Iowa's Cooper DeJean thought he had given his team the lead over Minnesota with less than two minutes to play on a punt return touchdown. But after review, referees called it back.
The Minnesota Golden Gophers won a low-scoring bout to Iowa, 12-10, on Saturday night. But the result looked to be a Hawkeyes victory late in the game until referees called back a controversial punt return. Iowa’s Cooper DeJean was set to receive a punt from Minnesota, which was deep in their own zone with 2:06 left to play in the game. The Hawkeyes’ defense forced a three-and-out, giving their offense an opportunity to go down the field with good position to win the game.
It ended up being that change of possession when referees ruled that DeJean was signaling for a fair catch after review. During the NBC broadcast, rules analyst Reggie Smith explained why this was the right call to make in the situation. 'Initially, the punt returner points at the ball, which is something that’s allowed. However, with his left hand. He begins giving the getaway signal, as you can see him waving here. This constitutes an invalid fair catch signal.
The loss for the Hawkeyes pushed them to 6-2 on the year, and 3-2 in Big 10 conference play. Minnesota, on the other hand, improved to 4-3 for the season.
