Iowa travels to play No. 20 Washington in a college football Week 6 game on Friday, October 9. Quarterback Hank Brown was listed as questionable before the game. Coach Kirk Ferentz made clear to his squad not to count on Brown being available. Iowa has since announced its starter at quarterback.
Washington hosts the matchup as the 20th-ranked Huskies. The unresolved starter question adds a layer of unpredictability to how Iowa plans to move the ball against a ranked team on the road.
