STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) - Michigan State and Iowa will return to Penn State's Big Ten football schedule in 2015-16.

The Hawkeyes visit Beaver Stadium on Nov. 7, 2015, according to schedules announced Monday by the league. Iowa rotates off Penn State's schedule in 2013 and 2014 after the teams meet this fall in Iowa City.

The Nittany Lions visit the Spartans on Nov. 14, 2015. It would be the first meeting between the two schools since the 2010 season.

Penn State would then travel to Iowa and host Michigan State in 2016.

The Big Ten split into two six-team divisions last year following the addition of Nebraska. The move required new schedule rotations in which one opponent falls off the schedule for four straight seasons.

Wisconsin remains as Penn State's season-ending foe through 2016.
