Iowa tops Nebraska on field goal as time expires
Nebraska blocked two Iowa field-goal attempts on Friday. The Cornhuskers weren’t able to complete the hat trick and the Hawkeyes won, 13-10, on a last-second field goal.
The win was the 10th of the season for Iowa, which survived one ugly contest to win the Heroes Trophy.
Marshall Meeder had not made an attempt all year before the game-winner from 38 yards.
Last 5 mins of Iowa-Nebraska (thus far).

The game-winning drive came after Chubba Purdy — yes, Brock’s brother — threw an interception with 15 seconds left. He was picked by Ethan Hurkett.
Leshon Williams broke a 22-yard run to set the stage for Meeder’s heroics.
