Recap
The Minnesota Golden Gophers edged out the Iowa Hawkeyes 13-10 in a defensive slugfest at Huntington Bank Stadium. In a game that featured 177 plays but precious few points, every yard was earned the hard way as both Big Ten defenses dominated throughout. This classic Iowa–Minnesota battle came down to execution in critical moments, with the Golden Gophers making just enough plays to secure the narrow three-point victory at home. Field position and discipline proved everything in Minneapolis, where the margin between winning and losing was razor-thin. Minnesota's defense stood tall when it mattered most, preserving the hard-fought conference win over their rivals.
