No. 19 Iowa shuts down Illinois 19-10 behind Stanley, Duncan

Sports

November 23rd, 2019 by Ric Hanson

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Nate Stanley threw for 308 yards and Keith Duncan kicked four field goals to set a new Big Ten single-season mark as No. 19 Iowa shut down Illinois, 19-10, on Saturday. The Hawkeyes also forced three turnovers against the team that came into the game leading the nation in turnover margin. But quarterback Brandon Peters was intercepted twice and lost a fourth-quarter fumble as the Fighting Illini (6-5, 4-4 Big Ten) saw their four-game winning streak come to an end.

Iowa (8-3, 5-3) held Illinois to its lowest point total of the season, a week after doing the same thing to Minnesota. Illinois had 198 rushing yards and held the Hawkeyes to just 79 rushing yards on 32 carries. Iowa has won six consecutive games in this rivalry, but this was a competitive game. The Hawkeyes had won the last three games by a combined score of 137-16.

Iowa could move up a spot or two with the win. Illinois had received a vote in last week’s poll. Both teams were already bowl eligible.

Atlantic multi-sport athlete Tyler Moen announced via twitter Friday his commitment to play football for Iowa State as a preferred walk-on.

Moen had a breakout senior season at running back for the Trojans. He set the all-time Atlantic single-season rushing record with 1,909 yards. He ended his career fifth on the Trojans all-time  rushing list with 2,427 yards.

He finished that game with 5 rushing touchdowns and also added two interception returns for touchdowns. Moen finished the year with 25 total touchdowns.
