NC State and Iowa have met three times and it seems like the Wolfpack has the Hawkeyes number. Iowa is 0-3 against NC State, but they haven't met for almost 30 years. With the proximity of these schools, you would think there would be more meetings, but they have only met twice in the regular season and once in a bowl game.
The first matchup came in 1965 when NC State and Iowa met in the final game of the season, and the Wolfpack helped the Hawkeyes by bringing an end to their season. The Hawkeyes finished that season 1-9 and on an eight-game losing streak.
The second matchup was in a bowl game, the Peach Bowl to be specific. Iowa ended the season 6-4-3 after the loss to NC State, they lost the bowl game 28-23 in what was a close matchup.
The final matchup came in 1992 when instead of NC State and Iowa ending the season, they started each other's seasons. NC State handed Iowa a loss to open their season and the Hawkeyes finished the season 5-7.
