Iowa’s top two running backs, Akrum Wadley and James Butler, are both out for the rest of the game against North Texas. But that is no problem for the Hawkeye offense because they still have tight end Noah Fant.
Iowa was down 14-10, until quarterback Nate Stanley hit Fant for a 23 yard touchdown pass. However, what was so impressive about Fant’s score was that he hauled a defender on his back during it.
You thought Noah Fant would be tackled before the end zone.
So did North Texas, it seems.

The 23 yard score was Fant’s third touchdown of the season.
