Iowa at Iowa State Preview & Picks

Iowa State are tipped to cover as they maintain their perfect record.

The Cyclones are off to an impressive start this season, and their more well-rounded offense can be the difference despite coming up against a tough Hawkeyes defense.

  • Iowa State are 2-0-0 ATS through their first 2 games
  • Iowa State are 7-1 in their previous 8 home games
  • The Under has cashed in 14 of the previous 16 meetings

Head To Head

  • Iowa lead the all-time series 47-24
  • Iowa State won 20-19 when the two teams last met in September 2024

Iowa Form

Iowa make the trip to Aimes looking to build on last weekend’s season-opening win over Albany.

The Hawkeyes held the visitors to a solitary touchdown as they ran out 34-7 winners to kick off the campaign.

It was a solid start for a team that is looking to better a 2024 campaign that saw them go 8-4 despite facing just one ranked team.

Iowa began the season in the top 25, but were quickly knocked out of the rankings by a 20-19 home defeat to Iowa State.

The Hawkeyes’ eight wins were enough to earn a bowl invite though, although their appearance in the Music City Bowl ended in a 27-24 defeat to Missouri.

Iowa State Form

Iowa State enter this matchup looking to maintain a strong run of form that has seen them win their first two games of the season.

The Cyclones kicked off the campaign with a 24-21 upset of Kansas State in Dublin, and they backed that up last weekend by blowing out South Dakota in their home opener, 55-7.

It has been a strong opening for a team that is looking to build on a 2024 season that saw them play for the conference championship and win a bowl game.

Iowa State earned their place in the Big 12 Championship with a 10-2 record, but were no match for Arizona State as they were blown out, 45-19.

The Cyclones rallied to wrap up the season on a positive note though, as they beat Miami FL 42-41 in the Pop-Tarts Bowl.

Verdict

Iowa State’s recent record against Iowa is pretty ugly, but they did win last year’s meeting.

The Cyclones are also off to an excellent start this season, so we are backing the hosts to come away with the victory and cover in this latest meeting.
