IOWA CITY - Iowa football coach Kirk Ferentz says he has never seen a quarterback struggle like Ricky Stanzi did on Saturday and then come back and lead the team to victory with 4, 4th quarter touchdowns.

Stanzi threw five interceptions, 4 in the 3rd quarter against the Hoosiers. Then he and the Hawks got hot and won it 42-24.

As Marvin McNutt put it, "You don't do this in 9 games without a leader. Rick is a leader."
