A second-place finish would ensure a home game in the first round of the playoffs.

BREAKDOWN
Though not mathematically eliminated from playoff contention, Iowa has a lot of work to do to even get back into the conversation. The Barnstormers have gone most of the season without their starting quarterback, Darius-James Peterson, and have had four different players start under center since. With all seven of their games coming against Eastern Conference teams, the Barnstormers' most significant contribution to the postseason might just be to play spoiler in six of those games which come against playoff contenders. They score 40.1 points per game (11th in IFL) and allow 42.9 (14th).
