Un-ranked Iowa destroys #2 Northwestern 34-10. After ripping his teams defensive play the last 3 weeks, Coach Kendrick who obviously overjoyed with his teams preformance had this say:
"We came in with a game plan to pressure their QB with stunts and motion, and to jam their recievers at the line and we did that. Our guys did exactly what we told them to do all week and in the end it paid off. Sure they hit us with 3 or 4 big plays but we recovered when they hit them and only gave up 3 points because of it. There was only that first long drive they had that we didn't excute like we wanted to. You take away that first drive and you realize that we held that team to under 150 yards, I think that shows what kind of performance this team can do."
With a trip to the Horseshoe looming next week, this was a much needed proformance which should give the hawkeyes plenty of confidence.
