Can't add my Google account in iOS

I would like to sync my Google calendars with iCal on my iPhone. When I go to add my Google account in Settings -> Mail/Contacts/Calendars, I click on "Google", enter my Google account email and then password, and for a split second the screen to select which things to sync flashes, and then it goes back out into the Mail/Contacts/Calendars screen where it shows my synced accounts, but still not my Google account. Why can't I get my Google account to show up in iOS? I have it on my OS X iCal with no problem. Looks like I can sign into it on my Mac no problem, but not on my iOS devices. Suggestions?

It also helps to ensure that mobile data is turned on for “Settings” under Mobile Data>Settings
