Iowa Hawkeyes football's schedule in 2024 made transitioning to an expanded Big Ten manageable. But the training wheels are likely to come off in 2025

The 2025 Iowa Hawkeyes football schedule features a mix of Big Ten conference games and non-conference matchups. The season kicks off with a non-conference game against Florida Atlantic on August 30, followed by home games against Massachusetts and Iowa State. The Big Ten schedule includes home games against Michigan State, Nebraska, Ohio State, and Purdue, with road trips to Illinois, Maryland, Northwestern, and Wisconsin.
