Since 2017, Iowa is 27-15 in Big Ten games. This includes a 2-7 record vs. Purdue and Northwestern. In this same time frame Iowa is 4-6 vs. Wisconsin, Michigan, OSU and PSU.
KF's legacy is going to be many great wins against top ranked teams but couldn't beat Purdue and Northwestern. Yes, I know we are perfect in the same window against MN, Illinois, Nebraska and ISU too. That part is great. But it's absolutely dumbfounding how Northwestern (back to 2003) and Purdue over many years seem to have Iowa's number.
It's definitely a scheme and philosophy thing for sure. And it hasn't just been Bell. Remember this guy in 2017?
