#3 Goes Down

The unpredictability that is the college football season hit Iowa City, Iowa. Down 23-14 in the fouth quarter, the Iowa Hawkeyes beat the third ranked Penn State Nittany Lions on a Daniel Murray field goal with :01 remaining to give the Hawkeyes a 24-23 win and seemingly eliminate a Big Ten team from the BCS Title Game.

Just returning from a local night spot, Hawkeye fans are savoring the win, the first over a top five team since 1990. Ironically a member of that squad, John Derby was among those celebrating the victory at Eggy's in North Liberty. Quote of the night was directed from a female Hawkeye fan to Iowa Radio Voice, Gary Dolphin. The middle-aged lady said, "Gary, I'm having an orgasm just standing next to you."

This was the Hawkeyes sixth win in the last seven attempts over the Nittany Lions.
