In what will be the final Big Ten divisional crossover game for the Iowa Hawkeyes in 2023, the Rutgers Scarlet Knights come to Kinnick Stadium on Saturday, Nov. 11. This will also be Iowa’s final crossover game in the current configuration of the Big Ten; East and West divisions go to the wayside next year with the new-look conference.
Iowa welcomes the Scarlet Knights in for a mid-afternoon kickoff inside Kinnick. Kickoff time will be at 2:30 p.m. CT and is going to be able to be viewed on the Big Ten Network.

The game will be Iowa’s annual Military Appreciation Game. This game has become a tradition for Iowa. The Hawkeyes often ditch the yellow Tigerhawk logo in favor of one decked out in the American flag.
What many may have viewed as a bit of a dud just a few years ago has morphed itself into a matchup of two teams already bowl-eligible just eight games into the season. Iowa and Rutgers each carry a 6-2 record at the moment.
Iowa heads to Wrigley Field to take on Northwestern prior to Rutgers coming to town. The Scarlet Knights have a much more daunting task of hosting the Ohio State Buckeyes this weekend.
