The first time Iowa and UCLA are set to face off for the first time since 1986. The first time these teams faced off dates back to 1938, with the Bruins winning the first matchup and then the next four. The Hawkeyes got their first win over the Bruins in 1974, and for the last four meetings, these teams have traded wins.

Iowa is coming off a solid win against the Wisconsin Badgers behind backup, but now starting quarterback Brendan Sullivan, but more so the brilliant play of running back Kaleb Johnson. The Bruins have had an up-and-down season, with it being their first season in the Big Ten after leaving the Pac-12.

this should be an exciting matchup as the Hawkeyes will have a long trip that could affect their play, but this game could be one to watch, especially for Iowa.
