Back to Practice

After a day off from the practice field, the Hawkeye football team was back at it on Sunday. It is Tuesday of game week.

Today members of the media were able to attend the first 20 minutes and get all the video and pictures they could take.

The Outback Steakhouse Blimp made its first appearance over the University of Tampa practice site.

Outback Bowl Team Dinner

The first meeting of the two teams was at the Tampa Convention Center for the Outback Bowl team dinner sponsored by Outback Steakhouse. Platters of Bloomin' Onions, Steaks, Chicken and Ribs floated throughout the room satisfying everyone's taste buds. Below Iowa Head Coach Kirk Ferentz has a word with the Old Ball Coach, Steve Spurrier of South Carolina.

Plates and plates of food circulated throughout the convention hall.
