Did anybody else get that feeling against Wisconsin when Aaron Graves essentially had a pick six and Gronowski finished it off to put Iowa up 17 to 0 that the game was over???

Like no matter what happened the rest of the game Wisconsin wasn’t going to put up 17 points.

It kind of reminded me of the 2nd Big Ten Championship game against Michigan in 2023 when Harbaugh and Co. went up 10 to 0 on Iowa. He had this look on his face like, “Brian Ferentz can’t score a touchdown on me and even a fortuitous defensive or special teams touchdown won’t get it done.”

I want to thank Wisconsin for letting us Iowa fans know what that’s like!

Pretty much. I just wish the refs hadn't taken that away from Iowa in that game and let Michigan end the game by themselves. They would have, no doubt, but that fumble call was awful. If that game ended up close people would still be getting in fights over it.

We lost that game 26 to 0. The defense actually played pretty well. Brian Ferentz took that game away from Iowa, the refs had nothing to do with that.
