Hey Hawkeyes, most 11-0 teams get to 12-0

All right, Iowa, you're 11-0 in football. That's new stuff. How do teams handle being 11-0?

Well, of the 12 FBS teams this decade that took 11-0 records into their final regular-season games, 10 were winners. One of the two losers was beaten on a return of a missed field goal for one of the most-memorable finishes in college football history. The other was a 67-66 game in overtime.
