Washington State came into the game having been unbeaten in it's last six games against Big Ten teams, including a last second victory against Illinois the week prior. After the Hawkeyes had fumbled the opening kick off last week leading to a route by Oregon State. This week Levi Mitchelltook the opening kick off 92 yards for a touchdown. It was the start of a route for the Hawkeyes this time. Iowa scored again on it's next possession, on a 82 yard touchdown run by Tom Smith

The Hawkeyes had three players rush for over 100 yards. They also played two quarterbacks on the day who threw for over 100 yards. Senior Mike Cilek scored the first touchdown of his career, and then went on to score two more. .

HIGHLIGHTS

FULL GAME

PLAYER GAME QUOTES

I wore black high-top shoes today. Yeah, one of the papers really got on me last week, hinting I was trying to look like Joe Namath with white shoes and having my hair so long it stuck out the back of my helmet. Well, I really wore the high-top shoes today to give me a little more protection because I've been having some ankle troubles. And I got a haircut, but I hope people realize I'm the same guy whether I have long hair or not. What difference does it really make? I'm not like Joe Namath, and I'm not trying to be. Let him do his thing. Oh, I'd like to be able to quarterback as well as he does, but that's where it ends.
-- Larry Lawrence

COACH GAME QUOTES

Two things. First I think the opening kickoff was the turning point, as it was last week. Also I forgot to put on my football shoes. It might be a long time before I wear them again if almost 700 yards offense and 36 first downs is the result.
-- Ray Nagel
