NW'ern 17, Iowa 10 (Final)

[BB73]

Wildcats head to Iowa City.

 

[BB73]

Next week's opponent off to a good start for a change. 10-0. Iowa.

 

[BB73]

Stanzi just ran a bootleg into Corey Wooten in the end zone, fumbled it for a NW'ern TD.

Stanzi's still down in the end zone.

He's up now, limping badly on his right leg.

Uh-oh down goes Stanzi with what looks like a bad ankle injury. NW just recovered a fumble in the end zone for a TD.

 

[Evan]

Not the way you want to see it happen, but that makes a win at Penn St. today that much bigger

 

[CentralMOBuck]

Stanzi is limping into the locker room and the backup just threw and INT.

And another Iowa pick. What looked to be a blowout after the 1st quarter now falling apart. I thought we could beat Iowa with Stanzi in the game, their backup is just a freshman. Hopefully for them, Stanzi will be ok.

If Iowa doesn't win this one and we beat Penn State...then the Iowa game becomes our Rose Bowl play in game. Michigan game wouldn't matter as far as the Rose Bowl is concerned, because even if we lost that one and had 2 Big Ten losses, we would tie for 1st with Iowa, Penn State, and Wisconsin. But since we would have beaten all 3 of them, we'd win the tiebreaker to go to the Rose Bowl.

Personally, I hope Iowa wins this game, because I'm hoping we beat Michigan either way and I'd rather Iowa still be ranked in the top 5 when we play them next week. But Iowa is struggling on offense. 3 turnovers already.

TD Northwestern. Iowa is now down 14-10. Iowa's defense looks like a sieve.

 

[Fungo Squiggly]

Go U Northwestern!

 

[JXC]

Go U Northwestern!

I'd rather beat an undefeated Iowa...

 

[JXC]

What?!?!? High hit?!?! Wow...personal foul for tackling!!! I mean, that was bad.

 

[BuckeyeTillIDie]

Football is becoming a joke with some of these pussy calls by refs

 

[JXC]

This is sick. Iowa has turned the ball over four times.


Edit: He was down...but they didn't review it. That's awesome. Way to go Big Ten in not reviewing it.

 

[BuckeyeTillIDie]

Another Iowa turnover. They should really have 4 or 5 losses.
