Live scores, highlights and updates from the Illinois vs. Iowa football game
Game Recap
If the Illinois Fighting Illini were expecting to get some payback for the 19-10 loss against the Iowa Hawkeyes when they previously met last November, then they were left disappointed. Illinois came up short against Iowa on Saturday, falling 35-21.
WR Ihmir Smith-Marsette was the offensive standout of the contest for the Hawkeyes, punching in one rushing touchdown in addition to snatching one receiving TD. QB Spencer Petras had a good game, too, finishing with three touchdowns.
No one had a standout game offensively for the Fighting Illini, but they got scores from a handful of players including TE Daniel Barker, WR Carlos Sandy, and QB Isaiah Williams.
Illinois' overall record fell to 2-4. The win improved Iowa's record to 5-2.
Illinois will take on the Northwestern Wildcats at 1 p.m. ET next Saturday at Ryan Field. Like Illinois, Northwestern is looking to wash their mouths of the taste of defeat after falling 29-20 to the Michigan State Spartans. Iowa will take on the Wisconsin Badgers at 1 p.m. ET next Saturday at home. Iowa is 4-0 after wins this year, and Wisconsin is 0-1 after losses.
