Iowa now has excellent field position as a result of back-to-back stops. When we return, the Hawkeyes will take over around midfield. 3:04/1Q – Iowa's defence responds to the call. The Hawkeyes force a three-and-out and begin in Nebraska territory. 4:29/1Q – A startling change of events. Sam LaPorta seemed to have a touchdown reception on fourth-and-goal, but review overturns the catch after the ball squirted out after the catch and contact with the ground. Given what was called on the field, I'm shocked it was reversed. Nebraska maintains a 7-0 lead and will take over at the 1. 5:21/1Q — Iowa faces a critical third-and-goal situation. The Hawkeyes request a timeout with third-and-goal from the Nebraska 13. Earlier in the drive, Sam LaPorta and Keegan Johnson both converted important third-downs. Is Alex Padilla capable of one more? 9:18/1Q – Nebraska with a strong first drive. A fourth-and-short conversion, followed by a massive completion from Logan Smothers. He caps off the drive with a short touchdown run. The touchdown drive lasted 12 plays and 75 yards. Nebraska had a 7-0 lead early on. — 12:35 p.m. Jack Koerner is on the field.

Was on the kickoff team for Iowa to open the game. — Chad Leistikow (@ChadLeistikow) November 26, 2021 12:29 p.m. – We're almost set to go. Iowa wins the coin toss and chooses to defer. Logan Smothers will make an early appearance. — 12:15 p.m. Nebraska, on the other hand, has a significant absence. Damion Daniels is OUT today, too. Not in pads. — Sam McKewon (@swmckewonOWH) November 26, 2021 It'll all come down to how safety Jack Koerner looks in

12:03 p.m. — Other than previously announced injuries/health issues, Iowa doesn't have any additional availability concerns.

By Monte Perez 5 Things We learned about week 3 In College Football  5) Is it time to say goodbye to Clay Helton? USC was trailing Stanford 35-13 going into the 4th quarter Saturday night before losing, 42-28. The Trojan faithful left the stadium early. USC played an unmotivated, lethargic game at home. USC used to be a national powerhouse. That is no longer the case. In 2020 Helton had the No.64 ranked recruiting class in the country. It is time to make a change. He is not attracting players from across the country.  4) It is not even close between Iowa and Iowa State:

Photo Credit: (USA Today). For the past 2 seasons, I have been screaming to anyone who will listen. Iowa is a better program and Kirk Ferentz is a better coach than Iowa State’s Matt Campbell. Iowa dominated from start to finish, defeating the Cyclones 27-17. The Hawkeyes have won 8 straight games including 5 straight wins against ranked teams. Iowa has also won 6 in a row against Iowa State. The last time they won six straight in the series was when it won 15 in a row from 1983-97. This is not a rivalry; it is a big brother beating up on little brother. 3) Can we take the Miami Hurricanes seriously? Floridians were confident all off-season that the Miami Hurricanes could pull the upset and beat #1 ranked Alabama. That dream became a nightmare as Miami lost to the Crimson Tide, 44-13. On Saturday the Canes struggled to beat Appalachian State, 25-23. If Miami is the No.22 ranked team in the country, college football is in trouble.  2) Texas A&M wins with defense: When we think of Jimbo Fisher’s team we think of offense. That did not happen on Saturday. The #5 ranked Aggies defeated Colorado 10-7. Texas A&M held the Buffalos to 260 total yards on offense. Are the Aggies a legitimate threat to win the SEC this year?  I do not think so. They will not be a top 10 team by the end of the season.  1) Here come the Oregon Ducks:
