The No. 16 Iowa Hawkeyes hit the Under in the Over/Under for the sixth consecutive college football game on Saturday.

But the most important thing for the Hawkeyes is they're going to play in the Big Ten Conference championship game.

Iowa clinched the Big Ten West Division with a 15-13 home victory over the Illinois Fighting Illini.

The Hawkeyes improved to 6-2 in conference, 9-2 overall.

The Over/Under for both teams combined was 33.5 points.

Despite the offensive struggles, the Hawkeyes have won six of their past seven games and will face either No. 2 Ohio State or No. 3 Michigan in the Big Ten Conference championship game in Indianapolis on Dec. 2.

The Hawkeyes, who punted on six consecutive possessions against the Illini, have hit the Under nine times in 11 games this season.

The Hawkeyes last hit the Over on Sept. 30, a 26-16 win over Michigan State. That O/U was 36.5.
