Evy's final season as football coach at Iowa was another memorable one. In 1960, Iowa overcame a fierce schedule and finished the year 8–1 and ranked #2 in the AP poll. Iowa's only loss came to Minnesota, which finished #1 in the AP poll before losing the Rose Bowl. However, Iowa defeated Ohio State on the last game of the conference season to clinch a share of the league crown with Minnesota. It was Evy's third Big Ten title at Iowa. Evy's nine years as a head coach at Iowa were wildly successful, and Forest Evashevski was eventually inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame.
