Story summary

As time expired on Saturday, Luke Drzewiecki kicked a 46-yard field goal, lifting Minnesota to a 13-10 victory over No. 15 Iowa in Minneapolis. This win marks the second time in 12 years that Minnesota has claimed the Floyd of Rosedale trophy, which they last won in 2023. With this victory, Minnesota improved their overall record to 5-2, and 2-2 in Big Ten play.

Late in the game, Drake Lindsey connected with Jalen Smith on a critical 39-yard pass play, setting up Drzewiecki's winning kick. Minnesota also benefited from a third-quarter rushing touchdown by Darius Taylor after an offsides penalty on Iowa negated a fourth-down stop. Despite being held to just 209 yards of offense, Minnesota managed the crucial plays needed for the win.

Iowa, meanwhile, struggled offensively with only 163 passing yards and 90 rushing yards through three quarters against a resurgent Minnesota defense that had allowed 464 yards in their previous game. The Hawkeyes finished with a total of 288 yards, were intercepted three times, and fumbled four times but lost only one turnover. Iowa’s Hank Brown threw for 136 yards overall, including a 37-yard touchdown pass to Reece Vander Zee that tied the game late in the fourth quarter.
