The University of Iowa - Kinnick StadiumBR>This panorama, photographed by James Blakeway, spotlights the Iowa Hawkeyes football team playing a Big 10 Conference rival for a win and possession of the Floyd of Rosedale bronze pig trophy. One of the most famous trophies in all of college football, Floyd of Rosedale dates back to 1935, when Minnesota-Iowa governors agreed to award their state's prize pig to the winner of the football game. This game also marked the opening of the conference season in Iowa City and, the first time since 1979 that Iowa hosted Minnesota on Homecoming. Founded in 1847, The University of Iowa is the largest university in the state, with more than 30,000 students, but the smallest public institution in the Big Ten.
Saturday afternoon on campus, on a beautiful fall day, cruising to victory over the Minnesota Golden Gophers...it doesn't get any better than this! From the action on the field below, to the ecstatic crowd and unique stadium architecture, it's all here - the entire scene from the historic day in Iowa City, looking absolutely fantastic for your wall. Printed in brilliant color and perfect focus on high-quality paper stock, and complete with a sharp white border that includes the official team logo and a brief descriptive paragraph, this is both a beauty for the wall of home or office, and a great collector's item for years to come. Perfect for the wall of any fan of Hawkeyes football and big-time Big Ten action!
