Per CBS:
Three plays later, quarterback Deacon Hill threw an interception and Iowa officially lost its first matchup against Minnesota since 2014 by a 12-10 mark. It was also the first loss to the Gophers in Kinnick Stadium since 1999. To make matters worse, it was the second conference loss for Iowa, slotting the Hawkeyes behind Wisconsin in the Big Ten West race. Iowa is tied with Minnesota and Nebraska in the loss column.
Go Gophers!!
Loser: Iowa
The great part about college football is that every single week there's something new and outrageous on the table. This week, it was Iowa potentially costing itself a trip to the Big Ten Championship Game thanks to – of all things – a controversial fair catch call. Returner Cooper DeJean fielded a punt off the bounce near midfield and returned it through traffic for a touchdown. However, the referees ruled that he inadvertently waved his arms to signal a fair catch, meaning the ball is downed at the return.Three plays later, quarterback Deacon Hill threw an interception and Iowa officially lost its first matchup against Minnesota since 2014 by a 12-10 mark.
