IOWA CITY— Iowa football hosts its final non-conference game of the season Saturday against in-state foe Northern Iowa.
The Hawkeyes enter the matchup after moving up in both the AP Top 25 and the USA Today LBM coaches poll. The Hawkeyes sit at No. 18 in the AP poll and No. 20 in the coaches poll after a 16-13 win over Iowa State last week.
UNI enters the game 1-1, after going out west and losing to Eastern Washington in Week 1 and defeating Drake last week.
Prediction: Iowa 45, UNI 7… The Hawkeyes overwhelm UNI with their team speed as Tony Diaz and Evan James find the end zone on long touchdown throws, and head coach Kirk Ferentz takes his foot off the gas early in the fourth quarter. By about 6:15 p.m. Saturday, the meat of the season really begins.- Chad Leistikow
