Short-handed Iowa Hawkeyes defeat Illinois: Charlie Jones jump starts scoring and Jack Campbell finishes it off

Published: Nov. 22, 2021, 1:11 p.m.

The Iowa Hawkeyes got off to a slow start against the Fighting Illini finding themselves down 10-0 after a strong Illinois opening drive followed by a bad snap on the next Iowa punt gave Illinois good field position to tack on another 3. Then former walk-on Charlie Jones kickstarted the Iowa Hawkeyes with an electric 100-yard return and the Hawks never looked back from there. Defensively, the team looked much improved in stopping a strong rushing attack than they did last week against Minnesota and they secure their 9th win of the season. We break it all down with former Iowa running back LeShun Daniels Jr.  Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Built Bar Built Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.
