The Iowa–Iowa State football rivalry is an American college football rivalry between the Iowa Hawkeyes football team of the University of Iowa and Iowa State Cyclones football team of Iowa State University. The Cy-Hawk Trophy is awarded to the winner of the game. Conceived and created as a traveling trophy by the Greater Des Moines Athletic Club in 1976, the trophy was first presented to the winner by Iowa Governor Robert D. Ray in 1977. That game was the first meeting between the two since 1934.
