Game Notes

#8 Hawkeyes run out of magic before running out of mistakes, fall 17-10 to the Wildcats.

A week after surviving 5 INTs in the 1st 3 quarters, Iowa loses starting QB Ricky Stanzi to injury, and also loses 4 more turnovers, including one that sees Stanzi injured, and the game turned around. Iowa jumps out to a 10-0 lead in the 1st quarter, but Stanzi is sacked in the end zone, loses the football and injures his ankle on the play.

Marshall Thomas recovers the football for the TD. Dan Persa gives Northwestern the lead by hitting Drake Dunsmore with a 4-yard TD pass in the 2nd quarter. The Wildcats manage just 239 yards on offense, buts its enough as the Hawkeyes continue their season-long trademark of turning the ball over.
