Previous Season
Behind strong performances by quarterback Brad Banks, who finished second in the Heisman voting, and the Hawkeye rushing defense, which finished fifth-best in the country, Iowa finished 11–2 and shared the Big Ten championship with undefeated Ohio State. Despite losses to Iowa State and Southern California, the Hawkeyes finished with an 8–0 conference record that included wins over Michigan and Penn State. Iowa's lopsided 34–9 victory over Michigan in Ann Arbor was Michigan's worst home loss since 1967. The eleven wins are, to date, an Iowa record for wins in a single season.

Famous quotes containing the words previous and/or season:
“The plot was most interesting. It belonged to no particular age, people, or country, and was perhaps the more delightful on that account, as nobody’s previous information could afford the remotest glimmering of what would ever come of it.”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
“The hour of the waning of love has beset us,
And weary and worn are our sad souls now;
Let us part, ere the season of passion forget us,
With a kiss and a tear on thy drooping brow.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
