Of all the things that happened Saturday, the best photo I took is the one on the cover. I don’t know this young man’s name. He is a leader for the Minnesota band. I’m sure he has a formal title, but I am ignorant.
He was standing on a ladder, surveying all before him after the game was over. Minnesota fans had rushed the field. Another trophy won. 9-0 for the first time since 1904.
They did the “We Hate Iowa” chant several times.
I feel like his expression tells the entire story of that game.
