Come on down to Buckley’s on QA this Saturday to watch the Hawkeyes host in-state rival Iowa State. Saturday's game will mark the 60th game in the series in which Iowa holds a 39-20 advantage. The Hawkeyes have won 21 of the last 29 meetings, including three of the last four, four of the last six and six of the last nine. Iowa has also won the last four meetings against Iowa City.  Both the Hawks & Clones are coming off Week 1 performances where they had to come from behind to win the game.
