IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) - All week long, the question dogging Iowa was its ability to regroup after being crushed by top-ranked Ohio State. The 19th-ranked Hawkeyes responded Saturday, with Drew Tate throwing for 253 yards and a pair of touchdowns in a 47-17 victory over Purdue.
Damian Sims, in his first career start, rushed for two scores and a career-high 155 yards for Iowa (5-1, 2-1 Big Ten). Adam Shada had a 98-yard interception return for a touchdown, the longest in Hawkeyes' history.
"I was just saying that after the Ohio State game, we're going to have to play on, no matter good, bad or indifferent," said Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz, whose team was beaten 38-17 at home by the Buckeyes.
