Iowa announces Kinnick Stadium field design will include Tigerhawk in 2017
Iowa’s home field is as traditional as they come.
But the field design at Kinnick Stadium will get some color in 2017.
The Hawkeyes announced on Monday that there will be a Tigerhawk in the middle of the field beginning this season:

Iowa will install the new Tigerhawk in the middle of the field when the new FieldTurf is laid down in the coming weeks. That’ll mark the first time Iowa used a logo on the playing surface since the conclusion of the 1980 season.
Live coverage of Iowa’s FieldTurf removal and installation process can be seen on a live webcam on hawkeyesports.com/swarm17.
Iowa’s new Tigerhawk will make its debut in the 2017 season opener on Sept. 2 against Wyoming at 11 a.m. CT on Big Ten Network.
