Kickoff time for Iowa football at Michigan State announced

The Iowa Hawkeyes draw eyes and that is the case with another kickoff time that has just been announced for them this season in Big Ten play.

Iowa is facing the Washington Huskies this weekend at 11 a.m. CT on Fox as part of Big Noon Kickoff. They will follow that time slot up with a primetime slot against the Michigan State Spartans.

The Oct. 19 Big Ten matchup at Michigan State has been announced that it will kickoff at 6:30 p.m. CT on NBC.

The Michigan State Spartans currently sit with a 3-3 record overall but are just 1-2 in Big Ten play as they had back-to-back matchups against Ohio State and Oregon to battle through.

While Iowa plays Washington this weekend, the Spartans are on a bye as they get ready to welcome Iowa to Spartan Stadium for the Big Ten showdown.

These two met last year in a game that was also on NBC in the same time slot. It saw an exhilarating finish. Iowa led 10-9 at halftime, but saw Michigan State score a touchdown to leap in front.

Things were tied up at 16-16 late into the fourth quarter after a couple of Iowa field goals until Cooper DeJean electrified Kinnick Stadium with a 70-yard punt return to put Iowa up for good on the way to a 26-16 victory.

Iowa leads the all-time series against Michigan State 25-22-2. The last 10 matchups have been split evenly with each side taking five games.
