The Northern Illinois Huskies and Iowa Hawkeyes met for the tenth time Saturday afternoon and, for the first 30 minutes, looked really evenly matched. But a strong second half showing from Iowa and ABSOLUTELY NO OFFENSE from Huskies propelled the Hawkeyes to a blowout victory.

It was a tale of two halves for NIU as, in the first half, they moved the ball relatively well, gaining 136 yards and limiting Iowa to just 3 points.

Then, for most of the second half, NIU managed no offense...actually, they managed LESS THAN NOTHING.
