IOWA 28 NEBRASKA 20 : IOWA HAWKEYE FOOTBALL IS PERFECT

Iowa Football is perfect.

I'VE BEEN AN IOWA FAN ALL OF MY LIFE. I'm 39 years old this September. When I was a small child my dad put a Herky the Hawk bird in my bedroom. The type of Herky you hang from your car's rearview mirror.

I was born into a Hawkeye family. My grandfather drove a semi-truck five days a week in the 1950s but on Saturdays would come and he'd hop in the car or on the train and make his way to Iowa City. When his son was old enough he brought him along.
