Iowa plays Purdue at Kinnick Stadium on Saturday
Iowa football plays Purdue at Kinnick Stadium on Saturday, Nov. 14, returning home after a road win against Northwestern in Evanston, Illinois, Hawk Central reported.
The Hawkeyes enter the matchup with a 7-2 overall record and a 4-2 standing in the Big Ten. Last week’s 24-10 victory pushed the team up five spots to No. 15 in both the US LBM coaches poll and the College Football Playoff rankings.
During last week’s win, quarterback Hank Brown completed 16 of 21 passes for 126 yards and rushed for a touchdown on the opening drive. He also threw a touchdown pass to Tony Diaz, while Braeden Jackson returned a kickoff 96 yards for a score.
Purdue arrives in Iowa City with a 3-6 record and a 2-4 mark in conference play. The Boilermakers have lost three consecutive games, most recently falling 34-29 to Maryland, with their conference wins coming against Illinois and Minnesota.
Kickoff is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. CT at Kinnick Stadium. Viewers can watch the game on Fubo.
DraftKings listed betting odds as of Friday, Nov. 13, pegging Iowa as a 17.5-point favorite. The over/under is set at 47.5 points, with a moneyline of -1050 for Iowa and +720 for Purdue.
“Hank Brown DOES top the 300-yard passing mark, with Tony Diaz crossing 100 yards receiving for the first time as a Hawkeye,” said Chad Leistikow, writing for Hawk Central. Leistikow added a second bold prediction: “Iowa scores a defensive touchdown for the first time this season.”
