The gov's statement is included below. I also checked around to see if any of the Republican gubernatorial candidates mentioned either team after the games last night. I found only two.
GOVERNOR CULVER CONGRATULATES #6 HAWKEYES ON HISTORIC 8-0 START TO SEASONHere are the messages from the 2 Republicans:
DES MOINES –Governor Chet Culver issued the following statement of congratulations to the University of Iowa football team on their best start to a season in 120 years, after defeating the Michigan State University Spartans 15-13 tonight in East Lansing, MI:
“I want to congratulate the Hawkeyes on not only a great win tonight, but by making history with their 8-0 record, the best start in 120 years of football at the University of Iowa. Tonight’s game was an exciting way to continue Iowa's undefeated start. Coach Ferentz and his staff, Ricky Stanzi, Marvin McNutt and the entire team showed great leadership, and that success comes from never giving up. I wish the team the best of luck for the remainder of this exciting season.”

Chet not praising the Cyclones? Doesn't surprise me.
I think they better quit worring about sports and pay attention to what they are getting paid to do. other wise get out and let some else get the job done
