If kinnick isn’t ready, we would be glad to host the game.

The report says the field has now drained. More rain later in the week but I don’t know how severe it’s supposed to be.

There may have been damage. One photo looked like bubbles on the field. The field is the 2nd field turf for Iowa and this is Year 2 I believe. They added the Tiger Hawk, along with The Wave, last year.

The bubbles almost look fake as they are in the shape of footballs some of them. My guess it will be fine come game day, but I remember when they use to have grass there and the drainage problems then. A lot worse.
