Folks, YOUR IOWA HAWKEYES ARE BIG TEN WEST CHAMPIONS!
Two absolutely heroic plays from Kaleb Johnson in the 4th quarter snatched victory from the jaws of defeat as Iowa managed to hang on for a 15-13 win over Illinois to clinch a loss in Indianapolis in a couple weeks.
If you had hope that last week was a lasting change for the Iowa offense, you thought correctly for the first few drives of the game, until it all came crashing back down to earth. Deacon Hill ended the day with 167 yards through the air and a touchdown on 19/29 passes, but was absolutely abysmal late in the first half and the entire second half, as Brian Ferentz decided to go away from literally anything that was working in Hill’s favor for…whatever that second half was.
