Iowa Hawkeyes at Iowa State Cyclones Overview<br />
</h2>
<p>
One of the fiercest rivalries that is often less spoken about is the Battle for the Cy-Hawk Trophy. Very simply, Iowa and Iowa State love to hate each other. As mentioned, the previous six meetings between both parties has resulted in each team emerging victorious in three of those occasions. With the Iowa victory in 2016, an emerging trend had been ended as the away team had won the last five meetings previous to this. Both teams come in off easy wins. However, the quality of opponents were far contrasting. For the Hawkeyes, the Black and Yellow had their way with the visiting Wyoming Cowboys holding a renowned potent offense to just a field goal in route to a 24-3 victory. For the Cyclones, they come in off a 42-24 victory against an intrastate FCS foe in Northern Iowa.

Iowa Hawkeyes at Iowa State Cyclones Week 2 Game Prediction

Iowa’s defense has to feel extraordinarily confident after what it had achieved on opening weekend. Wyoming features a NFL prospect quarterback that has positioned on some mock draft boards that has him listed as high as a top-five selection. However, Josh Allen looked confused and imperiled against the Hawkeye defense as they held him to 174 yards through the air while picking him off two times. While Iowa State has the potential to be a very effective and prolific offense in its own right, it will be tested vigorously. The Cyclones averaged 421.6 yards of total offense while scoring 27.7 points per game. Against Iowa last year, they were held to just a field goal and 291 yards. Additionally, if Iowa State wants to have any chance at competing in this contest their defense will have to tune up. Last year, the Clones gave away 31.3 points per game and as a result they finished 3-9. While home field advantage of this market, Iowa will pay no mind to where this game is taking place. Once again, the Black and Yellow should retain the Cy-Hawk trophy will little opposition from the Cyclones.
