After taking a 21-7 lead in the second quarter, Iowa was outscored 19-0 to close the game. The Hawkeyes blew the 14-point cushion on their way to a 26-21 loss to USC, adding to what has been a season defined by frustratingly slim margins.

For a third game in a row, the Trojans' defense held an opponent to fewer than 110 yards of offense and no more than three points in the second half.

Iowa vs. USC has the potential to go one of two ways. Iowa has dominated most of their opponents this season, but for them to do that on the road against the Trojans seems unlikely. Instead, it'll likely be another close game down to the wire.
