The Iowa Hawkeyes are on the move up in the rankings once again this week following a close win over rival Iowa State.

The Hawkeyes trailed midway through the fourth quarter, but a pair of field goals in the final frame made the difference in a 16-13 home victory.

Kirk Ferentz' team is well thought of after the rivalry win, and the team has officially entered the top 20.
