As I've mentioned multiple times over the years and throughout this season, the Iowa State game tends to serve as a guide to how the season will ultimately play out from a wins and losses standpoint.

However, Iowa's 21-0 victory over Kentucky earned the Hawks its 8th win of the season, which marks the first time since 2002 that an Iowa team that lost to Iowa State finished with MORE than 7 wins, which also makes it just the second time that has happened in the KF era.

A roller coaster season comes to a close with an unconventional victory that bucks a well-established, albeit very odd, trend.

Of course, I would prefer the other side of that stat where a win over ISU all but guarantees an 8+ win season..... ;)
