Update: Iowa State won in triple overtime.
Iowa Vs. Iowa State Score: Double-overtime For Season’s First Rivalry Game
The Iowa Hawkeyes led 10-0, 16-10 and 24-17 at various points in their Week 2 rivalry game against the Iowa St. Cyclones, the battle for the all-new Cy-Hawk Trophy. With just over a minute left, ISU quarterback Steele Jantz passed to Darius Darks from four yards out to knot it up.
That trophy actually might explain why nobody really wanted to win this game, but off to overtime we went, and off to overtime we’ve stayed.
Iowa had the ball first, leaning on running back Marcus Coker as they had all day -- he had 28 attempts entering extra time. He rushed four straight times against stacked defensive fronts to begin overtime, eventually putting in a four-yard touchdown.
An Iowa penalty gave the Clones a short field to work with, and Steele Jantz converted by finding Darius Reynolds to tack on another frame.
