I admit it... I was feeling pretty good after three quarters of this game. Holding Iowa to three field goals with a two score lead, it looked like Nebraska was going to break this hideous string of painful losses. Only to have Iowa play the most unlikely bingo card to tie the game up: blocked punt touchdown, safety and yet another field goal.
As Iowa beatwriters told us this week, you win with field goals, not touchdowns. https://t.co/UOBHUzLLk4

Nebraska’s big bugaboos from this season (awful special teams and offensive line play) came back to haunt in that fourth quarter, and Iowa did the most Iowa thing they possibly could do in dominating the fourth quarter.
