RECAP

It was the closest scoring game in the series since 1976, when Iowa squeaked by the Wildcats 13-10. Mark Vlasic hit a 93-yard touchdown pass to Quinn Early, the longest touchdown pass in Iowa history, boosting Iowa's lead in the second quarter to 17-0. Northwestern's Stanley Davenport rushed for 155 yards (including an 89-yard touchdown run). It was the first time the Hawks stingy defense has given up over 100 yards rushing this season.
