IOWA CITY, Iowa – The UI Athletics Ticket Office announced today that only “singles” – single seats located in each of the four grandstands of historic Kinnick Stadium -- remain available for purchase the unbeaten and nationally ranked Iowa football team’s home game against Big Ten Conference rival Minnesota on Saturday, Nov. 14.
“Our goal is to fill Kinnick Stadium for all three of our remaining games,” said Pam Finke, the UI’s director of ticket operations.
“We have had steady sales this week and it appears the Minnesota game is in good shape, but the pace of sales needs to accelerate if we’re going to reach sellout status for next week against Maryland. We have some of the best fans in the country and we’re confident they’ll rally in appreciation and support for this team.”
Finke said approximately 9,500 tickets are available for Iowa’s game next Saturday, Oct. 31, against Maryland. Kickoff for that game has been set for shortly after 2:30 p.m. More than 15,000 tickets are available for the Hawkeyes’ final appearance in Kinnick on Saturday, Nov. 21, against Purdue. Discount priced youth tickets are available for both of these events.
Tickets to Iowa’s three remaining home games can be purchased online at hawkeyesports.com, over the phone by calling 1-800 IA-HAWKS, or at the UI Athletics Ticket Office in Carver-Hawkeye Arena.
The Hawkeyes have won their first seven games for the first time since 2009 and only the fifth time in school history. That run includes victories in the first two “trophy games” of the 2015 season and a pair of victories over nationally ranked opponents on their home field. Iowa and Alabama are the only teams in the country with two road wins over ranked opponents thus far this season.
Iowa also defeated Pittsburgh in the first of two night games to be played at Kinnick this fall. The Panthers currently lead the Coastal Division of the Atlantic Coast Conference with a 3-0 record and a 5-1 overall mark.
The result of Iowa’s strong start to the season has been recognized in the national polls: The Hawkeyes are ranked 12th in the Associated Press Top 25 – their highest ranking since being ranked ninth on Sept. 12, 2010. Iowa checks in at No. 13 in the USA Today Coaches Top 25.
