	#15 Iowa Hawkeyes (10-2)

No. 15 Iowa blanks Minnesota 12-0

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) With a bronze pig on the line, No. 15 Iowa put a new twist on winning ugly - this time by taking a game that featured more punts than points.

James Vandenberg threw for 117 yards, fellow freshman Brandon Wegher ran for a touchdown and Iowa kept alive its hopes for a BCS bowl bid by beating Minnesota 12-0 on Saturday.

The victory gave the Hawkeyes (10-2, 6-2 Big Ten) double-digit victories for the first time since 2004, along with Floyd of Rosedale - the pig trophy awarded to the winner of the border rivalry - for the eighth time in nine tries. (MORE)
