Iowa has two drives with five plays and a punt, while MSU mixed in one drive with five plays and a punt. Spartans get the ball looking to score. The Spartans will once again be without Aidan Chiles and Nikai Martinez, but could be getting a senior wide receiver back into the lineup.

Mark Gronowski rallied the troops just in time. After a Stevens field goal early in the fourth brought Iowa within a touchdown, Gronowski hit Jacob Gill for a 13-yard score in the back corner of the north end zone with 1:29 left. Following another defensive stop, the Hawkeyes got the ball back with 41 seconds left and went to work.

Michigan’s defense is turning to new faces at key moments as the stretch run approaches, revealing a quiet youth movement.

The headliner of the late window in college football is a matchup between No. 11 BYU and Cincinnati. The Cougars are on track to face Texas Tech in the Big 12 title game. Texas Tech and BYU are the only teams from the conference with just one loss against Big 12 competition.

The Penn State defense gave up a big run on the first play of the series after the turnover on downs, but Michigan State was unable to put together a viable scoring threat. The Spartans punted the ball back to Penn State and the Nittany Lions are deep in their end late in the first half.

Michigan State found another way to lose against Iowa, outgained 159-26 in the fourth quarter and, most importantly, outscored 13-0 as Iowa walked it off with a 44-yard field goal. “It's painful,” MSU coach Jonathan Smith said.
