Nebraska football leads at the half in Iowa City.
The Huskers are out in front of a low-scoring affair, leading Iowa 10-0. NU is looking for win number seven on the year while the Hawkeyes are in search of win number eight.
Iowa struggled offensively out the gate, failing to pick up a first down for the entire first quarter. The Hawkeyes had five three-and-outs in the first 30 minutes. The only drive to not end in a three-and-out only lasted four plays.
Nebraska’s offense had four punts in the first two quarters, bookended by scoring drives. John Hohl made a 31-yard field goal on NU’s opening drive while Dante Dowdell scored on a 1-yard run behind defensive lineman Ty Robinson with 38 seconds left in the half.
The Hawkeyes managed just 20 total yards in the first half. The best running back in the nation not named Ashton Jeanty, Kaleb Johnson, was held to 16 yards on 10 carries.
The Huskers tallied 182 yards in the first half, including 96 yards passing from Dylan Raiola. Emmett Johnson led the backfield with 46 yards rushing.
Nebraska will have the ball to begin the second half.
