IOWA CITY — Iowa’s home football games against Michigan and Iowa      State are sold out, as is its 8,200 student season-ticket      allotment, the school announced Friday.
    
With the sellout status, Iowa’s athletics department will stop      selling season tickets and three-game ticket packages. Single-game      tickets remain for the remaining five contests.
    
After a few years of struggling to fill the Kinnick Stadium      student section, Athletics Director Gary Barta said the student      sellout status represented a 35 percent boost over 2015. 
    
“Student attendance plays a key role in the atmosphere within      Kinnick Stadium on game day,” Barta said in a statement. “And, we      want our students to enjoy the experience and become Hawkeye fans      for life.”
    
Both games against Iowa State (Sept. 10) and Michigan (Nov. 12)      are held at night. Iowa has less than 2,500 tickets available for      home dates against border rival Wisconsin (Oct. 22) and five-time      FCS champion North Dakota State (Sept. 17). The Hawkeyes open      against Miami (Ohio) on Sept. 3. Other home games include      Northwestern (Oct. 1) and Nebraska (Nov. 25).
    
The Hawkeyes finished last year with a 12-2 overall record and      won the Big Ten West Division championship. Iowa’s only sellout      was against Minnesota on Nov. 14.
    
Iowa has relaxed postgame tailgating time limits for day games      but not for the two night games. The university also will      implement a clear-bag policy for 12 inches by 6 inches by 12      inches.
