RECAP

The Hawkeyes played a close game with Illinois and could have taken the lead in the 3rd quarter if it wouldn't have been for two missed extra points by Nick Quartaro. The only touch down Illinois could muster in the first half was on an interception return by Scott Studwell. Illinois would go on to score 2 touchdowns in the second half one was set up on an Iowa fumble on Iowa's 16 yard line. Tom McLaughlin made his debut at QB for Iowa completing 1 of 12 passes for 31 yards and 1 interception.
