Penn State and Iowa have played a lot of weird games over the years. There was the 2004 defensive “battle” that Iowa won 6-4. Seven years later, the two sides once again combined to score fewer than 20 points when Penn State won 13-3 on Yom Kippur. I’ll always remember watching on my DVR as Rob Bolden completed a pass by bouncing the ball off the umpire’s foot.
Back in 2008, Iowa ruined Penn State’s perfect season with a last-second field goal at Kinnick, and the Hawkeyes stole the revenge game in 2009 thanks to Adrian Clayborn returning a blocked punt for a touchdown.
