Start with psu:
1. Middle/early in the 4th quarter, not sure on this but I think psu still held a lead. Franklin showed a great feel for the flow of the game when he called TO and subsequently went for it on 4th down from his own 42(?). If he had punted or failed to convert, the momentum would definitely have shifted decisively. A lot of coaches would've punted, and that was possibly his most important sideline call of the game.

2. Riding superman to a win: again Franklin made right call. He coulda dinked his way to similar yardage but by inflicting Barkley psu didn't cede complete control to the Iowa D.

Now Iowa:
1. Phil parker rotating that DL through 99 plays in regulation with little drop-off. That was a masterpiece. Shows he's learned some great lessons.
