IOWA CITY — All seven Iowa football home games are sold out, Iowa Athletics announced Wednesday afternoon. It is the first sold-out season for the Hawkeyes since 2011.

The Nov. 25 game against Nebraska — the day after Thanksgiving — was the final game to sell out.

The Hawkeyes also sold out three of their last four home games of 2021, so they will have a stretch of 10 sellouts at Kinnick in 11 games.

The sellout excludes “a limited number of hospitality ticket packages,” according to a news release. Iowa already sold out its season tickets, student tickets, mini plans and Fight for Iowa passes for 2022.
