ESPN - Big Ten Blog: Final: Northwestern 17, Iowa 10
Posted by ESPN.com's Adam Rittenberg
IOWA CITY, Iowa -- The dream is over for the Iowa Hawkeyes.
Northwestern shocked No. 4 Iowa behind a dominant defensive effort and just enough offense. Iowa backup quarterback James Vandenberg couldn't rally his team, which had lost Ricky Stanzi to an ankle injury in the second quarter.
Corey Wootton's sack of Stanzi in the end zone changed the entire game. Iowa's 13-game win streak is over, while Northwestern has won its third straight at Kinnick Stadium and is now bowl eligible.
