College football Week 6: Penn State-Iowa, the Red River Rivalry and more

Iowa's Kinnick Stadium has been a site for both elation and heartache when highly ranked Penn State teams come to visit.

In 2008, No. 3 Penn State arrived at 9-0, eyeing its first BCS championship game appearance. The Nittany Lions led by nine points entering the fourth quarter but fell 24-23 when Iowa's Daniel Murray hit a 31-yard field goal as time expired.

Nine years later, No. 4 Penn State trailed 19-15 with 1:42 left, when quarterback Trace McSorley guided the offense downfield and found Juwan Johnson for a walk-off touchdown.
