The uniforms feature black pants without vertical gold stripes, with potential gray accents on numbering or helmet decals. Iowa holds a 9-1 all-time record when wearing these specific alternate sets. Conversely, Iowa State intends to wear all-white uniforms for the game, marking the first time the team has done so against Iowa since 2012.
