It’s August, and that means we’re less than a month away from the beginning of the 2018 NCAA football season. No. 8 in our opponent previews is Penn State.

History

The last time Iowa beat Penn State in State College, Kurt Warner was leading the Arizona Cardinals to the Super Bowl against Pittsburgh, the Yankees won the World Series and Kobe Bryant was NBA Finals MVP.

2009 was quite a while ago, huh?

That game, that messy, rainy, chest pain causing game will always be one of my favorite Iowa wins.
