Today's Tidbit... The 1925 Iowa-Wisconsin Snow Game's 33 Fumbles

I published a story about a week ago regarding WSUI, the University of Iowa's radio station, and its coverage of football games in the 1920s. I noted that WSUI only broadcast the first four games of the 1925 season, which led a reader, Bill Claypool, to suggest they might have missed the Wisconsin game due to the game being played in a blizzard.

Whether the snow and wind had anything to do with the radio station missing the game is unknown, but it was among the more bizarre games in Big Ten history. The game was a mess. There were no drives. Just one mistake after another, followed by a punt.
