WHEN: 2:30 PM CT (Saturday, August 7 2024)
WHERE: Kinnick Stadium (Iowa City, IA)
TV: CBS (Brad Nessler, Gary Danielson, Jenny Dell)
RADIO: Hawkeye Radio Network (Gary Dolphin, Pat Angerer, Rob Brooks) | Sirius/XM 83

WEATHER: mostly sunny, highs around 70, minimal wind
LINE: Iowa -2.5 (total of 35.5)
The CyHawk clash is back for its 71st iteration, with both Iowa and Iowa State looking to use a win as a springboard to a big season. Neither team is as highly ranked as they've been in recent seasons (Iowa State isn't ranked at all, though the Cyclones are fourth in the "others receiving votes" category), but both teams appear to have manageable conference schedules this season, which could set them up for exciting Novembers -- if they can avoid any September stumbles.
The recent history of the series has been dominated by Iowa; the Hawkeyes have won eight of the last 10 CyHawk tilts and Kirk Ferentz has a 6-1 record against current ISU head coach Matt Campbell. Campbell does have the most recent win in Kinnick Stadium, though, with his Cyclones emerging on top in a 10-7 defensive slugfest two years ago.
That highlights a somewhat peculiar recent trend in the series: home field hasn't been much of an advantage of late, with the road team winning the last four games in the series (and five of the last six overall). Iowa's win in Iowa City in 2018 was the last time the home team won a game in the series.
Will that matter much on Saturday? Probably not. Iowa's relative lack of success against Iowa State in Iowa City has more to do with a lack of opportunities -- the scheduled 2020 CyHawk game in Iowa City was canceled due to COVID-19, so there's only been one Iowa-Iowa State game at Kinnick Stadium since 2018 -- than evidence of ISU dominance. Only a handful of the Cyclones who beat in 2022 are still a part of this year's team.
