With Iowa State threatening to score and tie the game, Iowa safety Kaevon Merriweather forced a turnover. As Cyclone running back Jirehl Brock pushed his way toward the end zone from the Hawkeye 1-yard line, Merriweather jarred it free of his grasp.

Linebacker Logan Klemp recovered the fumble in the end zone for a touchback, halting the Cyclones’ most productive drive of the afternoon and giving the Hawkeyes the ball 20-yard line.
