2012 Week 13

Northern Iowa won but they didn't lead the game until the fourth quarter. They were behind the Rebels 0-7 early in the first quarter until they tied the game with 3:36 left in the first quarter by a 13 yard rushing touchdown by Mikel LeShoure. At halftime the Panthers were down 10-14 to the Rebels but they came back with a rushing touchdown by QB Leonard Robertson and two field goals (one from 52 yards out with no time left on the clock) to win the game 23-14.
With the win, it gave the Panthers an unbelievable undefeated record in the SEC conference of 8-0. They are 10-1 overall with their best record in years even when they played in the 1-AA Gateway Conference. "To do this amazing feat in 1A football is just amazing! I'm confident that in a few more years barring any NCAA probations or penalties and with some kindness from the polls, I can make this team into a feared team" Coach Pelini added.
Next up for #113 UNI is #69 Arkansas State, their last game of the season. They plan on having a fun day because they have nothing to lose since they are not allowed to go to any bowl games or conference championships.
