Ep 027: Iowa Basketball Exhibition Game History with USSR (1978-1986)
from Hawkeye Recap - History of Iowa Hawkeyes Football and Basketball · host Hawkeye Recap
I decided to dig into Iowa men's basketball exhibition game history against USSR. There were 4 games played in 1978, 1979, 1982 and 1986. USSR won 3 times, and Iowa one only once (the first game in 1978). I recap all 4 games and explain some of the history of this series. There are also some cool video clips in the article you can check out. Links from the podcast: Hawkeye Basketball Exhibition Games vs USSR (1978-1986): https://hawkeyerecap.com/article.asp?id=18 Intro music is "Roll Along Iowa" and the outro music is "Hawkeye Victory Polka" (aka "In heaven there is no beer!")
