In the same way a four-year starter for the Iowa football team wishes to end their career with a fulfilling sense of victory and accomplishment, I too want to leave the University of Iowa with something more than the intangible Hawkeye pride I’ve already possessed for years… I want bragging rights. In the context of football season, (holy porkchop, we’re almost a month into the schedule) bragging rights are represented through traveling trophies designated for each respective rivalry game.

Three NFL weeks have passed – please, slow down – and there are some teams that find themselves hot out of the gate, while others are still playing as if it’s the preseason. Remember, the games in September count just as much as the games in December. Here’s the first edition of Three Up, Three Down.

They were expected to be good….but this good? The addition … Continued
This day in age it is hard to stand out in the overcrowded job market, especially if you lack a certain degree of “professional” work experience that most recruiters look for on a resume.

Humphrey Metrodome. When two winless teams meet up, it is hard to call the result an upset, but in the case it is the perfect description. It is no secret that the being a fan of any Cleveland team is not easy, especially when it comes to the Browns. 2013 is proving to be more of the same Browns fans.

In a game that could have been over once Jacob Hillyer caught a 21-yard touchdown with 1:54 left in the 1st quarter, the Iowa Hawkeyes chased the Western Michigan Broncos out of Kinnick Stadium with a 59-3 victory. Western Michigan had won the previous two matchups in Iowa City but the Hawkeyes made sure the streak would end today. Iowa is now 3-1 heading into their Big Ten Conference opener in Minnesota next Saturday. Kevonte Martin-Manley led the rout with 184 total punt return yards. After returning his first punt of the game 44 yards to set up Iowa’s first … Continued
