The Hawkeyes host Montana on Saturday for their season opener at Kinnick Stadium. Iowa will have two starters sit out this game due to breaking team rules. I don’t think that will hurt Iowa chances on winning the game. Montana starting RB is a former Cyclone player. This is going to be a tune up game before Iowa starts Big Ten Conference play.
Iowa hosts #1 Ohio State in 3 weeks at Kinnick. That will be a huge win for Iowa if they can beat them.
