Down Goes Iowa, Down Goes Iowa…

 

For a team that kept flirting with disaster, it finally caught up with No. 4 Iowa. The Hawkeyes lost 17-10 and and just had their BCS Championship chances crushed. This was Northwestern's third straight win at Iowa. This is good news for the SEC, ACC, the Big East and non-BCS teams. Now that Iowa has a loss, the chances of an Alabama-Florida rematch improves and LSU's chances of  making the BCS Championship just got better. If the Tigers beat Alabama and win the rest of the season, the Tigers will jump enough teams to be in discussion for the BCS Championship. If Georgia Tech wins out, the Yellow Jackets could jump Iowa and plenty of other teams to deserve a chance. Boise State and TCU are both smiling now that another undefeated BCS team lost. Don't sleep on No. 5 Cincinnati.
