IOWA CITY, Iowa -- A good team victory.

Those were the 21st through 24th words to come out of University of Iowa head coach Kirk Ferentz’s mouth Saturday after his 10th rated Hawkeyes improved to 8-0 on the season with a 31-15 victory over Maryland in Kinnick Stadium.

And nothing summarized good team football like the final 10 plays of the first half.

It started innocently enough with a 38-yard punt by UI senior Dillon Kidd that was downed at Maryland’s 3-yard line with Iowa ahead 14-0 and 2:07 left before the break.
