No. 19 Iowa secured a 24-10 victory over Northwestern on November 7, 2026, at Ryan Field in Evanston, Illinois. The Hawkeyes' win marked another conference triumph in the Big Ten season.
Northwestern quarterback Nicco Marchiol, wearing number 4, led the Wildcats' offense but could not overcome the ranked Iowa squad. The game was played under typical late-autumn conditions at the historic lakeside venue.
The result continues Iowa's strong campaign while Northwestern searches for momentum in the latter portion of their schedule. Both teams remain focused on upcoming conference matchups as the regular season progresses.
