It's Senior Day. The crowd should be jacked. The players should remember what went down last time these two teams played. I do not expect any love lost between the Hawks and Lions.

I'm on the road today, so I am not going into depth in this prediction/preview. But I will say this, I like Iowa in this one and I like them big. I haven't been able to say that about this team since The Citadel game. PSU is a decent team, but I really like the matchup today.

TODAY'S PROJECTED HAWKEYE KILLER: None. Iowa is going to shut down the Lions, especially Talor Battle.

PREDICTION:
Iowa - 69
Penn State - 56
