Purdue stuns Iowa late to snap 5-game skid

IOWA CITY, Iowa -- Paul Griggs drilled a 46-yard field goal as time expired and Purdue stunned Iowa 27-24 Saturday, snapping a five-game losing streak. Robert Marve threw for 266 yards and two touchdowns for the Boilermakers (4-6, 1-5 Big Ten), who won for the first time in Iowa City in 20 years. Purdue led 24-14 before Iowa (4-6, 2-4) rallied to tie the game with 3:32 left. But the Boilermakers stuffed the Hawkeyes on fourth down with 16 seconds left, and then drove 37 yards to set up the game-winning kick by Griggs. James Vandenberg had 190 yards passing and a TD for Iowa, which has lost four straight for the first time since 2007. Iowa got the ball back with 1:08 left in a tie game and moved 52 yards in 52 seconds. But a risky try on fourth down -- with a strong headwind leaving a field goal as a long shot -- gave Purdue just enough time to pull off a stunner.
