Okay, so I wanted to dig into the football history between Penn State and Iowa. You know, get the real story, not just the usual game summaries.

First, I started by just hitting up a general search. Just typed in “Penn State vs Iowa football history.” This gave me a bunch of articles and websites, but mostly surface-level stuff. I wanted more details.
Then, I decided to be more specific. I focused on finding sites with actual game stats. I modified the search like “Penn State Iowa football game results all-time”.
I scrolled through a bunch of pages. Some were okay, some were terrible. I had to really pay attention to which sites looked reliable. Avoided anything that looked like a fan blog with a biased tone.
I looked for sites that listed all the games, year by year. I wanted to see the wins, losses, the scores, and maybe even where the games were played.
I discovered websites and I organized the content in the following:
- The first meeting was in 1930.
- Penn State had a strong winning streak in the 1970s.
- Iowa took more wins in recent matchups.
It was not easy, I spent quite some time doing this, but I finally got what I wanted.
