Iowa misses a 51-yard kick, gets one more shot and goes 91 yards. Hank Brown finds Reece Vander Zee on the final play. Iowa 20, Michigan 19.

Two seconds, one snap, 16 yards. No. 17 Iowa beat No. 18 Michigan 20-19 in Ann Arbor on Saturday when Hank Brown hit Reece Vander Zee for a touchdown on the game's final play, the Associated Press reports via ABC News. It looked finished twice. Bryce Underwood's 49-yard touchdown pass to JJ Buchanan early in the fourth quarter put Michigan up 19-14, though the 2-point try failed. Then Iowa, lined up to go for it on fourth down at the Michigan 28, drew a false start, and Caden Buhr's 51-yard field goal went wide right with 2:33 left. The defense forced a punt, and the offense went 91 yards, helped by an unnecessary roughness penalty on Michigan on third down at midfield. Brown's 29-yard pass to Addison Ostrenga set up the last play with 2 seconds on the clock. "We prep for situations like these throughout the week in practice all the time," Brown said. "Why do you prepare for it? For a moment like that." Michigan had won 47 straight when leading at halftime, the longest active streak in FBS, and went 2 of 4 in the red zone while Iowa converted both of its trips inside the 20. Earlier, Braeden Jackson, son of former NFL running back Fred Jackson, took a kickoff back 99 yards. It's Iowa's first road win over a ranked Big Ten team since 2015, and the Hawkeyes are 4-0. Their reward is No. 7 Ohio State at home next Saturday. "We would've liked to run the clock out," Michigan coach Kyle Whittingham said. Coach's closing line: the game isn't over when you miss the kick. It's over when you quit, and Iowa never did.
