Since Nebraska moved to the Big Ten before the 2011 season, the Iowa football team playing the Cornhuskers has become a fixture in Big Ten league play. Unfortunately, this game hasn’t been much of a rivalry in recent years as Iowa owns a 4-1 record over the past five seasons including three wins by greater than twenty points.
It hasn’t always been that way, however, and despite these two teams not being in the same conference until recently, they do have somewhat of a lengthy series history dating back to 1891 when Iowa and Nebraska squared off in their first ever matchup–a matchup that Iowa would win 22-0.
