Your Iowa Hawkeyes overcame a bit of a rocky first half to stuff Nebraska’s turkey en route to a 26-20 win, Iowa’s sixth in a row over the Huskers on Black Friday.
Iowa got the ball to start the game and put itself up early following a drive that saw an incredible 22-yard catch from Shaun Beyer and an egregious late hit penalty on Nebraska. The Hawkeyes came away with just three points when it had an opportunity to get seven, which would be emblematic of the rest of the half slash game.
Hope looked like it would spring eternal on the defensive side of the ball for the Hawks as a big tackle for a loss from Daviyon Nixon preceded a sack from Seth Benson, hamstringing the first offensive drive for Nebby.
