There were many factors that played into No. 2 Iowa being shocked by Purdue but none was more important than the play of receiver David Bell.

He torched the Hawkeyes secondary all game long as he finished with 11 receptions for 240 yards and a touchdown. His 240 yards receiving is the most yards the Hawkeyes defense has given up to any receiver this season.

Bell spoke to Jason Fitz and Harry Douglas after the game on ESPN to discuss this performance, plus how he’s always seemed to have it out for the Hawkeyes in previous matchups.

“I personally think it has to go with the preparation that coach Brohm puts us up to. Each week that we play Iowa, it seems like we’re a little more dialed in against them and it showed in today (Saturday) how dialed in we were.”

The Boilermakers got off to an outstanding start as they ked Iowa 14-7 at halftime before adding 10 more points in the 2nd half to win 24-7.

Quarterback Aidan O’Connell finished with 375 yards passing with 2 touchdown passes while Hawkeyes quarterback Spencer Petras was held to just 195 yards and was intercepted 4 times.
