Week 8 sees the Iowa Hawkeyes back at home inside Kinnick Stadium as their Big Ten slate continues with a matchup under the lights.
Iowa (4-2, 2-1 Big Ten) welcomes Penn State (3-3, 0-3 Big Ten) to Kinnick Stadium, and the storylines are abundant as ever. Penn State shocked the college football world by firing head coach James Franklin and will be operating with an interim head coach.
The Nittany Lions also lost starting quarterback Drew Allar to a season-ending injury and will be starting Ethan Grunkemeyer in Kinnick Stadium and under the lights for his first career start.

Iowa vs. Penn State predictions, picks, odds
Penn State has an interim head coach, a backup quarterback, and has seen its world turned upside down in the last seven days. That can go one of two ways for teams. Some teams will roll over and want to cross the finish line. Other teams will use this moment as a rallying point in their season.
Penn State is filled with veteran leaders, and that locker room likely rallies when they come to Iowa. Don’t expect the Nittany Lions to roll over for Iowa. That said, Iowa knows how big this moment is. The Hawkeyes have a chance to get to 5-2, but more importantly, 3-1, and within striking distance in the Big Ten.
This thing will be a fistfight with the defensive talent on both sides, but Iowa gets the slight advantage of a Phil Parker scheme paired with what should be a raucous Kinnick Stadium, combining to make life hard on Ethan Grunkemeyer. Iowa has found the turnover recipe lately, and this week could be the week they turn one into points. Iowa 20, Penn State 13
