Iowa beats Penn State!
It has been a tough year for my Hawkeyes, they having lost four games by a total of 12 points. This afternoon, not two minutes ago, 5-4 Iowa beat Penn State, heretofore ranked #3 in the country, 24-23 in Kinnick Stadium. The crowd poured on to the field, and it looks happier in Iowa City right now than at the Obama rally on Tuesday night. Unbelievable. My weekend can only go down from here.

As a Penn Stater, I see it a disaster of historical proportions.
, atAt USC we were still tailgating, and we were thrilled!
, atI actually called this one in my blog on Friday. Of course having to Iowa for my undergrad years, I was a bit biased. Iowa is now likely to come here to Arizona for the Insight Bowl!
