## Resource

Iowa’s 2026 season kicks off with a brutal three-game gauntlet—road trips to Michigan and Washington, then hosting Ohio State—all within weeks, dubbed the second-toughest stretch in college football. Facing offensive struggles and grueling travel, head coach Kirk Ferentz must rely on his legendary resilience to survive this early gauntlet and set the tone for a season where the second half offers more breathing room.
