2011 Week 10

The Iowa Hawkeyes can now smell the National Championship as they have two more games to play before post-season bowl games are announced.
Iowa racked up 217 rushing yards against the ranked Badgers as Jevon Pugh was their leading rusher with 166 yards and a touchdown. They prove to be a force near the endzone with their fullbacks as Iowa's FB Brian Thompson had one yard but the most important stat behind his 1 yard was one touchdown.
WR Franklin Newby gave Iowa some breathing room when he returned a punt for an 82 yard touchdown in the fourth quarter. Punter Joe Bennett added a field goal in the fourth to secure the win for Iowa as they went on to win, 24-14.
Next up for Iowa is an easy #116 Northwestern. But as Iowa knows, those bad teams are the ones that usually puts them to the test.
