/ Iowa Capital One Bowl Finale, January 1, 2005 - Referred to by some as the
most memorable moment in University of Iowa Hawkeyes Football history, this audio
clip captures the closing moments of the 2005 Capital One Bowl Game where Iowa
quarterback Drew Tate threw a 56-yard touchdown pass to Warren Holloway on the
final play to snatch a victory from the LSU Tigers. (A photograph of this exciting
catch may be found in the photo section of this page.) This is an awesome recording
to be cherished by any Hawkeye fan. University
of Iowa Hawkeyes Fight Song - Just hearing the opening bars of The Iowa Fight
Song is enough to get any self-respecting Hawkeye sports fan or alumnus on their
feet, clapping and singing at top volume. You can download the song here and sing
along right at your computer. If you don't remember the words, don't worry - we
won't tell. The lyrics are as follows: The word
is "Fight, fight, fight for Iowa!" Let every loyal Iowan sing.
The
word is "Fight, fight, fight for Iowa!"
until the walls and rafters
ring (Go Hawks!).
Come on and cheer, cheer, cheer, for Iowa!
Come on and
cheer until you hear the final gun.
The word is "Fight, fight, fight
for Iowa!" until the game is won! On
Iowa - Not as well known as the Iowa Fight Song, "On Iowa" is another
great University of Iowa song. The Iowa Hawkeye Marching Band played this song
as they marched down field for every pregame show. You're excused if you don't
know the words to this song; the lyrics are below.
On Iowa proudly at the fore
On Iowa on for evermore
Ev'ry loyal son
will give
A Rousing toast to you
Ev'ry loyal daughter loves you true
On Iowa with your wealth untold
A heritage to us you did unfold
Love of
family, love of friend
Love of country too
Makes us proud for what you
stand
Our Dear Old Gold.

Referred
to by some as the most memorable moment in University of Iowa Hawkeyes Football
history, Hawkeye fans call it simply "the catch." This photo captures
the moment at the 2005 Capital One Bowl Game where Iowa quarterback Drew Tate
threw a 56-yard touchdown pass to Warren Holloway on the final play to snatch
victory from the LSU Tigers. The reactions by the players and coaches in the background
of this image tell the story. (Note: An audio recording of this exciting catch
may be found in the audio section of this page.) More coming soon for this
