Iowa's defense might be as good as any in America. The Hawkeyes' offense is lagging way behind though, and that inconsistency is threatening to submarine their season. Mekhi Sargent ran for a 14-yard score with 2:16 left and 23rd-ranked Iowa held off Pur due 26-20 on Saturday, snapping a two-game losing streak. Tyler Goodson scored his first career touchdown from a yard out and Keith Duncan kicked four field goals for the Hawkeyes (5-2, 2-2 Big Ten), who also broke a two-game skid against the Boilermaker s (2-5, 1-3). "Really happy with the level of effort and perseverance," Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz said. "Obviously we're still working on finding a better rhythm offensively."Purdue made the Hawkeyes - who entered the game as a 17-point favorite - e arn this one. The Boilermakers cut it to 19-13 on J.D. Dellinger's 36-yard field goal with 2:59 left. Purdue was assessed a personal foul after squibbing the ensuing kickoff to midfield, though, and runs of 21 and 14 yards by Sargent gave the Hawkeyes th e cushion they'd been looking for all day. Jack Plummer's 1-yard TD pass to Payne Durham with 24 seconds left made Purdue the first team this season to score 20 on the Hawkeyes. But Iowa secured the onside kick and survived -- and Wisconsin's stunning lo ss at Illinois gave an unexpected boost to the Hawkeyes' hopes in the West Division race. David Bell caught 13 passes for 197 yards and a touchdown for Purdue, which ran for just 33 yards after entering the day 129th out of 130 teams in rushing. - AP Col lege Football

Mekhi Sargent feels like a smarter running back. It's no coincidence then that he had perhaps the best game of his young career with 91 yards and a touchdown in helping the 20th-ranked Hawkeyes beat Miami (Ohio) 38-14 in their season-opener on Saturday n ight. "Last year I was more so playing off talent and not knowing so much how to read defenses or being patient," Sargent said. "Now I feel like my knowledge of the game, understanding concepts makes me feel more comfortable."Iowa coach Kirk Feren tz also liked what he saw from Sargent. "(Sargent) is more decisive (and) you can see he's a lot more confident out there," Ferentz said. "From the sideline (the run game) looked pretty good. It looked more like what we're shooting for. I thought all the backs that were in there ran decisively." Nate Stanley threw for 252 yards and three touchdowns and ran for 20, including a 16-yard keeper for Iowa. The Hawkeyes got off to a slow start, but that was erased by the consistent ground game and some big pla ys from Stanley, who finished 21 of 30 in Iowa's sixth straight season-opening win. - AP College Football
