30 YEARS AGO TODAY: THE BIGGEST KICK IN IOWA FOOTBALL HISTORY

Happy Houghtlin Day, everybody!

Sorry, Messrs. Kaeding, Murray, and Koehn. With all due respect to your great work and the clutch kicks that you made that sent us into fits of delirious joy, there's only one choice for the biggest kick -- the greatest kick -- in the history of Iowa football. And it just so happened to take place 30 years ago today.

October 19, 1985. #1 Iowa. #2 Michigan. Kinnick Stadium. The biggest game in in the history of Kinnick Stadium? Very probably. #1 versus #2 games are rare creatures to begin with. #1 versus #2 games involving Iowa -- and hosted at Kinnick Stadium, no less -- are even rarer.
