Iowa-Penn St. Kicking Off at Night
IOWA CITY, Iowa – The Iowa football team will open 2023 Big Ten Conference action in prime time, as the Sept. 23 contest at Penn State will kickoff at 7 p.m. CT on CBS.
The Saturday night contest is the first known game time for the Hawkeyes in 2023. Iowa opens the season at home on Saturday, Sept. 2, hosting Utah State. Iowa’s first conference home game is Sept. 30 when the Hawkeyes host Michigan State.
The Hawkeyes posted an 8-5 record in 2022, winning five of their final six games, including a 21-0 shutout win over Kentucky in the TransPerfect Music City Bowl.
Iowa and Penn State did not play in 2022. The Hawkeyes have won the last two meetings, including a 23-20 win in Kinnick Stadium over the fourth-ranked Nittany Lions in 2021 and a 41-21 win in 2020 in their last visit to Penn State.
Start times for Iowa’s first three games and Homecoming are expected to be announced later this spring. Remaining start times will be announced six or 12 days in advance of each game.
