.The Iowa Hawkeyes are licking their wounds from an impressive 20-19 competition reduction versus the Iowa State Cyclones.Despite shutting out the Cyclones in the first half and leading 13-0 at halftime, the Hawkeyes' unsatisfying second-half functionality left sightseers with lots of questions.One of those was Iowa mind soccer coach Kirk Ferentz's choice to go with a two-point conversion go.After Iowa State scored its own 1st goal of the day along with a 3-yard touchdown grab from elderly Jayden Higgins with 8:48 left in the third fourth, Iowa answered with a 7-play, 79-yard drive that finished along with a 3-yard touchdown run from jr running back Kaleb Johnson.With the Hawkeyes leading 19-7 after Johnson's touchdown jump as well as 4:47 continuing to be in the 3rd quarter, Ferentz and also Iowa opted to pursue a two-point conversion to potentially expand the Hawkeyes' result in 21-7.The two-point go neglected as graduate quarterback Cade McNamara could not get in touch with freshman pass receiver Reece Vander Zee in the section of the end region.After that, Ferentz was asked about his selection to pursue the two-point conversion." Yeah, I imply, I think possibly the discussion would certainly be actually is it too early, that form of point. That placed us at 19-7. I presumed it provided our company our best opportunity to win the volleyball video game, and to me the larger issue is us not at the very least getting one goal out of those 2 basket chances. Our team had the sphere down inside there close. That is actually undoubtedly an area we are actually going to need to improve," Ferentz pointed out.The reasoning for seeking the two-point transformation try makes sense. Change the two-point go and also Iowa Condition would require a set of goals as well as extra indicate tie the volleyball activity.Instead, Iowa State redshirt freshman twist Kyle Konrardy's 54-yard field goal ended up as the game-winner as opposed to standing for a potential game-tying basket make an effort if the Hawkeyes had elected for a PAT make an effort earlier.Contact/Follow our team @HawkeyesWire on X and like our page on Facebook to adhere to on-going coverage of Iowa information, keep in minds and point of views.Comply With Josh on X:@JoshOnREF.
