Iowa vs San Diego St. - Hayden and company down 21-13 at the half. I just saw after watching Nebby choke. I think I'll stick around to see how it plays out.

Keep watching. It's gets exciting.
Amazing how many close games Iowa has played in over the years. Unbelievable.

Oh I Know. This was a classic. I know/knew several of those guys back then. Iowa now ahead. 36-35 two mins left. Bringing on Haughtlin in about a minute40.

It really was a beautiful offense that Fry and Snyder ran in the 80s. Not sure why we don't run it now with the "standing" tight ends and the vertical passes.
Can you imagine Hayden's offense in the 80s with Kirk and Norm's defenses of the 00s. Unstoppable.

I certainly loved this game, but why don't they show the '87 Holiday Bowl ever? That was a 1 point game, plus we've seen the '86 Holiday Bowl about 100 times. Actually the '84 Freedom Bowl is a game I have never seen and rarely even a highlight of, wish they could track that one down.

ESPN Classic has run the 1987 Holiday Bowl game a few times. I would really like to see the 95 Sun Bowl vs. Washington.
