Hawkeye football fans quickly buying up Outback Bowl travel packages

Sports

December 6th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

An Iowa City company is keeping busy as Hawkeye football fans book their trips to the Outback Bowl in Tampa, Florida. Winebrenner Red Carpet Travel works with the University of Iowa’s Alumni Association to help people get to bowl games. General manager Terry Tegen told KCRG-TV that travelers who plan to fly to Tampa need to book their trips now “Do it quick, because we watch for scheduled air and it is selling out quickly,” Tegen said. “You have to get your package booked real fast, because otherwise there is no air transportation.”

ui-football-2016Winebrenner Red Carpet Travel offers two different packages. The first is a three night deal that costs $1,995, and the other is a four night stay that costs $2,095. The company sold out of the most expensive option on Monday and Tegen expects the three night option will sell out today (Tuesday). The Iowa Hawkeyes will meet the Florida Gators in the Outback Bowl on January 2, with the kickoff at noon (Iowa time).

Iowa overpowers Stetson in 95-68 win

Sports

December 6th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Cordell Pemsl muscled in 21 points Monday night as Iowa snapped a four-game losing streak with a 95-68 victory over Stetson. Isaiah Moss, a redshirt freshman, pumped in five 3-pointers and also scored 21 points for Iowa (4-5). Peter Jok collected 15 points, eight rebounds and seven assists for the Hawkeyes.

Leo Goodman led Stetson (4-6) with 14 points. The Hawkeyes got off to a fast start and had a 14-2 lead a little more than four minutes in. Iowa led 44-28 at halftime and raised the margin to 30 points at 90-60 on another 3-pointer by Moss, who finished with a career high in 3-pointers and points.

Iowa had surrendered 100, 92 and 98 points in its last three games, including a stunning 98-89 loss to Nebraska-Omaha, but the Hawkeyes played a much tighter game against the visitors from Florida.

AMES, Iowa (AP) — Deonte Burton scored 20 points and No. 25 Iowa State pummeled Nebraska-Omaha 91-47 on Monday night, snapping a two-game losing streak. Donovan Jackson had 15 for the Cyclones (6-2), who hit 15 of 29 3=pointers and rolled to their third win of 40 or more points this season.

Iowa State knew it had to take the Mavericks (4-5) seriously after they stunned Iowa on Saturday. The Cyclones never let Omaha think it had a chance, storming ahead 36-9 after just 12 minutes.

Iowa State, which fell six spots in Monday’s AP Top 25 poll but remained ranked for the 61st week in a row, held the Mavs to 28 percent shooting. The Cyclones, not typically known for their defense, have held three of their last four opponents to 56 points or less. Tra-Deon Hollins had 13 points to lead the Mavs.
