Iowa quarterback James Vandenberg had a much more entertaining holiday weekend than you did

Although the Iowa Hawkeyes limped to a somewhat disappointing 7-6 season in 2011, it’s hard to blame starting quarterback James Vandenberg for many of their problems. With a revolving door at running back, and the departure of the Hawkeyes best receiver from 2010 (Darrell Johnson-Koulianos), Vandenberg still managed to throw for over 3,000 yards in 2011, with 25 touchdowns and...

Three Options for New Cy-Hawk Trophy

A new sponsor last season for the annual Iowa State - Iowa game brought with it a new design for the trophy given to the winners. Remember this thing, right?   That led to a fan uproar over the design - for good reason - and the decision to do away the new trophy almost immediately after it was debuted. The response?  How about the "interim" Cy-Hawk trophy which...

Iowa assistant Reese Morgan switches sides

When Iowa defensive line coach Rick Kaczenski left for rival Nebraska after last season, Hawkeyes coach Kirk Ferentz predictably replaced him with someone he knew and trusted. The choice he made in filling that vacancy was a bit unorthodox: He asked assistant Reese Morgan to switch sides and coach the defensive line after nine seasons leading the offensive line. Even Morgan was...

Hawkeye fans pull off impressive card stunt

I’m not sure why this hasn’t been on our site yet, but I figured I’d be the right person to write about this. I was in attendance for this stunt and was pretty leery about how well it would work. The stunt depended on a lot of college students and football fans who had probably been consuming alcohol for roughly 7 or 8 hours before kickoff. I shouldn’t...

VIDEO: Iowa Hawkeyes fans pull off awesome patriotic card stunt

Typically, when you ask a group of 70,000 fans to do something in unison, you’ll get mixed results. Using cards to form patterns has been tried over and over again– sometimes it works like a charm and the results are really great, others it fails miserably.
