You won’t find many programs with tight ends as prolific as the ones that come through Iowa. Yes, that includes Noah Fant.

Late in the first half of Saturday’s game between Ohio State and Iowa, the two teams were knotted 17 with the Hawkeyes driving, hoping to take a lead before heading into halftime.

That’s when Nate Stanley delivered an incredible strike to tight end Noah Fant in the back of the end zone to put Iowa ahead 24-17.

Fant has been a force for the Hawkeyes all season. He entered Saturday’s game against Ohio State with 19 receptions for 299 yards and five touchdowns.

Stanley had thrown 17 touchdown passes coming into the game.
