Hawkeyes Pierced

It's hard not to get excited about a 27-7 win over a rival that has beaten you 5 straight times, but Penn State fans need to keep this game in perspective. Iowa is not a very good football team this year, having lost to the likes of Iowa State and Indiana. They did keep within three points of an over-rated Wisconsin team, but let's be honest. . . they were a touchdown and an onsides kick of pulling off a 21-20 upset this weekend.
How does that happen in a 27-7 game?

The whole scenario began with Penn State driving into Iowa territory late in the third quarter. The Lions got into a fourth and a short two from the 26. Let's pause the tape and review here.

Kevin Kelly had booted a 53 yarder at the end of the first half. He has the leg for a 43 yard kick, but his accuracy has not yet been established. He is not money in the bank--he's maybe a twenty you might find on the street, but how often does that happen?
