The Iowa football team is set to face the Minnesota Gophers Saturday at 230 PM (CST) at TCF Bank Stadium in the 112th matchup of these two universities. Not so surprisingly, this is Iowa’s longest tenured rivalry, right in front of Wisconsin, which Iowa suffered a loss to a little over a week ago. The winner of this rivalry game stakes claim to the Floyd of Rosedale, a beautiful bronze pig.
Both teams enter this October 6th matchup with 3-1 records, which we will highlight later in the week, but today we wanted to focus on the history of this matchup.
