AMES, Iowa -- The 67th edition of the Cy-Hawk Series featured all the oddities of a rivalry game.
There were two lightning delays totaling 2 hours, 55 minutes. During the second stoppage, Iowa's team managers, escorted by state troopers, collected about 60 sandwiches from three local outlets for the hungry players.
"I didn't get one of them," coach Kirk Ferentz said, "but I did see somebody with like a 12-incher or 14-incher."
The game included five field goals, two long Iowa State touchdowns, only one touchdown by the winning team, and a rather inglorious ending: Iowa delay of game, Iowa false start, Iowa punt that Iowa State fumbled after Datrone Young ran into teammate/returner Deshaunte Jones.
