IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) – Iowa has won at Iowa State just once since 2003 – even though the Hawkeyes have been favored each time. Iowa is the favorite again in Saturday’s in-state showdown after Iowa State (0-1) played poorly in its season-opening loss to Northern Iowa. Iowa (1-1) lost to Northern Illinois and beat Missouri State of the Championship Subdivision.

If the last decade is any indication, the game could end up being another entertaining but mistake-filled spectacle between two rivals desperate for a win before conference play begins. Listen to the game on AM-1220 and FM 101.1 KJAN Saturday, beginning with pre-game coverage at 3-p.m. , and the kick-off at 5.
