There were plenty of narratives entering Wednesday's ReliaQuest Bowl.
Iowa hadn't won a game against a ranked opponent in over four years. Vanderbilt felt they were robbed of a College Football Playoff spot and were out to prove the doubters wrong. And the age-old conference debate between the Big Ten and SEC would get another chapter added to it.

The Hawkeyes walked into Tampa and took care of business for themselves and the Big Ten with a thrilling 34-27 win in this year's ReliaQuest Bowl. The offense was electric, answering every Vanderbilt score in the second half. And Iowa's defense made some huge plays in the first half, holding the Commodores to three points. It all added up to an entertaining win to end the season for Hawkeye fans.
It also made for a celebratory mood on social media afterwards. Fans, media members, and even the Hawkeyes themselves had some fun on social media after the win.
