An even more dominant performance was witnessed against Penn State's Nittany Lions where Iowa triumphed with a score of 41-21. The defense shined by forcing four turnovers including two interceptions returned for 70 yards and one touchdown. Offensively, they were relentless in rushing with four touchdowns on the ground.


The upcoming match promises to be an exciting encounter as Kinnick Stadium has proven to be a fortress for Iowa this season. With their current momentum and home advantage, fans can expect another strong performance from both sides of the ball.
