1994 Iowa vs. Minnesota

tonight live from the Metrodome in Minneapolis the latest chapter in the life of our hero Floyd of Rosedale yes a pig his story began in 1935 when the governors of Iowa and Minnesota Clyde herring and Floyd Olsen wagered a championship hog on the outcome of a football game it's almost 60 years later our hero Floyd has changed residents 25 times and racked up more frequent flyer mileage than a pig knows what to do with tonight live on news channel 2 Iowa and Minnesota meet for the 88th time and once again the swine is on the line we look for a repeat performance maybe from Matt Sherman look great last week against Northwestern boy he sure did and what a start he had as a Hawkeye quarterback I think this game these two teams are very even as the points for it indicates just one point Minnesota favored by a point and the stats are very even on the two teams as you look at the Big Ten stats on what are they place offensively and defensively the only stat where there's some difference is in the turn or turnover area turnovers given up and turnovers gotten admit that is in Minnesota's favor and in any football game where you get too closely matched teams like this usually that is the area that determines the game here are the skill positions for the Hawkeye Sedrick Shaw your running back Kent call the full-back leads the team in scoring Harold Jasper caught his 100th career reception last week against Northwestern he's the split in Anthony Dean your flanker mark Russell from Monticello is decide on the offensive line from left to right verba Purdy weak Minh Beaucaire and McCullough dick gallery back to punt for the Hawks let's advance colors at the 5 a huge hit by Tim Dwight there's a fumble touchdown in the end zone it's Dwight who caused it Odom scores in the hot guys are up six to nothing and wife just simply steamroll the Minnesota player ready to see this one again unbelievable Hayden Fry has said nothing but raised for Dwight during his entire freshman season there had been speculation in some newspapers that he was a little bit disgruntled about his lack of playing time from scrimmage but he has been a demon on special teams and he's the one that gives the hawkeye's the early leave that's right there's right the heat trying to feel that he just bottles it there's a good pressure blade he talked about a guy that says intensity that Tim Dwight is probably exemplifies that more than anybody that we've seen around for a long time and he brings a level of player of everybody else on that team up a bit to brian Hurley the extra point for the hawk guys this block has a chance to get ruined guys with defensive line for the hot guys bill and his Inge John Lafleur Parker wildermann leads the team and tackles behind the line of scrimmage and Jeremy McKinney the linebackers John Hart leave the heart leap era ends at least until the next generation arrives tonight and the secondary plugins Markey spoiler we call him bow Pat Boone and Damien Robinson third and two lone setback behind shade is dragon he gets the call he could be gone for 25:40 ten nine eight seven six five four three two one boy is he explosive first intent Sherman a long drop rolls out of the pocket at the 26:5 said rickshaw he is out in the open past midfield cuts back inside the 40 another great block inside the 30 and dragged down as a 25 yard line by Crawford Jordan big play for the Hawks first exam for the Hodge 25-yard line Tavian banks breaks for the outside he is in the inside the 10 5 touchdown Hawkeye a lot of people say the first team 250 points between the hot guys Naomi opers wins and we just might have that tonight Sherman to give us a call or he's a cruising back breaks a bunch of tackles emerges at the 35 yard line the Iowa quarterback has only been sacked eight times all season long this young offensive line has done a great job the pitch to Shaw he cannot handle it and the Golden Gophers have recovered that is Trevor Walker the defensive end from Lancaster Ohio hit him in the face mask didn't it not a good pitch Golden Gophers on the 23 shade to the air to the end zone to Ostrom in knocked up or not but I think there's a flag on the play defensive pass interference we will go on the whole I'd say what that's that's an enthusiastic referee if ever I saw one 15 minutes in the books here at the Metrodome in Minneapolis odd guys playing to a 14 to 10 leave Bobby Jo Sean blessed for the Hawks shade pump-fake drops back even further open over the middle his Ryan Phil well he's still on his feet Phil well inside the 10 yard line down at the 7th shei the throne lobs it to the back of the endzone wide open jump Rios touchdown Minnesota and Minnesota has taken the lead with 12 minutes to go in the first half 1714 Golden Gophers jump Rios his first touchdown of the year Matt Sherman very on 3rd and 9 at the go 446 heavy pressure from Minnesota Sherman toys hips Shaw first down and a great speed move on the side rise Hawkeye 46-yard let's see it here you came up from the right side out of it what these booths but the pictures speak for themselves huh that's a thing of beauty there on the sidelines by Shaw gives the hawk eyes a 20 to 17 lead make it 21 17 here's what Iowa has done in 1994 started the season with wins over the Chippewas and cyclones and then a five-game losing streak just like the 1993 season they beat Michigan State of Northwestern they are 200 and one in their last three weeks always seem to finish strong regardless of their midseason performance through the Hawkeye Sherman going long intended for Dean a great grab inside Minnesota territory down to the 47 yard line this kid can pass it's amazing I mean just on the money almost every time 47 yard line of Minnesota Sherman to banks cuts outside cuts inside cuts outside again inside the 40-yard line that's another first down for Iowa close game on the ground Hawkeye is nearing 100 they just got it with this carry by Kent call he keeps moving breaks out into the open they're going backwards folks second and goal at the 17 Sedrick Shaw up the middle gets a lot of it back and more touchdown Cedric Shaw needs 27 for a thousand something tells me he's going to get it Wow some great move dat is good hot guys up 28 to 17 just over two minutes to go in the first half Mike Kimball with the punt Tim Dwight has it at the 20-yard line cuts back he's in the 25 has blockers out past midfield Tim Dwight still in bounds and pushed down at the Minnesota 35 yard line so it will be a 23 yard field goal attempt by Brian Hurley they're going to fake it this is Todd Romano throwing to Rodney filer who makes the catch but can't get in the end zone that's all right that's a good play right there as Jefferson Bates excuse me on the throne that's Jefferson Bates the backup quarterback but it didn't work and that's the end of the first half shade to darken touchdown Minnesota they will indeed go for two two wideouts either side including darkens in the slot on the left he's the one in motion Jane in the pocket lost it back to the end zone a great grant by two to Atwell two-point conversion is good and we've got a three-point football game darkens the lone setback Gabe plays off him and goes the Hawkeye 40 Jackson in pursuit he doesn't catch him touchdown 32 to corny a gopher Minnesota 34 yard line split backs behind Sherman throws it over the middle another wide open receiver Kimo Odom he just might score a touchdown yes siree back and forth agos Hawkeye's regain the lane total of 67 points in this football game there is still 7 minutes and 12 seconds to play in the third quarter Minnesota's three out of ten and third down conversions here tonight and they just at the fumble funk and the Huck Ives have recovered George Bennett comes up with the football Chris Jackson is a Hawkeye that really put the hit on that receiver to pop that ball loose you said Bennett's back there to fall on the ball big turnover for the Hawkeye's here shade will throw going deep and Carrie Cooke's has an interception for the Hawkeye he breaks away from his would-be tackler Ryan Phil well the intended receiver and takes it inside the 30-yard line should be the last play of the third quarter Tim Dwight is going to throw it back to max Ehrmann touchdown haka how what hasn't swim Jim Dwight done this season he throws here now Steve's all the assistant inside a what hasn't he done here mister stats he's headed on I don't think I'd say what about 20 minutes ago Mike I asked you what we're going to
