Iowa vs Iowa State: What should we expect out of this game?

The Iowa Hawkeyes vs Iowa State Cyclones game is going to have incredible viewership, being the big game for this window of college football.

The Hawkeyes are 1-0, coming off a 24-14 home win over the Utah State Aggies. Senior quarterback Cade McNamara had a solid game, finishing 17-of-30 for 191 yards with a pair of touchdowns.

The defense did its job, as they held Utah State to just 5-of-17 on third down attempts and 1-of-3 on fourth down opportunities. They do need to improve, as they allowed the Aggies to run for 4.8 yards per rushing attempt. This performance had them drop out of the AP Poll Top 25, and they're unranked in this Iowa rivalry.

The Iowa State Cyclones, meanwhile, also kicked off the season with a 1-0 record, as they racked up a 30-9 home non-conference win over the Northern Iowa Panthers. Freshman quarterback Rocco Becht did well in limited action, going 10-of-13 for 113 yards with a pair of touchdown passes while also running twice for 10 yards and a rushing touchdown.

Their defense showed up as well, forcing a pair of interceptions. The Cyclones did well defensively on the money downs, as the Panthers were 3-of-15 on third down tries but 2-of-3 on fourth down attempts.

This game should be very close with limited scoring, but expect the Hawkeyes to walk away victorious.
