The Iowa Hawkeyes football players appeared to get the last laugh after a heated pregame exchange in the annual rivalry game against Nebraska.

Nebraska was rewarded for not shaking Iowa's hands by receiving yet another loss on the season. Just because the Cornhuskers are bowling does not mean they are the biggest baddy in the Big Ten. Iowa is still the far better program over them right now.

Following Iowa’s 13-10 win over rival Nebraska on Friday, Hawkeyes linebackers Jay Higgins and Nick Jackson called out Cornhuskers head coach Matt Rhule and the team’s captains for their pregame antics. “So we immediately knew what type of game this was,” Higgins said.
