The Heartland Trophy will head back to Iowa for the first time since 2015 as No. 25 Wisconsin fell in Iowa City, 28-7, Saturday inside Kinnick Stadium.
Despite missing key skill players, UW (2-3) still had opportunities to put points on the board. Unfortunately, it floundered those chances. On the flip side, the Wisconsin defense mostly halted the offense of Iowa (6-2) but gave up some key plays in the second half.
BadgerBlitz.com once again brings you instant position-by-position grades as Wisconsin has fallen under .500 in this abbreviated 2020 campaign.
OFFENSE: D
As a group, once again the team scored under double-digits in points. Though facing a very potent Iowa defense, it gained just 225 total yards, averaged just 3.2 yards per play and converted just 4-of-18 third downs.
Without contributors at wide receiver - Danny Davis and Kendric Pryor - and running back - Jalen Berger and Isaac Guerendo- the group still had chances to put the ball across the end zone on Saturday afternoon. It just did not execute.
