## Resource

Iowa’s 2026 season promises chaos at QB with three potential starters, but offensive coordinator Tim Lester’s third year brings stability and a proven run-first identity. With a deep backfield and a dominant line, the Hawkeyes could dominate early games—giving freshmen like Tradon Bessinger a chance to shine. While scoring may dip slightly to 24-25 points per game, Lester’s clock-control strategy could be the key to wins, blending power running with disciplined execution.
