Summary: After a season opening win over Northern Iowa in 1899, the Hawkeyes settled for a 5–5 tie against a strong Chicago team that would go on to win the 1899 Western Conference title with a 12–0–2 record.

Iowa would not yield another point all year, winning their last seven games by a combined score of 194–0.

After playing another season as an independent, Iowa completed its first undefeated football season, which led to an invitation to join the Western Conference, now known as the Big Ten Conference.

Conference: Independent

Head Coach: Alden Knipe
