.The Iowa Hawkeyes are actually stroking their injuries from a stunning 20-19 rivalry loss versus the Iowa Condition Cyclones.Even with locking out the Cyclones in the 1st half as well as leading 13-0 at halftime, the Hawkeyes' disappointing second-half efficiency left onlookers along with lots of questions.One of those was actually Iowa head regulation football coach Kirk Ferentz's decision to opt for a two-point conversion shot.After Iowa Condition scored its 1st touchdown of the day along with a 3-yard goal grab from elderly Jayden Higgins along with 8:48 left behind in the 3rd fourth, Iowa reacted with a 7-play, 79-yard drive that ended with a 3-yard touchdown run from jr operating back Kaleb Johnson.Along with the Hawkeyes leading 19-7 after Johnson's touchdown plunge and 4:47 continuing to be in the third fourth, Ferentz and Iowa decided to try for a two-point sale to likely expand the Hawkeyes' trigger 21-7.The two-point go stopped working as graduate quarterback Cade McNamara could not connect with fresher pass receiver Reece Vander Zee in the corner of the end area.After that, Ferentz was asked about his selection to try for the two-point transformation." Yeah, I indicate, I assume possibly the argument will be is it prematurely, that type of trait. That placed us at 19-7. I believed it provided our team our finest opportunity to gain the soccer activity, and to me the greater concern is our company not a minimum of obtaining one touchdown out of those two field goal chances. We possessed the ball down inside there close. That is actually obviously a region we are actually mosting likely to have to improve," Ferentz mentioned.The logic for seeking the two-point conversion try makes sense. Turn the two-point go and also Iowa State would certainly have needed a set of touchdowns and also extra indicate tie the volleyball activity.As An Alternative, Iowa State redshirt fresher secret Kyle Konrardy's 54-yard field goal wound up as the game-winner rather than embodying a prospective game-tying basket attempt if the Hawkeyes had chosen for a PAT try earlier.Contact/Follow us @HawkeyesWire on X and also like our page on Facebook to observe on-going coverage of Iowa updates, details and also opinions.Comply With Josh on X:@JoshOnREF.
