Iowa will be in search of four in a row in the series against Iowa State when the teams collide in Kinnick Stadium on Saturday.
The Hawkeyes opened with a lopsided win over Northern Illinois. Iowa senior defensive end Parker Hesse talks about the upcoming game.
Sophomore Ihmir Smith-Marsette had the winning touchdown catch in Iowa’s overtime victory in Ames last season.
This will be the opener for ISU which had last week’s game against South Dakota State cancelled after it was halted early in the first quarter. Iowa defensive tackle Sam Brincks is not sure how much of an advantage that will be for the Hawks.
Iowa State quarterback Kyle Kempt led Iowa State to a stunning victory at Oklahoma in his first start last season. He will try to lead the Cyclones to a victory at Iowa on Saturday as ISU looks to snap a three game skid in the series
Kempt says the Cyclones have confidence they can perform in a hostile environment.
Kempt says while they did not get to play their opener just going through a week of game prep will help them.
Kick off is at 4:00 pm at Kinnick Stadium Saturday afternoon.
