After two straight wins the Iowa Hawkeyes get ready for Friday night’s game at Big Ten newcomer UCLA. Quarterback Brendan Sullivan has ignitied lopsided wins over Northwestern and Wisconsin after a subpar effort in a loss at Michigan State.
That’s Hawkeye coach Kirk Ferentz. With Cade McNamara still sidelined Jackson Stratton will be the backup quarterback this week. The Colorado State transfer stepped into that role after Marco Lainez (lie-nez) was injured in practice last week.
Stratton appeared in four games for Colorado State in 2022.
Iowa has not won a game in Pasadena since a victory over California in the 1959 Rose Bowl and none of the games since have been close.
