It's 3-0 IL with about 2 minutes to go in the first half, and both teams are looking extremely sluggish right now.

Iowa dominating the game - had the ball went into Illinois territory on all 4 possessions, but could only muster a FG.

3-3 at the half.

Dominating? Are you sure you are watching the same game as I do? Last I heard they don't award points for yardage.

Of course you can dominate the game w/o scoring. Iowa has more than a 2:1 edge in time of possession, they've held Illinois' running game in check, and they're moving the ball pretty efficiently on offense. I understand your point, but the Hawkeyes controlled the first half.

Zook could've declined a holding penalty and made it 4th and 4, forcing Iowa to punt. Instead, he accepts the penalty and the Hawkeyes convert on 3rd and long. Hilarious.
