The Iowa Hawkeyes football season kicks off this Saturday September 3 at 11:00 AM at Kinnick Stadium. The Hawkeyes face Tennessee Tech and the game is televised on the Big Ten Network.
There’s always a preseason buzz in the air. Personally I don’t go to the football games (you’ll find me at the Library on kickoff day!) but I do enjoy the anticipation leading up to the football games. I also have an appreciation of the Hawkeye legacy and enjoy the food at the tailgaters I attend.
The Library has many wonderful resources to help you prepare for the football season. If you are interested in exciting moments in Hawkeye sports, search the Library’s catalog (click on the Word/Phrase Tab) for “Iowa Sports History.” Or check out the “Go Hawkeyes” sound recording to listen to the Iowa Fightsong and other great moments in Hawkeye History.
If you want to watch an interview with the legendary Hayden Fry, navigate to the Library’s streaming video collection and select the entry for Hayden Fry. Or if you need some ideas to plan for an awesome tailgate food spread, search Catalog Pro for “Tailgate Parties.”
If your idea of a perfect Hawkeye Football Saturday is to escape from the chaos with a great book or a trip out of town, we can help you with that too 
Count on the Iowa City Public Library to help you prepare for football season. Go Hawkeyes!
