Iowa’s 45-year drought in January bowl games is over.
With Fred Russell running for 150 yards and one touchdown, the 13th-ranked Hawkeyes dominated No. 17 Florida 37-17 in the Outback Bowl on Thursday.
Nathan Chandler threw for one TD and ran for another as Iowa (10-3) finished with double-digit wins in consecutive years for the first time in history. The loss dropped Florida to 8-5 and is almost certain to start another round of speculation about Ron Zook’s future as coach.
