No. 15 Iowa blanks Minnesota 12-0

No. 15 Iowa blanks Minnesota 12-0
LUKE MEREDITH, Nov 21, 2009
With a bronze pig on the line, No. 15 Iowa put a new twist on winning ugly -- this time by taking a game that featured more punts than points. James Vandenberg threw for 117 yards, fellow freshman Brandon Wegher ran for a touchdown and Iowa kept alive its hopes for a BCS bowl bid by beating Minnesota 12-0 on Saturday. ...More

Revenge is the lifeblood of college football's best rivalries.

It's a far more significant concept, however, when there's parody between a pair of programs.

Minnesota won't find itself in that situation Saturday at Iowa, no matter how badly it wants to avenge last year's 55-0 whipping, the team's final matchup in the Metrodome.

The Gophers rushed for seven yards that night.

Beyond some of the lopsided stats, however, is what the loss symbolized. The Gophers still have a very large pond to cross before they can sail with the true Big Ten contenders.
