>>Iowa 55.
>>Minnesota 0

As a Penn State fan I guess I can take some solace in seeing the Hawkeyes, in their Steeler uniforms, opening up a can-o-whoop on someone. But I sure wish the Nittany Lions had done their jobs that day.

Iowa was lucky winning that game by a point, for sure. Hayden Fry adopted the Steelers look when he arrived and turned a nothing team into a contender.
But as an LSU pal said a few years ago, the difference was, the Tigers played 59 minutes of football and the Hawks played 60.

I feel the same way but Iowa wanted it more. A championship caliber defense does not give up 2 scores with the possibility of a national championship on the line. It is still a great year though.
