The Iowa Hawkeyes upset the 5th ranked Penn State Nittany Lions for the second straight year with a 21-10 victory on Saturday night.
“The team really proved to be a resilient bunch tonight because there was nothing easy about anything that happened out there,” Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz said after the game.
It was such a physical game the Hawkeyes didn’t have enough energy to celebrate after they pulled off the upset.
“I was too tired to celebrate,” junior defensive end, Adrian Clayborn said. “I was just trying to get to the sideline so I could sit down.”
Iowa sits at 4-0 on the season and the win impressed the AP voters so much that they’re now ranked #13 overall. They are not a great team, but they are well coached and very physical up front.

Clayborn was talking about blocking the punt and returning it for a TD not the game itself.
