LAST MEETING
For the second me in as many meengs, Iowa rallied past Pisburgh in the fourth
quarter for victory. Trailing 20-17 at the start of the fourth quarter, Iowa engineered
a 13-play, 52-yard touchdown drive that proved to be the game-winning score in a
24-20 win.
Each team scored a touchdown in the rst period. The Panthers scored rst on
a Chris James 14-yard rush. On the next possession, Iowa QB Jake Rudock found TE
Henry Krieger-Coble, on a fourth down play, in the end zone from 13 yards out to even
the score.
Pisburgh dominated the second quarter, scor-
ing 10 points on a James Connor 1-yard run and a
Chris Blewi 33-yard eld goal. The Hawkeyes had
possession for 2:44, running only ve plays during
the second period, and Pi went into halime

on three straight scoring drives beginning with
a seven-play, season-long 94-yard drive that re-
sulted in a RB Mark Weisman 10-yard scoring run to cut the decit to 17-14.
Each team traded eld goals before the end of the third quarter, including Iowa PK
