RECAP

Quarterback Wilburn Hollis and Halfback Larry Ferguson were both out with injuries. Matt Szykowny started for the injured Wilburn Hollis at quarterback, and passed for 128 yards and had one touchdown pass. The loss of Fergie was handled by committee. Joe Williams rushed for two touchdowns and Sammie Harris and Paul Krause each had over 60 yards rushing for the Hawks.

Iowa scored one touchdown in every quarter, and only allowed an Indiana touchdown in the fourth quarter when the second string was in the game. The defense smothered the Hoosiers in the first three quarters.
