The University of Iowa Hawkeyes recently won 30-7 against Kent State in football and moved on to 3-0 for the season.

This win marked the 300th victory for the Hawkeyes in Kinnick Stadium and is the team’s ninth victory in a row dating back to the 2020 campaign, according to Hawkeye Sports. 

"Game Story: Hawkeyes Wear Down Kent State," Hawkeye Football wrote in a Sept. 20 Twitter post.

Junior Tyler Goodson had a career best game, running for 153 yards and three touchdowns to lead the Hawkeyes to victory.

"We had a pretty good day in the run game," Goodson said, according to Hawkeye Sports. "Kent State had a good defense, but the guys up front did a good job with their assignments and that the running backs had a split second to get upfield. From there it was the running back’s job to take it to the house."

"We have a good offense and we have guys that can make plays," Goodson added. "From this day we have to take the momentum and get better and better throughout the season."

The Hawkeyes have outscored their opponents in the last eight games, 305-113, averaging 33.9 points per game offensively.

Iowa will next return to action Sept. 25 against Colorado State at Kinnick Stadium. The game will be televised on FS1 beginning at 2:30 p.m. (CT).
