Iowa -10.5 at NW'ern (ov/un 50.5) Noon ET, ESPN

[BB73]

Revenge game for the Hawkeyes and for Stanzi.

 

[DubCoffman62]

Northwestern has jumped to some early leads lately but can't seem to finish them off. I think they have a chance against Iowa at home.

 

[jlb1705]

The Mildcats doing what they do best, taking an early lead and beating Iowa. 7-0.

 

[jlb1705]

Iowa gets a FG to get on the board near the close of the half.

NW leads 7-3

 

[Taosman]

It's raining Cats and dogs in Chicago and the Iowa is having trouble scoring recently.

 

[jlb1705]

Stanzi goes deep to Johnson-Koulianos for a score. Iowa leads 17-7.

 

[scarletmike]

WTF was that Stanzi?

17-14

 

[osugrad21]

NW making this a great ending...get it in the zone boys.

 

[osugrad21]

Brass balls call of the day...TD NW

 

[jlb1705]

Wow! NW scores! Persa is hurt - Clayborne was bearing down on him when he got rid of that one. He jumped to throw it across his body, maybe he came down on it funny. It didn't look bad on the replay, but the way they're carrying him off doesn't look good at all. I guess the silver lining for NW is that up 4 this late, this one shouldn't go to overtime so they probably won't need him again today.

 

[Meyer]

I'm rooting for Iowa..... But DAMN.

 

[Coqui]

Did they really just say Persa was one of the best QBs in the Big10 because of his ability to shed tackles and run the ball?

 

[Evan]

F me...we needed Iowa to win this so it looks good when we beat them. Not good.

 

[Coqui]

I'm rooting for Iowa..... But DAMN.

Other than not making next week look as good (since they'll be lower ranked) is there any reason Iowa needs to win this game for our purposes?
