Eyeing a rebound after a tough loss to Oregon in Week 11, Iowa football heads to USC for a 2:30 p.m. CT showdown inside the LA Memorial Coliseum. BTN will televise the Nov. 15 affair.

The Hawkeyes (6-3, 4-2 Big Ten Conference) had Oregon on the ropes before suffering an 18-16 loss at the horn that snapped a three-game winning streak. Iowa hasn’t faced the Trojans since routing them in the 2019 Holiday Bowl.

Meanwhile, USC (7-2, 4-1) is looking to remain in the College Football Playoff discussion with a win. The Trojans have toppled Nebraska and Northwestern since their last loss to Notre Dame on Oct. 18.

Here’s how to watch Saturday’s game.

Iowa, trying to break a 0-12 run against ranked opponents, will rush for nearly 200 yards but won’t be able to force the two or three big turnovers that will be required to pull off the upset. — Des Moines Register’s Chad Leistikow (full prediction column)
