After a 10-win campaign that included a Big Ten West division championship, there’s reason for optimism entering 2022 for the Iowa Hawkeyes.
Sure, quarterback Spencer Petras and Iowa’s passing offense needs its sorting out, but the defense returns star power that should keep the Hawkeyes in a position to once again be a factor in the Big Ten West and perhaps repeat within the division.
Naturally, the hope is that Iowa progresses enough offensively to where Hawkeye fans can dream bigger than just capturing the Big Ten West. In the meantime, there’s eternal optimism here about how the 2022 season might unfold and what’s in store for the Hawkeyes next season.
With that in mind, fans can now plan accordingly for five dates on Iowa’s 2022 schedule as kickoff times and television designations have been announced for the first three weeks of the season by the Big Ten Network, ESPN and FOX Sports. Several other select dates were unveiled as well.
