This was an awsome game we almost blew it. When we blocked the first FG i went nuts almost blew my wifes ear drums out. But, when the ref said that with one second left and UNI would get another shot. I thought that there is no way that we could do it again. When we did i just looked at the tv shocked.
Iowa needed this scare as a wakeup call for the remainder of the season. After halftime, Iowa pretty much shut down UNI's offense, but the problem is, Iowa came into the game with the mindset that it was a mere formality, what they used to do against Iowa State. They woke up big time and bombed Iowa State, blew out Arizona, and came back to beat Penn State in Beaver Stadium, something only the best teams can do, and I believe Iowa is the best team in the nation this year. Too much Iowa Kool-Aid?
@MVillani1985 It certainly let us know that we are not invulnerable and who knows, would we have come from behind to beat Michigan State, Indiana, and even you had this not occurred? And don't forget us coming back from 14 down in Columbus to take it to OT. Even though we lost we definitely made a great accounting of ourselves given Stanzi and Wegher were both out. Would we have won the Orange Bowl? Perhaps such a lesson was missing from the 2010 season. Nobody is invulnerable.
