record of 10-3 (6-3 B1G), the sixth season with 10+ wins in the Ferentz era.

San Diego County Credit Union Holiday Bowl (San Diego, CA)

#16 Iowa vs #22 USC

W 49 - 24

Head Coach: Kirk Ferentz

Iowa's Ihmir Smith-Marsette scored on a 6-yard run, a 98-yard kickoff return and a 12-yard reception -- all in the second quarter -- to lead Iowa to a 49-24 rout of No. 22 USC. The Hawkeyes won their fourth straight game for their sixth 10-win season in coach Kirk Ferentz's 21 years. The Hawkeyes honored both Hayden Fry, the former coach who died Dec. 17 at age 90, and Bump Elliott, a former athletic director who died Dec. 7 at 94. Senior Nate Stanley became the fifth Iowa quarterback to start three bowl games. He won all three. Against USC, he was 18 of 27 for 213 yards with 2 touchdown passes. There was a moment of silence before the national anthem for Fry. Iowa also paid tribute to Fry by removing the Tigerhawk decals from its helmets. Fry introduced the logo during his 20-year tenure, which included trips to the Holiday Bowl in 1986, 1987 and 1991.
