Iowa quarterback Phil Suess, at 6-5 known as Ichabod Crane, will miss the last four games with a cast on his gun arm. He endured a bruised kidney earlier, led the team in passes last season, set a likely Big Ten and NCAA mark for consecutive passes without an interception, and ends a fragile season as teammates scramble to salvage a 5-6 record.
