In researching games for this week’s #TBT featuring the Indiana Hoosiers I came to something of a revelation: the Hoosiers have handed Iowa some heartbreaking losses over the years despite the Hawks having a 44-28 advantage in the series.
Even in my short life following the Iowa Hawkeyes, Indiana features prominently in my own list of memorable disappointments. My sister’s wedding was on the same day as Indiana’s 31-28 upset win in 2006. There’s a picture of me and my grandpa at the back of the church sharing a pair of headphones listening to the radio call.
