Most for an opener since 2001. WE ARE BACK!!!

Chicago State was the first team to experience what back was like.

I know everyone misses those 43-38 barn burners of years past, but it's kind of fun to watch this one.

is that tickets sold or a$$es in seats?

Gotta be tickets sold. Carver Hawkeye looks EMPTY.

Lickliter's team would have put points on this team. Probably not 90+ though.

Many left early. No surprise.

I would say Iowa had solid 9,000 in the seats and that number slowly has trickled lower since about the 8 minute mark of the second half.

I counted 12,895 but I think there were a couple guys in the sh!tter.

True, but I can't remember sitting through a web telecast watching Todd's teams play. During the those years, half the time I didn't know/care when they played.

This is so true. There were times that I didn't even know they were playing. Almost even pulled the trigger today on paying for the internet feed.
