Junior quarterback Nate Stanley threw a career-high six touchdown passes to lead Iowa to a 42-16 Big Ten win at Indiana on Saturday.
Stanley completed 21 of 33 passes for 320 yards and his touchdown passes went to five different receivers.
Iowa (5-1, 2-1) has won two straight following a heartbreaking home loss to Wisconsin on Sept. 22.
Sophomore quarterback Peyton Ramsey went 31 of 42 passing for 263 yards and a touchdown in defeat for Indiana, which lost its second straight.
Indiana (4-3, 1-3) took a 3-0 lead on a Logan Justus field goal on the first drive of the game, but it was mostly Iowa after that.
Stanley hit T.J. Hockenson for a 9-yard touchdown pass that made it 7-3 Hawkeyes with 7:15 remaining in the first quarter, and then Stanley threw a 28-yard touchdown pass to Noah Fant to give Iowa a 14-3 lead with 1:21 left in the first.
Indiana closed within 14-10 on a 33-yard touchdown pass from Ramsey to Ty Fryfogle with 12:17 left until halftime, but Iowa scored 21 unanswered points after that.

Iowa amassed 479 yards of total offense and outrushed Indiana, 159-67.
