FED EX Orange Bowl 2010

Believe it or not, it was the coldest Orange Bowl in history! 50 degrees at kickoff and 50 degrees at our house. Who would have thought in January that Colorado Springs could have the same weather as Southern Florida?!?!?!

Anyway, we were ready!! Dressed in Hawkeye apparel all day, people commenting at the stores and we walked around with an attitude that said, "Don't mess with the Hawks, we're gonna win!"

Well, if you missed the game, you missed a lot! "Stanzi the manzi" unbeaten all year (when he played) was on his game, looking like Chuck Long. These looked like the Hawks from years ago!

Bottom line, the Iowa Hawkeyes won their first Bowl game in 19 years. It's a sign of things to come! GO HAWKS!!
