Iowa WR makes incredible catch as Hawkeyes take double-digit lead over Colorado State
Hawkeyes receiver Nico Ragaini made a spectacular catch on 3rd down which would eventually lead to a field goal later on that drive.
Spencer Petras hit Ragaini on an over-the-shoulder throw and he was able to catch it while falling for a 30-yard gain.

Had Ragaini not made that catch, the Hawkeyes likely would’ve punted back to Colorado State and asked their defense to make another stop.
Iowa ended up getting a field goal at the end of the drive as kicker Caleb Shudak nailed a 45-yarder to make it 24-14.
Ragaini finished the contest with 2 catches for 38 yards as the Hawkeyes improved to 4-0 going into B1G play.
Petras finished with 224 yards passing with 2 touchdown passes as the 2 touchdowns went to Sam LaPorta and Keagan Johnson, respectively.
The Hawkeyes will have a big test next Friday as they travel to College Park to take on 4-0 Maryland. Kickoff will be at 8 p.m. ET on FS1.
