Make it four straight for the Hawkeyes.
After leading Nebraska 28-13 entering the fourth quarter, Iowa surrendered 15 unanswered points, knotting the game at 28-28 in the final minute of Friday’s matchup. But Iowa was able to drive down the field on the team’s final possession and set up a game-winning field goal attempt for Miguel Recinos.
The kicker delivered.

A game-winning field goal at home over a rival opponent. Does it get any better for the Hawkeyes? It doesn’t get much sweeter for Recinos either, who is also a senior.
What an incredible end to the season for Iowa.
