| Keeping in tune with Holiday Bowl tradition, BYU and the Hawkeyes battled it out in a game that went down to the final minutes. With 4:19 remaining in the game, BYU quarterback Ty Detmer led his team from 77 yards out. After six plays, the Cougars reached the Hawkeye 18-yard line. The ensuing play resulted in Detmer's only interception, and the first tie in Holiday Bowl history. In what was the lowest-scoring Holiday Bowl affair, BYU netted 430 yards in total offense to Iowa's 346. Detmer completed 29 passes for 350 yards, two touchdowns and one interception. |

In three Holiday Bowl appearances by the Hawkeyes, the total point spread was two points, with one-point victories in 1986 and 1987 and this tie. |
