Johnson's performance was nothing short of extraordinary. He hauled in 12 passes for 225 yards and two touchdowns, while also rushing for 56 yards and another score. His impressive display helped lead Iowa to a convincing 34-16 victory over their Big Ten rivals.

In the post-game press conference, Johnson made headlines with a bold claim. "I believe we can win the National Championship this year," he declared confidently. "We have the talent, the coaching, and the determination to make a run at it."

Johnson's claim has drawn mixed reactions from the football community. Former Iowa Hawkeyes player and current ESPN analyst Matt Leinart said, "Keagan is a confident young man, and his belief in this team is inspiring. But they have a lot of work to do if they want to reach their ultimate goal."

Iowa has not won a National Championship in over a century. Their last title came in 1921, when they defeated Columbus Panhandles 28-0. Since then, the Hawkeyes have come close on several occasions, but have been unable to claim the ultimate prize.

The Hawkeyes still have a long way to go before they can seriously contend for the National Championship. They face several tough opponents in the Big Ten, including No. 5 Ohio State and No. 14 Penn State. However, if they continue to play with the same determination and skill that they showed against Minnesota, anything is possible.
