Seth Anderson ruled out for Iowa vs. Iowa State

It was a tough break to not see Anderson ready to go for the Cy-Hawk rivalry. A game which head coach Kirk Ferentz believes is under-appreciated.

“This game, obviously, is a big, big game,” Ferentz said. “It’s a rivalry game. Certainly, it’s been intense for a long time. It’s my 34th experience. I’ve seen a lot of different things throughout the course of that time. But bottom line is it’s just a good game for our state. It’s good for everybody if they’re involved in football and like football.

“On top of it, I think it’s probably a little bit underappreciated outside of our state in terms of the intensity of the rivalry and the way the players go after it each and every time. It’s really a good football game.”

Last year, Iowa came away with a 20-13 win over Iowa State in the Cy-Hawk game. Jaziun Patterson led the charge for the Hawkeyes as he totaled 81 yards and a touchdown, and a Sebastian Castro pick-six helped them come away with the rivalry victory.
