Rutgers Report: A Rutgers fan in Hawkeye-land

Are you eagerly anticipating the Big Ten season kick-off on September 3rd? For me, time is moving so s-l-o-w-l-y. So what does a fan do during the lull between training camp completion and kickoff the following week?

Simple: ROAD TRIP.

Last week I visited the home of another Big Ten member—the Hawkeyes—of Iowa City, IA. Iowa City is a great college town. It is twice the size of New Brunswick, and like Rutgers, the school is the town’s major industry. Even the suburbs have plenty of University of Iowa buildings housing healthcare to research. The school is omnipresent.
