Hawkeye football

This point of interest is making headlines for another reason.

He's the first Hawkeye to win two big awards in the same season.

Iowa's home opener will look and sound very different, but a tradition started four seasons ago will continue.

Saturday's opener will mark the beginning of a new era at quarterback.

It's an early start my friends.

It's been nearly 40 years since twin brothers started in the same game for the Iowa Hawkeyes. That will likely change Saturday night.

Iowa already has nine former players in the Hall of Fame, but that number could be going up.

It's the first time in NFL history that two tight ends from the same college have both been drafted in the first round.

Iowa is now ranked in both of the national polls.

It's been quite a first two weeks for this Hawkeye, who isn't even a starter for the undefeated Iowa Hawkeyes.
