What's the loudest you have ever heard Kinnick?

[srams21]

For me it was the 2004 de facto BIG championship game against Wisconsin. It finished in the cold dark night, and the place was going nuts. It was the 3rd consecutive 10 win season in Kirk's revival of the Hawks. Matt Roth went wild that night and must have sacked Wisconsin's shitty QB ten times. I recall Tate hitting Clinton Solomon after doing a spectular Houdini like escape in the pocket for a long TD. Place was unhinged.

I wasn't at the Iowa-Michigan legendary '86 game and also missed the epic OSU beatdown in 2017. Both of those were crazy from what I was told.

Penn State 2021, three straight false starts. I was also at the 2004 Wisconsin game. The new north end zone now makes everything louder.

 

[The-Dude-Abides]

Iowa vs Penn State in 2021. Sitting on the north side of the east sideline. I could not even hear the person next to me shouting at the top of his lungs. Those repeat false starts were absolutely beautiful.

 

[DooBi]

I only went to games for a couple years in the late 90s so mine is going to be different than anyone else's I'm sure. It was homecoming and we were playing Indiana. It was the 4th qtr iirc and we had the lead but Indiana was driving. Then Tom Knight picked off a pass and returned it to the house to seal the victory. That place was like an earthquake. It was awesome.

 

[Hawkfan_08]

That is a great one for sure. I was bringing it in the student section that game!

Single moment- Pick 6 by Hooker to start the Ohio St. drubbing.

Game- game vs PSU with the consecutive false starts and Frankling whining like a punk about it. That was the biggest single season game I had ever been to because it was #2 vs #4.

 

[hawkeyetraveler]

Penn State 2021 and nothing else comes remotely close. The next day I had completely lost my voice and my ears were still ringing. It was glorious.

 

[markfromj]

Moment? Greenwood pick late in game…north end…Wisconsin 2010. (We lost).

Game? PSU 2021.

 

[markfromj]

I wasn't at the Iowa-Michigan legendary '86 game…

85.

Definitely 2021 Penn State. I was in the north end zone, and it was so friggin awesome. The false starts, Nico's TD, all awesome. Get goosebumps thinking about it.

 

[ThorneStockton]

I haven't attended that many but as a student in 2008 vs PSU is the top. Also remember it being very cold and my booze blanket wearing off.

 

[lucas80]

PSU for sure. I'll throw in the game versus Michigan where Jim Harbaugh was the QB going into the north end zone, and Iowa received a penalty for the fans being too loud. Probably the dumbest f*****g rule the NCAA ever implemented.

 

[DirtyJohns97]

For me it was Iowa-Michigan 2003

I think we were #3 going into the game.

 

[UNIHawkfan]

Wasn’t at PSU ‘21, but had season tickets from ‘03-‘18 and the loudest *moment* I heard was in the 2010 Wisconsin game when Greenwood intercepted a pass. The stadium absolutely erupted. ‘04 Wisconsin was great, but there wasn’t another singular moment like that interception in ‘10.

 

[Capital1Hawk]

Penn State 2021, three straight false starts. I was also at the 2004 Wisconsin game. The new north end zone now makes everything louder.

Was at both as well and my vote was the Wiscy game. Was in North end zone for Penn St and South end zone for Wiscy. Those pricks brought roses to a road game.

This. That field goal landed two rows from us. Cold as fvck.

That one was great. We were in the student section and started storming the field after Murray's kick, but there were a few seconds left on the clock. They made half the student section climb back up and jam into the first few rows. Re-stormed the field right after the kick return.

 

[EasyHawk]

2021 PSU. 2016 Michigan was great too.

 

[Greenway4Prez]

As a few others have said, Greenwood’s pick against Wisconsin. I thought the place was coming down.

 

[83Hawk]

This is the correct answer.

 

[St. Louis Hawk]

2004 Wisconsin
1985 Michigan
1984 Michigan - the Iowa has 19 Michigan has zero and Iowa has 26 and Michigan has zero chants were fantastically loud and unique.

Western Michigan 2007

[CJ Beat Hard]

Penn state 2021 was nuts

Ha! Too soon.

 

[Bank of Hawk]

Loudest moment: 2002 Purdue when Banks hit Clark for 95 yards. As Clark ran free the place blew up like never before.

Yep, a friend of mine was one of the first drunks out there on the field. I just stayed in the stands and soaked it in. Don't recall too much after, but did puke in the ped mall that night though, nearly positive that was the only time.

 

[ICWestfan]

Versus Michigan in 1985.

 

[StormHawk42]

I haven’t been to enough big games to have been there for the huge moments.

But this is the loudest Hawkeye moment I’ve witnessed in person.

Too soon, asshole.

Too soon, asshole.

What you talking about? The game ended on that play of course.

It was like 75 all week and then that day was like 20. Most of us were in green t shirts and freezing our tits off. However, the next week vs Purdue felt even colder.

 

[SSG T]

Ha! Too soon.

I mean, the boos were pretty damn loud

 

[BubsFinn]

Maybe Trick-or-Treat Iowa City.

That Murray kick was the loudest I've ever heard Kinnick. I know it wasn't Kinnick but the CJ Jones opening kickoff in the Orange Bowl was defeaning. I'll add one that's not related to the thread but the victory over UNI in 2009 is the weirdest Kinnick experience I've ever had. The stadium was so quiet after the game you wouldn't have known Iowa had won if you didn't know any better.

 

[QChawks]

2021 PSU
2003 Michigan
2004 Wisconsin

 

[HawkNester]

I have been to World Series games, NBA Finals game at Oracle in Oakland when the Warriors beat the LeBron Cavs. Nothing, and I mean nothing comes close to the 2021 Penn St. game. That was the loudest sporting event I have ever been to. I can’t even imagine how loud Kinnick would be if they matched the South end zone structure with the North end zone.

 

[Hawgk]

‘03 Michigan when we came back to beat them 30-27 was probably the best/loudest I’ve seen the crowd from start to finish. Nobody sat down the entire game in our section.

2021 PSU for sure. Shoutout to that '02 Purdue game. So much fun

I damn near tripped over a TV cable. Probably would have been trampled to death.

We also almost left at half because my (no pic) wife (gf at the time) refused to bring a thick coat and she was freezing. So I gave her my coat, shoved my hands in my pocket and froze my ass off. So glad I did.
