Jack Campbell Has Secured His Legacy As One of Iowa’s Defensive Greats

Late in the 4^th quarter of Iowa’s game against Minnesota, the Hawkeyes’ hopes for a Big Ten Championship berth appeared to be circling the drain. Iowa’s offense had fizzled out after a hot start thanks to an injury to star tight end Sam LaPorta, and the vaunted Hawkeye defense was being unexpectedly gouged on the ground, surrendering a shocking 312 rushing yards thanks to an otherworldly performance by Gopher running back Mohamed Ibrahim. With Minnesota in the redzone and the Hawkeye defense seemingly exhausted and on its heels, Iowa’s chances of escaping Minneapolis with a win seemed slim at best.
