Kinnick Stadium(10) — Live from the Press Box updates from Kinnick Stadium.

For one final time in the 2025 season, we are Live from the Press Box at Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City. It’s the Hawkeyes hosting the Michigan State Spartans on Senior Day for the Iowa program. There will be a large group of seniors, 28 in total, honored before the game today.

It’s also a day to pay close attention to the injury report coming out two hours before kickoff. We will have a full rundown of that report, along with the impact of any players who will be missing. Plus we will have any updates leading up to kickoff regarding the two deeps and injuries during the game.
