The little things the Hawkeyes needed to go well didn't, and the big stuff didn't go well either. Analysis after Iowa football vs Ohio State.

Ohio State football welcomed Iowa to Ohio Stadium Saturday, and it left the Hawkeyes with one of their worst defeats in quite a while. The Buckeyes started off slow, taking just a 7-0 lead into the half,

Iowa (3-2, 1-1) held the Buckeyes to only one score in the first half, an 88-yard touchdown drive on their first possession. But Ohio State's stout defense shut down Hawkeyes star running back Kaleb Johnson and limited Iowa to only 90 yards in the first half. That allowed the Buckeyes to go into the locker room with an uncomfortably slim lead.
