RECAP

Spencer Petras threw a 44-yard touchdown pass to Nico Ragaini to complete Iowa's comeback from a two-touchdown deficit (behind 17-3), all accomplished while Penn State's offense did next to nothing after quarterback Sean Clifford was knocked out of the game. He led the Lions to 17 points early in the game.

Iowa won the field-position battle thanks to the work of punter Tory Taylor, who repeatedly pinned Penn State deep in its own end after Clifford went out in the second quarter. Iowa kept adding critical points with 3 field goals by Caleb Shudak, including a 48-yard FG.

The sellout crowd of 70,000 had a major impact when the Lions were near their own end zone, forcing numerous false starts. The defense settled down, holding PSU to 3 points in the second half, and getting 4 more interceptions on the day.

COACH GAME QUOTES

Kirk Ferentz ...our fans did a great job. They were into the game. We knew they’d ready to go at the start. They were more ready than we were. Just wanted to make sure our team understood that they can’t play the game for us. They did a great job all the way through. What a great scene at the end. That’s really special. That’s what makes being in Kinnick special.
-- Kirk Ferentz
